Once Upon a Midnight Dream (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781966087007)

His forgotten past might shatter her future...

Captain Layton Westbrook has lost everything-his identity, his past, and the life he once knew. Left battered and near death after a violent attack, he awakens in a quiet countryside school, his mind a blank slate. Haunted by fragmented memories and a single vow never to trust again, Layton finds himself drawn to the serene presence of the woman who saved him. But shadows from his past are closing in, and danger may strike before he can uncover the truth.

Lillibet Granger has dedicated her life to Kelston Hall Children's School, nurturing orphans with the love she never knew. As the illegitimate daughter of a viscount's sister, her position is precarious, but her compassion and quiet strength have earned her respect. When she finds an injured man on the school grounds, her instincts urge caution, but his vulnerability stirs something deeper. Yet Lilly knows better than to dream of love-a plain, practical woman like her has no place in a hero's world.

As Layton's memories begin to surface, so do threats that could destroy everything Lilly holds dear. The future of her beloved school hangs by a thread, and Layton's hidden identity could be the key to saving it-or the cause of its downfall. In a world where trust is fragile and love demands the ultimate risk, will they defy the odds and seize a second chance at happiness? Or will the secrets they hold tear them apart forever?
