Dances Before Dawn: An Edwardian Romance on the Edge of War

Eleanor never imagined waking in a world of silk gowns and glittering chandeliers, yet she’s suddenly thrust into Edwardian high society where polished smiles hide whispers of war edging closer each day. In grand ballrooms and starlit gardens, she must learn rules she barely understands.

And then there’s Captain James Harrow. Intense, magnetic, and far too perceptive, he sees through her in ways no one else dares. Their pull is instant, their attraction impossible to ignore but gossip travels fast, and the looming shadow of war threatens to end them before they begin.

As Eleanor and James steal fleeting moments in a world on the brink of change, every choice binds them tighter and risks everything they value. She carries a secret she can’t reveal. He shoulders a duty he can’t escape. Between longing and loyalty, between love and loss, both must decide what truly matters.

When history tilts against them, can their love survive the weight of time?
