The Duke’s Forbidden Mistress
(London Courtesans Book One)
Her past is a mystery. His future is already written. But their hearts have a different plan—will their forbidden love survive the truth?
After a brutal attack strips Leonie of her memory, she survives as a courtesan in a lavish London brothel. Though the men who seek her company are captivated by her beauty, they see her only as an object of desire—until Radley, the Duke of Atherington, steps into her world… and into her bed.
Radley is everything Leonie could never have: wealthy, powerful, and promised to another. Though betrothed to the socially perfect Miss Selbie, Radley cannot ignore the attraction growing between him and the mysterious woman who awakens a passion he thought lost forever.
As fragments of her memory resurface, Leonie begins to suspect her past is more entwined with Radley’s than she imagined. Bound by duty and torn by desire, Radley must face a future he never chose, while Leonie uncovers a truth that could destroy them both. A duke could never marry a courtesan, but can love defy their worlds?
