A magical Regency re-telling of Beauty and the Beast: Beauty is Minette de Saint Saze, a lovely innocent who must save her twin sister's honour at the cost of her own virtue. The Beast is His Grace the Duke of Rochford, a bitter man with a heart as scarred as his own, once handsome, face. Minette reluctantly takes her sister's place in Camer Castle, the lair of the Beast, where she learns to know the real man behind the cynical mask Rochford presents to the world. She longs to heal his terrible hurt, yet she knows that, for her sister's sake, he must never suspect that the girl who is falling in love with him is not the society Beauty who accepted his fortune and scorned his passion. As love flames into desire, Minette comes to understand that the only true happiness she will ever know is in the arms of this damaged man who does not, and never can, belong to her.

In a world where fantasy and magic intertwine, where destiny dances with the whims of fate, a tale of enchantment unfolds amidst the depths of an ancient forest. Within this magical realm, a prince yearning for adventure and a humble commoner longing for a better life find themselves inexplicably drawn to a mysterious event, an event that will forever alter the course of their lives. "The Enchanted Masquerade" invites you to step into a world of wonder and mystique, where hidden within the shadows of towering trees, a secret masquerade ball materializes under the moon's benevolent gaze. As whispers of its existence spread through the land, two individuals, Prince Rylan and Elara, find themselves captivated by its allure. Both bear dreams and aspirations that extend beyond the boundaries of their current existence, and unbeknownst to each other, they receive cryptic invitations, pulling them towards the heart of the mystical forest. Guided by fate and masked in anonymity, the prince and the commoner enter the ethereal ball, unaware that they stand but mere footsteps away from each other. As they glide across the dance floor, their hearts flutter with an unexplainable connection, a cosmic force that draws them inexorably together. Beneath the enchanting melodies and sparkling lights, they share a night of wonder, entwined in a magical dance that leaves an indelible mark on their souls. As the night comes to a close, Rylan and Elara part ways, their identities shrouded in secrecy, and return to their separate lives. Yet, destiny's threads are woven tightly, and the lingering sensation of the masquerade's enchantment lingers within their hearts, persistently tugging at their souls. Now begins a journey of discovery, as both protagonists embark on individual quests to uncover the identity of their mysterious dance partner. With every step, they draw closer, led by fate's guiding hand and a mystical guardian within the forest's depths. But not all paths are strewn with petals of roses, for a nefarious presence lurks in the shadows, seeking to exploit the masquerade's magic for malicious purposes. As Rylan and Elara draw nearer to each other, they also find themselves entangled in a dangerous web of deception and intrigue. Will true love conquer all? Can the power of the magical forest overcome the darkness that threatens to engulf them? And as destiny dances its final steps, will the prince and the commoner find their way back to each other's arms, united by a love that transcends time and reality? Join us on a journey through a world of wonder, where the boundaries of fate and free will blur, and where love and magic intertwine in "The Enchanted Masquerade." As the stars illuminate the night sky, and the ancient forest comes alive with secrets and enchantment, brace yourself for an unforgettable tale of romance, adventure, and destiny.

In Masquerade, Alfred F. Young scrapes through layers of fiction and myth to uncover the story of Deborah Sampson, a Massachusetts woman who passed as a man and fought as a soldier for seventeen months toward the end of the American Revolution. Deborah Sampson was not the only woman to pose as a male and fight in the war, but she was certainly one of the most successful and celebrated. She managed to fight in combat and earn the respect of her officers and peers, and in later years she toured the country lecturing about her experiences and was partially successful in obtaining veterans’ benefits. Her full story, however, was buried underneath exaggeration and myth (some of which she may have created herself), becoming another sort of masquerade. Young takes the reader with him through his painstaking efforts to reveal the real Deborah Sampson in a work of history that is as spellbinding as the best detective fiction.
