In the mythical land of Talamh Glasosh, orphaned Moira endures years of cruelty as a servant before running away to chase a dream of wealth and status. Along the way she marries a kind farmer and then abandons him and their newborn daughter to pursue her ambitions. Years later, now the noblewoman Lady Nuala, her secrets resurface and her ruthless half-brother sets out to destroy her. A sweeping clean romance about ambition, regret, second chances, and the daughter caught in the middle. A Cinderella-style rise from abused servant to noblewoman—but the heroine is no saint, making it a compelling, morally complex read. Perfect for readers who want emotional, dramatic romance with zero explicit content. A story told across two generations: the mother who ran from love and the daughter given the chance to fight for it. Celtic-flavored fantasy setting with castles, masquerades, and a satisfying (if bittersweet) justice-served climax. “On my word, you take off running east, find a safe place to hide, and then wait for me. I promise I will find you.” Perfect for a reader who loves clean, emotionally charged historical/fantasy romances with a Cinderella-adjacent premise, morally complicated heroines, and a bittersweet happy ending.
