From workhouse shadows to soaring hope
Left on a church doorstep in a winter storm, Madeline Mayfield is born into hardship. Raised by strict nuns, then cast into the brutal workhouse, she learns how to survive.
London's streets offer no mercy. Hungry, hunted, and alone, Maddie faces a future with no escape... until a stranger offers her a way out.
At Thornwood Hall, she enters a world of quiet wealth, trained falcons, and buried grief. But safety comes with its own dangers-especially when she meets a man haunted by loss.
As past wounds resurface, Maddie must choose: keep her heart guarded... or risk everything for love.
A gripping Victorian romance of survival, hope, and second chances.
