A forbidden love. A buried legacy. A world cloaked in envy, power, and lies.
Set in the heart of Victorian England, where decorum masks deception and privilege protects corruption, young Henry DeWitt inherits not only a dukedom but a centuries-old burden. After the sudden death of his parents, he is thrust into a world of influence and expectation, where grief is hidden behind cravats and emotion is a silent scandal.
Then he meets Mary Smith, a lady's maid whose wit and defiance challenge everything he's ever known. Their connection-impossible and perilous-ignites a quiet revolution in both their hearts. But love across class lines is only the beginning of the danger.
Within the ancient halls of Portland Manor, a dormant magic stirs-an ancestral power long concealed. As buried truths emerge, Henry and Mary are swept into a battle not just for their future, but against the envy, cruelty, and corruption festering within high society.
Beneath the Gilded Moon is a sweeping Victorian tale of love and legacy, where courage means defying class, confronting darkness, and daring to choose one's own fate.
