A damaged duke. A misunderstood duchess. A marriage forged in the fires of obligation.


When Jane Hadley weds the enigmatic Duke of Heartland, neither of them could foresee the shadows that their union would cast. Bound by duty rather than desire, their marriage becomes a battlefield of concealed emotions and hidden resentments. Little did they know, their marriage would be tested in ways they could never imagine.

Amidst the lavish ballrooms and grand estates of Regency England, Jane and Edward's marriage is a facade of perfection. But as Jane unravels fragments of Edward's past, she uncovers a mystery that threatens to unravel not just their marriage, but their very lives. Edward, tormented by the ghosts of his past, retreats from their life together, leaving Jane to confront the silence and secrets that now define their bond.

As Jane awaits his return, she harbours a secret of her own-one that could change everything. Their reunion, fraught with tension and unresolved feelings, forces them to confront the choices that have brought them to this pivotal moment. Will their love survive the test of deceit? 

Of Love and Deceit is a gripping tale of love, passion, and the enduring quest for redemption. For fans of Regency drama and passionate romance, this is a story where love's true test lies in uncovering the depths of the heart. Dive into a world of hidden desires and untold truths, where every chapter promises to draw you deeper into a tale of intrigue and suspense.

If you enjoyed Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, you'll love Of Love and Deceit.
