What Readers Are Saying
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"I cheered and laughed all the way to the HEA."
⭐⭐⭐⭐
"An author who knows how to keep the story lively, engaging and entertaining all at the same time."
She struck him with a bronze statue and ran.
Lady Elizabeth Ashworth had no choice — not when Lord Mordaunt's hands were at her throat, not when his threats made clear that their betrothal would end in her ruin. She brought the statue down, fled into the Yorkshire storm, and tumbled into a ravine where the moors swallowed her whole.
She woke in the arms of Lucian Rothwell, Earl of Thorncliff — a man she'd never met, with eyes too sharp to fool and a voice that demanded her name. She told him she couldn't remember.
Lucian doesn't believe her. But the bruises ringing her throat keep him from pressing, and her defiance keeps him from looking away. He calls her Anne — because he has to call her something. She steals his clothes. Crashes his dinner table. Fights him for every scrap of dignity a woman without a name shouldn't possess.
He shouldn't want her. She's reckless, secretive, and clearly running from something. But when she looks at him like he's the only solid thing in her world — when she lets him close enough to see the fear she hides behind that sharp tongue — he's lost.
And Lizzie? She's falling for a man who doesn't know her real name. Every day at Thorncliff, the truth grows more impossible to tell. Because the woman he calls Anne is a fiction, and the real Lizzie is wanted for what happened in Mordaunt's library.
If she stays, the truth will destroy them both. If she runs, she loses the only man who's ever made her safe.
Some lies are built for survival. Some loves are worth the ruin.
Perfect for fans of Lisa Kleypas, Julia Quinn, and Scarlett Scott.
