The Duke wanted peace. His best friend bought him a companion instead. Now he's stuck with Rune: a beautiful, baffling houseguest who apologises for existing and has somehow become everyone's favourite person. The problem isn't sending her away. The problem is that Alexandre doesn't want to.

Lady Evelyn Ashbourne was meant to become the perfect noble wife. Instead, she woke up in the body of a man. Now the world believes she is ill but truth is far worse. In a kingdom built on reputation, noble alliances, and whispered scandals, one impossible secret could destroy everything House Ashbourne has left. A mirror. One missing night. And a mystery that should not exist. The problem isn't what happened. It's who knows it. ✦ Mystery ✦ Noble Drama ✦ Slow Burn Romance ✦ Hidden Identity ✦ Family Secrets ✦ Gothic Fantasy ❄️ New Chapters Daily
