  Eleonora of Somerset Hall: A Victorian Romance of Love, Betrayal, and Freedom 
  In Victorian England, Lady Eleonora Somerset is trapped in a gilded cage where her beauty is a commodity and her future a transaction. But beneath her exquisite gowns beats a heart yearning for a fierce, untamed freedom. A loveless marriage teaches her that to survive, she must take control. Her rebellion begins with a stolen, forbidden book, awakening a desire that will change everything. 
  Her quest for freedom leads her from a passionate affair with a charismatic officer to the ruthless salons of Paris. There, she must choose between the intellectual dominance offered by an enigmatic Marquis and the raw power of an American industrialist. 
  Eleonora becomes a formidable queen of her own making, a master of money and influence. But as her power grows, she discovers her throne is the most gilded cage of all, forcing her to confront the heartbreaking cost of the love she abandoned. 
  Perfect for fans of sweeping historical romances with strong female characters, complex moral dilemmas, and the intricate social worlds of Downton Abbey and Philippa Gregory. 
  Will Eleonora find redemption, or is her empire of ashes the last testament of a heart that learned too late?
