Seeking Persephone

To save her struggling family, Persephone Lancaster marries the feared Duke of Kielder, Adam Boyce; in his isolated castle, she seeks happiness, but his cold distance threatens any chance at love.

Though Adam remains distant and hard to understand, glimpses of kindness give Persephone hope; when news of a deadly sea battle shatters her world, their growing bond is tested by grief, distance, and an urgent rescue mission.

Adam tries to win over Persephone by inviting her brother to Falstone and hosting a ball, hoping to make her feel at home; though their bond deepens, she struggles to break through the emotional walls he keeps guarded.

A brutal accident in the forest leaves Persephone badly injured, forcing Adam to confront how deeply he loves her-and whether he's strong enough to set her free instead of keeping her close.
