Bed of Thorns

Elenore once lived behind castle walls as a nobleman's wife—respected, envied, and utterly trapped.What the world never saw were the bruises hidden beneath silk, the silence forced upon her, and the life slowly stripped away piece by piece.Until the night she ran.Rescued by Tristan, the quiet and commanding Lord of Ironwood, Nora is given something she never thought possible—freedom. But freedom comes at a cost.Because the man she escaped didn't just lose his wife.He lost control.And he will stop at nothing to take it back.As Nora begins to rebuild her life in Ironwood—finding strength, purpose, and a love she never believed she deserved—she uncovers a devastating truth: everything that was stolen from her wasn't just personal… it was power.Power that could shift alliances.Power that could start a war.Power that was always meant to be hers.Now, Nora must decide:Will she continue to run from the past…Or rise to claim the future that was taken from her?With danger closing in and loyalties tested, Nora and Tristan must stand together against a threat that could destroy everything they've built.Because this time… she's not just fighting to survive.She's fighting to reclaim her throne.
