Duty & Desire - Eloise and Theo Reimagined

Eloise has always been different-too opinionated, too restless, too unwilling to accept the life society has laid out for her. She has watched her siblings marry for love and duty, yet she has never been able to picture herself in the same fate. Until now.

It starts with a letter.

And then another.

And another.

A reckless, undeniable exchange between her and Theo, a man she should never have met, never have sought out, never have fallen for. A man whose hands are stained with ink, whose wit is sharper than any blade, and whose presence lights something inside her she cannot name.

But when Eloise is sent to Sir Phillip's estate-a man far more suitable, far more accepted by society-she is forced to question everything. Sir Phillip is kind, gentle, and wholly devoted to the idea of winning her heart.

The only problem?

It is not his to win.

As Eloise battles between what is right and what is real, she must make a choice: a life of comfort with a man who could offer her everything-or the fire of a love that could ruin them both.

Because Theo was never meant to be an option.

And yet, he is the only choice she wants to make.

🔥 A story of stolen letters, forbidden love, and the kind of desire that refuses to be denied.
