Books like The Masquerade (de Warenne Dynasty) by Brenda Joyce
During the evening of her first masquerade, Elizabeth Anne Fitzgerald is stunned by Tyrell de Warenne’s whispered invitation for a midnight rendezvous in the gardens. For years she has worshiped this unattainable lord from afar. When fate intervenes, she is prevented from meeting Tyrell, yet that night marks only the start of their intricate dance of passion and mystery.
Two years later, Tyrell is surprised when Elizabeth arrives at his doorstep with a child she claims is his. Though he remembers her, he is certain he cannot be the father. Their game unfolds—Elizabeth’s experience or innocence is questioned, and scandal, deception, and pride threaten a love that refuses to be denied.
Set against a Regency backdrop, the novel explores themes of false personation, illegitimate children, and the powerful pull of hidden romance in a society of strict etiquette.
