Charlotte, The Case of Unspoken Love

A Regency Historical Romance of Second Chances, Secret Longing, and an Unexpected Marriage (The Defiant Ladies of London)

"Her pen confessed everything her lips dared not say."

I have always been content to linger in the shadows — a wallflower, a companion, an observer of other people's grand romances.
Never once did I imagine a love story of my own.

When Henry Latham — my childhood friend, my secret heart — returned from abroad and proposed a marriage of convenience, I agreed.
Not because he loved me.
But because, foolishly, I have loved him all my life.

I told myself friendship would be enough. That quiet companionship would soothe the longing I dared not name. Yet with every shared smile, every lingering glance, the line between duty and desire begins to blur.

As my secret world of written stories stirs whispers across London, I find myself standing at a crossroads:
Will I remain the invisible girl he married for practicality...
Or will I become the woman he cannot live without?

This was never meant to be a love story.
But perhaps — just perhaps — it always was.

Loved It

This is the second of the 7 Book series of the Defiant Ladies of London. I enjoyed the first two books and am sure that I will enjoy the other books.
