A Masquerade for the Baron: A Regency Historical Romance

By Ruth A. Casie

He proposed to the wrong woman... but found she was the one he could never let go.

Lady Leticia Salisbury never intended to capture Lord Ashcombe's attention-or his mistaken proposal-at Sommer-by-the-Sea's grand masquerade. Yet a single stolen kiss sets in motion a fragile engagement, a partnership built on secrets, and a choice that could cost her everything.

Gabriel Ashcombe returned from war with scars deeper than any battle could leave. A barony to restore, a regiment of loyal men at his back, and a dangerous secret society to unmask. What he did not expect was Leticia-brave, perceptive, and far too willing to risk herself when shadows close in.

The brooch she inherited from her mother is no simple heirloom. It bears the mark of the Order, a symbol others will kill to possess. When danger closes in, Leticia does not retreat-she draws the threat to herself-forcing the enemy into the open, whatever the cost.

Together, they must navigate whispered betrayals, ruthless enemies, and their own wary hearts. Trust does not come easily, but neither does love.

A Masquerade for the Baron is a sweeping Regency romance filled with intrigue, stolen kisses, sharp banter, and a love forged in danger. Secrets may divide them, but when the truth is revealed, it is not fate that decides their future-it is choice.
