The Duke’s Secret Light
Duke Valerian Blackthorn is a feared and ruthless lord, known for his cruelty and cunning, yet beneath his dark exterior lies an all-consuming devotion to Isla Marlowe. She is the light in his shadowed world, the only soul he loves with a fervor that borders on obsession. Other women stir nothing in him; she is his first thought at dawn, his last prayer at night, his secret heartbeat. To the world, he is cold and untouchable; to her, he is both storm and shelter, darkness and hidden light, fiercely protective yet utterly loyal. Isla Marlowe, a kind and brave village girl, sees the goodness beneath his fearsome exterior. Though his intensity and possessiveness can frighten her, she feels the strange pull of a love so fierce it could consume or save them both, drawing her into the shadowed yet tender world he guards for her alone.
