A Raging Madness

Ella survived an abusive and philandering husband, in-laws who hate her, and public scorn. But she's not sure she will survive love. It is too late to guard her heart from the man forced to pretend he has married such a disreputable widow, but at least she will not burden him with feelings he can never return. She prays he will learn to tolerate her. Alex understands his supposed wife never wishes to remarry.
And if she had chosen to wed, it would not have been to him. He should have wooed her when he was whole, when he could have had her love, not her pity. But it is too late now. She looks at him and sees a broken man. He hopes she will learn to bear him. In a masquerade of marriage, Ella and Alex soon discover they are more well-matched than they thought possible. But then the couple's blossoming trust is ripped apart by an enemy determined to destroy them both.
Two lost souls must together face the demons of their past to save their lives and give their love a future.
