Noble Secrets

A dangerous man from her past. A handsome duke in her present. Secrets that threaten their future.

Her new life’s mission -- keeping recalcitrant professor, Edward Bailey, on task after a shattered heart renders him broken and destroyed. But Fate isn’t done with Pauline. The same vicious man from her past sets his malicious sights on her, shattering her safe haven. Christopher Bailey, the Duke of Waltham doesn’t see an escape from a broken past and a lifetime of mistakes until he meets alluring commoner Pauline Danahue. Christopher finds himself helpless against Miss Danahue’s exceptional charm, but as their love blossoms, danger closes in, threatening Pauline and Christopher’s lives. Together, they are forced to face their biggest fears, revealing secrets that could ruin them both. Noble Secrets is the prequel novella to Cecilia Dominic's clever Aether Psychics steampunk series. If you like strong heroines who strive to define their destinies, a touch of magic, and more than a hint of romance, you'll love the Aether Psychics.
