Book
Mistress by Midnight
Merryn Fenner has spent years blaming Garrick Northesk, Duke of Farne, for the scandal and losses that damaged her family. When circumstances bring them together again, her determination to expose and punish him collides with an attraction neither can easily control. Their Regency romance is driven by old secrets, social reputation and a forced proximity that makes both characters question what really happened in the past.
The central tension depends on how incomplete knowledge hardens into certainty. Merryn has built her adult judgement of Garrick around events she believes she understands, while Garrick has reasons for allowing parts of the past to remain concealed. Regency rules of reputation and marriage raise the cost of admitting error, making the recovery of trust as important as the romance itself.
