A Scoundrel for the Rebellious Lady. Secret Lords and Ladies

Nightmares are the only memories Victorian Ashton has from her early childhood - if indeed they were memories at all - but her physical scars are real. Recently freed from a caged life at the mercy of a man posing as her uncle, she is wary of the world - and of men. No one would ever control her again - especially the rogue who'd stolen a kiss. When Ethan Vale helped a woman escape from an unscrupulous blackguard, little did he know her shrouded past would come back to claim her - and that he would lose his heart to someone who vowed never to love. When faced with a heartbreaking choice, both must decide where their future lay.
