Innocent Alice is in desperate need of work to support her recently widowed mother and two younger siblings. At the recommendation of an aunt, she leaves the inner-city slums behind to accept a position as maid to Earl Sebastian Howard in pristine Mayfair, where a dark house haunted by secrets of the past is the least of her worries. Rumor has it, the reclusive master's previous maid is dead, and Alice is just one replacement in a long line of forgotten girls.As the days draw into weeks, in the confines of her new role, Alice's presence seems to disturb the Mad Earl and his gloomy routine. Surely, this lonely man with the gentle voice and inquiring gaze can't be as dangerous as they say? Indeed, when the arrival of spring delivers an unexpected invitation for Alice to join the master at his country residence, an unlikely bond blossoms fast between them behind closed doors.However, the master's peculiar affection soon becomes a hazard to Alice. Torn apart by her decision to leave Stanley Hall, the earl denies Alice a happy future and vows his revenge. Caught in her own downward spiral, Alice soon learns that the only things tighter than corsets in Victorian society are the lies that uphold respected family names.The heartache Alice believed was long over has only just begun. The master's untimely reappearance is a dangerous move, but who will pay the ultimate price? Is the ugly truth better than a pretty lie? Turns out, two really can't keep a secret...See what other Wattpad readers are talking about: Just read the whole book in about 9 hours (overnight). Fabulous read, just what my insomnia needed. Marion Jennings.Gigantic story with a superb narration. Truly fell in love with this work. Dandamudi Sasank. What a great read! This is one of the very few stories that I have ever read twice, and even on the second read I wasn't able to put it down. A. S. G. writes the story in another era, one that though I didn't actually live in it, I'm able to step into the main character, Alice's, shoes, and enjoy it from her perspective. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys historical fiction or gothic romances. Beth Chicago.One of the best historical romance books I've read in a long time! A. Sena Gomes will have you turning pages with her engaging characters and suspenseful plot. Tori JacklynRereading for the third time. This book is so addictive like I'm currently doing the house chores but all I could think is that what happens next in the story? Is it gonna be okay? This book is getting into me and I really love it. The story is so addictive that I've got to encounter sleepless night just to read this book. It's really amazing and I would really love to recommend this book to all of you. Please read until the end. It's really worth it! Great job Author! Congratulations! Mary Therese Eduave Mandamiento.
