Overview

“We were never meant to be seen. And yet, we burned.”

1880s Dublin. Behind the heavy velvet curtains of Georgian drawing rooms, three women navigate a world bound by etiquette and brimming with desire.

Diana Fitzgerald is a widowed heiress with a steel spine and an intoxicating secret. Genevieve Gallagher, a rebellious poetess, wields her words like daggers and her glances like fire. And Frances D’Arcy, the diplomat’s daughter returned from Paris, finds herself caught in the gravity of both.

When whispers become touches and propriety gives way to passion, the trio’s entanglement threatens to unravel the lives they’ve so carefully constructed. But in a world where reputations are currency, love may be the most dangerous risk of all.

Velvet Ties is a lush, emotionally charged historical romance about forbidden longing, feminine defiance, and the sensual power of choosing one’s own path—even when the world says no.
