Lady Grace Ravensdale is the darling of London society—beautiful, gracious, and a talented piano prodigy. It’s no surprise that when she becomes engaged to a handsome concert violinist, it promises to be the wedding of the season. But Grace harbors a dark secret that she shares only with the keys of her piano—she’s in love with the gardener’s son. And after years of believing he died in the Boer War, Teddy has returned. Theodore Nash grew up at Burton Hall in the shadow of the wild Ravensdales, loving Grace from afar until that one blissful summer. But nothing would ever change the fact that he's the gardener's son, and she's a proper member of society. Theodore didn't expect a hero's welcome after returning home from war anymore than he expected to hear of Grace's engagement. Now, he must decide to fight for her, or give her up for good. With all of society against them... can their love survive? Publisher's Note: The Lady's Forbidden Desire is inspired by The Secret Garden. It's a sexy slow burn, second chance romance between childhood sweethearts.
