A Viscount by Candleflame Ebook

Isolde Bray has never met a room she cannot light—or a gentleman she cannot answer. With her father’s candle shop threatened by debt, a Christmas commission in Derbyshire offers the chance to save her livelihood and put her own name on her work.

There is only one difficulty. Lucien, Viscount Damerel, has forbidden any candle to burn in a room he occupies.

Scarred by an accident and weary of society’s stares, Lucien intends to keep his house dark and his heart safely out of reach. He has not reckoned with a red-haired candlemaker who meets his gaze, challenges his rules and makes him laugh among the shadows.

Snowbound together, their midnight work becomes an intimacy neither expected. But Isolde’s former fiancé has followed her north with debts to collect and a reputation to destroy. As Twelfth Night approaches, the gallery must shine—or everything she has built may be lost.

To win a future together, Isolde must trust more than her own courage, and Lucien must choose whether love is worth being seen.
