When a jilted viscount marries a daring actress to salvage his ruined reputation, passion and pride collide in a love story that challenges every rule of Regency society. A witty, heartfelt romance about class, courage, and the power of choosing love over convention.

A jilted viscount. A daring actress. One scandalous marriage that defies London society—and ignites an unexpected passion.

When Galen Woodrow, Viscount Woodbridge, is abandoned at the altar before all of London's elite, his humiliation is complete. Determined to reclaim his honour, he proposes a shocking solution: marry Mademoiselle Margot Montclaire, a celebrated theatre actress whose beauty and independence have captivated audiences but scandalised the ton. Their union is meant to be a spectacle, a marriage of convenience designed to eclipse his disgrace. Yet as Margot steps into the glittering—and treacherous—world of Regency aristocracy, she brings with her a fierce loyalty to her ailing brother and a spirit that refuses to be tamed. Galen soon discovers that protecting his new bride from society's cruelty and her own dangerous past will demand more than duty—it will require his heart.

Saved by Scandal is a witty, emotionally rich Regency romance brimming with social intrigue, family drama, and the healing power of second chances.

Can a marriage born of scandal become a love worth fighting for? As enemies close in and secrets unravel, Galen and Margot must decide if their alliance can transform into something real—or if the forces arrayed against them will tear their fragile bond apart.
