A Porcelain Viscountess by Hazel Linwood

“Take my hand and we’ll make it – I swear”
Phoebe Colborne, the Viscountess of Ridlington, is in turmoil. Her husband is a terrible man, who never misses a chance to embarrass, and terrify her. Desperate for a way out, she accepts her friend’s offer for help, no matter the cost…

Francis Gibbs, the Duke of Hayward, has sworn to never marry. Uninterested in any of the Ton’s happenings, he visits London after years of absence to see his beloved sister. When she asks a favor of him, though, he fears he might be going too far. For she’s asking him to shelter a married woman from her own husband…

Just as life starts to seem hopeful again for Phoebe, her old nightmares surface again. The demons of her past will not accept her happiness, and will do anything to grab her back in their claws. Francis must make an impossible decision soon: how far is he willing to go to protect the woman his heart is beating for, even if she isn’t his to begin with?
