The Lyon’s Shadow by Ruth A. Casie
One viscount. One virtuoso. One impossible beginning…
Once London’s most charming rogue, Marcus, Viscount Wolfton, returns with little more than a quiet heart and a young son who is the brightest part of his world. The mischief that once turned heads is gone… or so he believes.
A single melody proves him wrong.
Miss Lila Edgewood has spent years keeping to the edges of society, her music the one place she still feels whole. She has no intention of surrendering the independence she fought to claim. She expects nothing when she enters the Lyon’s Den, least of all a widowed viscount whose rare smile stirs something she thought she’d lost.
Their connection is immediate. Impossible. Undeniable.
But shadows do not stay buried.
And when the past reaches for Lila with a velvet voice and a dangerous intent, Wolfton discovers there is one thing he will not turn from. the woman who teaches his son to laugh…and him to hope again.
The Lyon’s Shadow is a slow-burn historical romance about a widowed father, a woman who chooses herself, and the kind of love that waits…until both are ready to stand together.
