A Cinderella for His Tormented Heart

A Historical Regency Romance Novel

Matilda Trevelyan has spent her life in the shadows, hidden away as the illegitimate daughter of an earl, relegated to the fringes of society. Freedom is a distant dream, love an impossible fantasy, until her father's unexpected decree of marriage offers a glimmer of escape. But is this an opportunity for a new beginning, or merely another gilded cage?

Captain Hugh Wexford, a hero of the Napoleonic wars, returns to a family shattered by loss and shadowed by scandal. With his brother gone and his nephew's future in his hands, he vows to unearth the truth. A timely invitation thrusts him into the heart of the ton, and into the path of a woman who ignites a spark of hope in his world of grief.

Bound by a forced alliance, Matilda and Hugh must navigate a labyrinth of secrets and burgeoning desires. As whispers of betrayal threaten their fragile connection, can a scarred soldier and a woman concealed by deception find love amidst the ruin of the past?
