He Accused Her of Ruin Before Finding Her Name in His Mother’s Secret Bible

She refused his private settlement and forced him to speak the truth before high society. When Cora Bell is publicly accused in the assembly ballroom, she refuses to beg for Lord Renford’s mercy or accept a quiet compromise. Leaving society behind, she journeys north to the storm-swept coastal village of Brackenhaven to rebuild her trade as an independent apothecary. But when an unread family ledger and a worn Bible reveal a long-buried truth, Lord Renford pursues her to the sea—facing an unyielding woman who will accept nothing less than full vindication.
