The Duke Gave Her Glassworks to His Mistress—Then the Window Above the King Began to Crack

When Duke Adrian strips Duchess Celeste of the glassworks she spent twelve years building and gives control to another woman, Celeste loses her authority, her livelihood, and her reputation after being falsely accused of stealing royal silver. But when a newly installed glass panel begins cracking above the King’s chair, Celeste discovers forged accounts, stolen silver, falsified inspection orders, and a deliberate plan to make the deadly collapse appear to be her fault. Using the craft her husband tried to take from her, Celeste must expose the conspiracy, save the King, and reclaim her name—while Adrian confronts the truth that his ambition and resentment gave her enemies the power to destroy her. A gripping historical drama about betrayal, ambition, accountability, and a discarded duchess who reclaims her work and freedom without allowing her husband’s remorse to decide her future.
