Romance Historical

What happens in the secret pleasure club is never meant for the light of day.

Effie Stanier has one summer of freedom before she must submit to her family's demand that she marry. One summer to explore her fantasies at Hedone, the secret pleasure club her friend runs in Brighton. When she meets a mysterious tradesman who stirs her as no man has, Effie gambles everything on the chance that he can awaken desires she's never dared to feel—though exposure will destroy her family and her future.

Jay Burnham, heir to the Brickmaker Baron, has spent his life straddling two worlds and belonging to neither. The charming nymph he meets on the seashore awakens a longing he thought he'd buried. The masked siren he meets at Hedone lights a craving he can't deny. He doesn't realize they're the same woman—and he's falling for her twice.

But Jay believes he's betraying one to have the other. And Effie has no idea the man behind the mask is the same one who's already stolen her heart.

When their secrets surface, the cost won't just be scandal. It will be each other.
