About the Book
Are heroes real…
Oliver Sommerset, Marquess of Astor and heir to a dukedom, has never been mistaken for one. But when his closest friend is murdered by the ruthless Welsh Earl of Penharrow, Oliver rides for the wilds of Wales with revenge burning in his blood — and a dying man’s last plea echoing in his heart: free the woman Penharrow holds captive.
Megan has forgotten who she was before him. Her real name. Her family. The life stolen from her when she was six years old. For over fourteen years she has survived as Penharrow’s captive and the last five his unwilling mistress, her hope ground down by cruelty, by failed escapes, and by the terrible price others have paid for trying to help her. She has learned not to trust powerful men.
Then a dangerous lord with cold blue eyes pulls her from Penharrow’s grasp and asks her to run.
Oliver is not the hero she imagined. He tells her plainly: this is revenge, not rescue. And as they flee through treacherous mountain terrain with Penharrow’s brutal henchmen closing in, Megan cannot silence the voice warning her that one captor may simply be the same as another. Oliver looks at her the way men always look at her.
But he also looks at her like she matters.
Pursued across the wild Welsh highlands, Megan does the most dangerous thing she has ever done—trust. Yet trust brings its own perils. When they reach the safety of Oliver’s privileged world, will he honour his promise and set her free? Or has she simply exchanged one gilded cage for another?
A dark Regency romance…
Trigger warning: This novel features a heroine escaping a long-term, restrictive imprisonment, featuring flashbacks to confinement and fear of her captor.
