What Daniel wants, Daniel usually gets. Not this time.
Daniel Stanton has been blessed with everything. Charming, confident, and devastatingly handsome, he is the heir to the great Stanton fortune, and accustomed to getting whatever he desires. At four-and-twenty, he has enjoyed more than his share of amorous adventures, including one tantalising encounter with a man that left him questioning his true inclinations.
Those questions are answered the moment he meets Ambrose Cranshaw, his grandfather’s estate manager. Daniel wants him. And what Daniel wants, he usually gets.
Not this time.
Ambrose Cranshaw is everything Daniel is not. With no fortune and no influential connections, he has worked tirelessly to support himself and his younger sister, earning his position through sheer determination. Though he harbours forbidden longings of his own, Ambrose knows better than to act upon them. The risks are far too great.
From their first meeting, Ambrose recognises Daniel as a danger to everything he has built. One careless glance, one moment of weakness, could bring his carefully ordered life crashing down. And so, at all costs, Ambrose must hide the feelings he dares not reveal.
The Viscount’s Forbidden Love is the concluding novel in The Stanton Legacy series, an MM historical romance set in Victorian England, filled with yearning, angst, and steam, and featuring a hard-won happy ending. While it can be read as a standalone, it is best enjoyed as part of the series.
