Fourteen years apart. One night to change everything.
Ann Wake has spent over a decade in the countryside, quietly tending her books, her regrets, and the memory of a husband who vanished without a word.
On her thirtieth birthday, she comes to London with a single goal: confront the man who married her and walked away.
Edmund Wake, Marquess of Montfort, thought he’d done the honorable thing by leaving his too-young bride untouched. But Ann is no longer a girl.
She’s a woman now — sharp-tongued, determined, and aching for the one thing he cannot give her: a child. If he can’t satisfy her longing…perhaps his masked Grand Buck brothers can.
She came seeking answers. She found desire, devotion, and a husband who just might be willing to fight for her after all.
Claiming His Forgotten Wife is a standalone, 15,000-word steamy Victorian short romance featuring a long-separated couple, masked society debauchery, desperate yearning, and a hard-won happy ending years in the making.
