Dreaming of You

In the vibrant, often dangerous world of Victorian London, Sara Feilding, a prim and well-bred gentlewoman, defies convention by venturing into the notorious gambling den of Derek Craven. Sara, an aspiring author who uses her pen to craft dreams, is drawn by a potent mix of curiosity and a duty that intertwines her fate with Craven’s. Derek Craven, a formidable and self-made Cockney, clawed his way from the depths of poverty to become the undisputed lord of London's most exclusive gambling house. His rise has left him fabulously wealthy but also hardened, cynical, and deeply suspicious of the world. Initially wary of Sara's impeccable manners and infuriating innocence, Craven finds his carefully constructed world irrevocably shaken. As Sara navigates the perilous shadows of his domain, she transforms from a 'proper mouse' into a captivating enchantress, igniting a powerful passion that challenges Craven's cynical core and offers the promise of a love he never dared to dream of.
