“Scars and wounds can heal through the power of love and acceptance, or maybe not?”
Lady Anastasia Gray, the daughter of the Earl of Graystone, longs for a love match in a world where status and wealth dictate her fate. With a kind heart and a passion for dance, she dreams of a future filled with joy and a husband who will cherish her. But as societal expectations and familial duty close in around her, Anastasia fears she may have to sacrifice her own happiness for the sake of obligation.
An elusive Duke of Willowick, Sidney Markham, hides behind a life shrouded in secrecy and pain, his heart walled off by the shadows of a past too painful to confront. But when Anastasia, with her quiet strength and unwavering warmth, enters his world, something stirs deep within him. The walls he’s so carefully built begin to tremble, and for the first time, Sidney dares to imagine that love might find him, even in the darkest corners of his soul.
In a world where appearances reign supreme and secrets threaten to shatter their bond, Anastasia and Sidney must fight for their chance at happiness. Against all odds, they will discover that true love has the power to create a masterpiece out of even the most broken of canvases.
* Step into the world of A Lady’s Beastly Duke, where grand estates, whispered secrets and unyielding passion set the stage for an unforgettable love story. This isn’t just another historical romance—it’s a tale where strong-willed characters face the rigid expectations of Regency and Victorian society, all while hiding desires too powerful to ignore.
No cheating, no frustrating cliffhangers, and a deeply satisfying happily ever after, this book offers a pure, heart-stirring romance that will leave you swooning and smiling long after the final page.
