“He hid from the world.She refused to look away.”After her father’s sudden death leaves her family facing ruin, Josephine Hartwell has only one hope left: the Duke who controls their future.But Alexander, Duke of Greymont, is not the man society remembers.Scarred by war and long withdrawn from public life, he rules his estate from the shadows, convinced that his presence brings only discomfort and pity. When Josie is summoned to Greymont Hall, she expects cold authority.She does not expect silence.She does not expect cruelty masked as protection.And she does not expect to see a man who believes himself unworthy of being seen.Josie’s warmth begins to change the household Alexander has sealed away, but kindness has consequences. Gossip stirs. Fear tightens its grip. And when Alexander chooses isolation over courage, Josie pays the price.Cast out and facing devastating loss, she must decide whether dignity can survive heartbreak… while Alexander learns that love withheld can destroy just as surely as love denied.To claim her, he must do what he has avoided for years: step into the light, endure judgment, and act, without knowing if forgiveness will ever be granted.A deeply emotional, clean Regency romance about courage, restraint, and a love made costly before it is made certain. No cliffhangers, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
