The Duke's Return

Three years ago, Lady Elara Harrington buried the only man she ever loved. Now, on a storm-torn night, a scarred stranger arrives at Blackwood Manor... and he carries the same commanding presence, the same protective fire, and the same soul-deep pull as the duke she lost.

He calls himself Mr. Thorne.
A humble land steward seeking work.
Yet every glance, every quiet observation, every instinctive act of protection whispers a truth Elara cannot ignore.

He moves like Alistair.
He fights like Alistair.
He looks at her as if she is the last light left in his broken world.

But Alistair Thorne, Duke of Blackwood-the man she was meant to marry-died at Waterloo.

If this man is truly her lost duke, why does he hide behind a false name?
And if he is not... why does her heart react to him with the same fierce, unshakable love?

As danger creeps across the estate and betrayal coils close, Elara is forced to face an impossible question:
Has the man she loved returned from the grave... or is this a deadly imposter wearing her heart's favorite face?

For Alistair, survival came at a brutal cost.
Scarred, hunted, and stripped of his title by a traitor, he must protect Elara without revealing who he truly is. But one look at her-strong, determined, fighting alone to save his people-and the icy walls he built crumble.
He can hide his name.
He can mask his scars.
But he cannot silence the desire that has burned for her since the moment he fell.

Now, the truth could destroy them... or return a love powerful enough to defy death itself.
