Lord Beast

Rhys Ashcroft unwillingly accepted the title his father left him at his demise and was forced to resume his duties in England. Devilishly handsome, Rhys was in high demand by the women of the ton and his cruel perceptions of external beauty left many broken-hearted and bitter. After a near-fatal accident disfigures his face, he isolates himself in Falmouth castle and many presume him dead.

Danielle Carmichael held no expectations to make a suitable match and happily accepted her fate as a spinster. She resides in the country with her aging relatives with the spires of Falmouth Castle piquing her curiosity. Despite her better judgment, she explores the castle one evening and meets the hostile stranger who therein resides, becoming drawn to his cloaked features and icy rebuttals. Determined to befriend the dark and mysterious stranger, she returns day after day only to be met by his callous disregard.

Can her determination to befriend him eventually thaw the coldness of his heart?

Set in Regency England, this is a heart-warming story of one girl's perseverance and one man's acceptance of change and fate.
