The Duke’s Forsaken Bride
Synopsis
On the day of her wedding, Lady Isadora Everhart stood at the altar—only for her groom to never arrive. Humiliated before the kingdom, abandoned by the man she was meant to marry, she was left ruined, a stain upon her family’s honor.
Exiled to the countryside, Isadora vowed never to forgive him.
But when an assassin slips into her chambers with a chilling ultimatum—Marry the Duke, or you won’t live to see the next sunrise—she realizes her disgrace was only the beginning.
Killian Blackmoor returns, colder and more ruthless than before. No apologies. No explanations. Just a demand: marry him, and he will ensure her survival.
But Isadora is not the same woman he left behind. If she must stand at his side, she will uncover the secrets he hides. Why did he abandon her? What enemies now threaten them both? And why does she feel the pull of something far more dangerous than hate—something that feels like longing?
Vows were broken. Lies were spun. But in a world where loyalty is a weapon, marriage to the Duke may be her greatest act of revenge.
