Adrian Strathmore, a reclusive genius haunted by his past, leads a double life. By day, he is an enigmatic genius, revered for his intellect and eccentricity.

Scarred both inside and out, he finds solace in his hidden identity and the noble purpose it serves.

Consumed by her desire to know the man behind the mask, Vanessa pleads for him to reveal himself, to trust in her love despite his scars. But Adrian, deeply wounded and guarded, fears the vulnerability that accompanies unmasking his true self. Determined not to risk his heart, he pushes her away, willing to lose her forever rather than face the possibility of rejection. Desperate to break through Adrian's defenses and prove the depths of her affection, Vanessa resorts to an audacious act of blackmail. With their lives forever changed, they enter into a marriage built on deceit and shattered trust. As their relationship evolves and Vanessa's love for Adrian deepens, she struggles to mend the bonds she has broken and convince him that her feelings are genuine. Amidst the grandeur and splendor of Victorian society, Adrian and Vanessa embark on a tumultuous journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and the healing power of true love. Will Adrian find the courage to unmask not only his scars but also his heart, allowing Vanessa to see the man he truly is? Or will the shadows of their pasts forever keep them apart? MASKED INTENTIONS is a captivating Victorian historical romance that explores the transformative power of love, the resilience of the human spirit, and the beauty that lies beneath the masks we wear.
