Hiding in plain sight
When your life is destroyed by a faceless villain and the grief cuts so deep it could destroy you, there are two choices. Give up or fight. Lord Montgomery chose the latter. Society sees him as a bumbling fool, but in fact, Theo is far from it. With the return of his childhood friend, Lady Iris Challoner, everything suddenly changes. Though he risks exposure, his single focus of revenge has shifted, and the woman he soon realizes holds his heart has given him something he thought he’d lost long ago. Hope. Broken but never defeated Iris Challoner is a survivor. After her childhood friend leaves with the murder of his parents, she was devastated. Her life is about existing until escape comes in the form of marriage to a family friend. A man she thought she knew. She was wrong. After years of hell, his death finally frees Iris and her son from his tyranny. A letter sends her to London, and into society, and it is there she finds Lord Theodore Montgomery. Iris is shocked to see the man he has become. An effeminate fool. Or is he? She once knew Theo better than she knew herself. She is determined to see the real man behind the façade—regardless of the danger it plunges them into. Can two shattered souls find their way back to the people they once were, or will their past continue to dictate their future? |
