Peacock of Bodmin Moor

He arrived in Cornwall dressed like a peacock. He left it a legend.Nicholas Hawke, the dazzling Earl of Lanarth, comes to Bodmin Moor with a reputation for charm, extravagance, and secrets hidden beneath silk and wit. Beneath the finery lies a man on a dangerous mission: French luxury goods are being smuggled into Cornwall, and English state secrets are slipping out. Someone in the county is trading fashion for treason.Helena Trenoweth, daughter of a proud viscount, sees through Nicholas's polished façade from the moment he steps into her world. What begins as wary fascination becomes a perilous alliance as smuggling routes, coded letters, and clandestine meetings draw them both toward Penrose Cove—and toward the truth that could destroy Trevenna Hall.From storm‑lashed cliffs to glittering London ballrooms, The Peacock of Bodmin Moor follows a man forced to shed every disguise, and the woman who stands beside him when the tide turns. A Regency tale of danger, devotion, and a love forged in shadows.
