A runaway duchess desperate to heal her damaged soul.
The recent discovery that he is the illegitimate son of an infamous duke has turned Doctor Drew Hornsby's life upside down. Adopted at age ten by Viscount Hawkestone, Drew left his impoverished life behind, but he never forgot his roots. Now, as a physician, the memory of his late mother drives him to assist those in need. But he's not the only one...
Selena Seaton Woodhouse, the Duchess of Barnsdale, an arranged marriage to an older duke left her feeling empty emotionally. After years of dealing with her husband's cruelty, she runs away and becomes The Golden Angel, a mysterious lady who helps those less fortunate in London's most notorious slum. She hopes helping others will help heal her own heart. But that isn't touched until she meets the young, earnest Doctor Hornsby.
When Selena's charitable works run afoul of the local rookery boss, the spectacled, self-contained doctor turns into a ferocious protector. And as the danger heightens, so does their mutual passion.
But overcoming the obstacles standing in their way to a future together may prove to be a bit more difficult.
