His forgotten past might shatter her future…
Captain Layton Westbrook has lost everything—his identity, his past, and the life he once knew. Left battered and near death after a violent attack, he awakens in a quiet countryside school, his mind a blank slate. Haunted by fragmented memories and a single vow never to trust again, Layton finds himself drawn to the serene presence of the woman who saved him. But shadows from his past are closing in, and danger may strike before he can uncover the truth.
Lillibet Granger has dedicated her life to Kelston Hall Children’s School, nurturing orphans with the love she never knew. As the illegitimate daughter of a viscount’s sister, her position is precarious, but her compassion and quiet strength have earned her respect. When she finds an injured man on the school grounds, her instincts urge caution, but his vulnerability stirs something deeper. Yet Lilly knows better than to dream of love—a plain, practical woman like her has no place in a hero’s world.
As Layton’s memories begin to surface, so do threats that could destroy everything Lilly holds dear. The future of her beloved school hangs by a thread, and Layton’s hidden identity could be the key to saving it—or the cause of its downfall. In a world where trust is fragile and love demands the ultimate risk, will they defy the odds and seize a second chance at happiness? Or will the secrets they hold tear them apart forever?
Once Upon A Midnight Dream is book ten of the Chronicles of the Westbrook Bride series by Collette Cameron. It is with a heavy heart that I bid a fond farewell to this series. I have loved all of the books and I highly recommend them. I think it’s important to read the entire series in order. Cameron writes romantic, humorous Regency Era romance stories. Once Upon A Midnight Dream is book ten in the series. Captain Layton Westbrook has encountered and been abducted by a group of nefarious men. Only after being tortured does he manage a narrow escape. He stumbles onto the property of the Hall Children’s Home and is rescued by its proprietress Lilibet Granger. Lilibet finds his inert body early one morning. But once Westbrook awakens, he has no memory of who he is or why he is at a Children’s Home. I truly enjoyed this story. This is a sweet romance, so no steamy scenes.
