Masquerade of Hearts — Sheila O'Hallion

SOCIETY DECREED THEIR LOVE A SCANDAL, AND CALLED THEIR PASSION A CRIME...

She was Victoria Leggett, a proud beauty of unknown birth. In the gilded salons they whispered her name, as she stood by the side of the powerful man whose perilous vision she shared...

He was Edward, Duke of Bereshaven, cousin to the Queen. Torn between his duty to the British crown and the imperious call of his ancient Irish blood, he found delight and solace only in Victoria's embrace...

Together they would defy the scorn of a cynical, glittering world, risk a Queen's vengeance, and brave the deadly intrigues of James, Edward's twin brother. Together they would challenge destiny itself...to live the promise of their unconquerable love.

Hero: Edward Albert, Duke of Bereshaven
Heroine: Victoria Leggett
