A Steamy Regeny Romance

A desperate mother’s secret bargain. A handsome young heir. A passion that could burn Partington Hall to the ground.

Trapped in a cold, loveless marriage and surrounded by the ruthless ambitions of high society, Lady Sybil Partington lives in a gilded prison. With her husband’s health declining and his estate at risk, Sybil faces a devastating reality: her daughters, sweet Hetty and vain Araminta, could be left penniless.

When Stephen Cranborne—a handsome, financially strapped distant relative—arrives as the temporary heir, Sybil sees an opportunity. She strikes a desperate, secret bargain with Stephen to safeguard her daughters' inheritance.

What begins as a calculated act of maternal sacrifice soon ignites a forbidden, breathless affair. Bound together in darkness and desire, Sybil and Stephen risk complete social ruin as secret motives, hidden enemies, and shocking family revelations threaten to shatter their fragile paradise.
