The Devil's sons. Vol. 5

Description

When Eloise Somerset plunges into a cold, turbulent river, she expects only oblivion.

What she finds is 1840.

Disoriented, grieving, and stranded in a world ruled by rules she doesn't understand, Eloise awakens in a past that offers no place for a woman like her—a woman with fire in her soul and burdens on her shoulders. Alone and confused, she stumbles upon a crumbling estate housing four orphaned siblings clinging to survival. Desperate to protect them, Eloise steps into their lives—and into a future that isn't hers.

She never asked for this life.
She never imagined she'd fight to keep it.

But everything changes when she meets him.

He is powerful, guarded, and dangerously compelling. The master of the estate. A man whose very presence commands obedience—and ignites desire. What begins as a calculated arrangement to protect the children quickly evolves into something neither of them expected: trust, vulnerability, and a slow, agonizing unraveling of the walls between them.

Yet love is never simple. Not here.

In Victorian England, scandal lurks behind every curtain. And Eloise? She's a mystery. A threat. A woman with no past, no name, and no right to a future beside a man of title.

As passion deepens, so do the stakes. Eloise must conceal the truth about who she is and where she came from, even as the weight of her secrets threatens to destroy the fragile life she's built. When betrayal strikes and hearts break, she'll be forced to decide if love is enough to anchor her—or if her place truly lies in the world she left behind.

Then, one night, as she drowns in grief and rejection, the river calls to her again.

But this time, there's a choice.

To go back.
Or to stay.

To Stay is a powerful, slow-burn historical romance with elements of time travel, identity, and emotional reckoning. Steeped in sensuality, heartbreak, and fierce loyalty, it explores what it means to belong, what it costs to survive, and what love demands from those who dare to reach for it.
