From award-winning author Diana Bold, DARK DESIRES is the sixth book in UNMASKING PROMETHEUS, a new series set in the glittering world of Victorian England, where secrets abound and passions ignite. Mandrake Blackstone, the resolute Assistant Metropolitan Police Commissioner, finds himself entangled in a web of suspicion and treachery. A haunting suspicion gnaws at him, casting doubt on his own brother, Viscount Danbury, who he believes may be the elusive and ruthless killer known as The Viper. Determined to uncover the truth, Drake is faced with a daunting task. How can he apprehend his own brother without solid evidence? The weight of his duty presses heavily upon him, threatening to consume his every thought. Yet, when fate intervenes, Drake's world is turned upside down. Kidnapped, Drake finds himself held captive alongside Heather Fields, a beguiling lady's maid. The very presence of this spirited young woman challenges Drake's beliefs and forces him to question the line between right and wrong. As the walls close in around them, a forbidden connection grows, defying the boundaries of their social divide. In the midst of danger and uncertainty, love blossoms between Drake and Heather. Their hearts become entwined, igniting a passionate flame that burns brighter than any code of ethics or duty. But as their bond deepens, Drake faces an agonizing choice. Should he forsake all he has fought for in the name of justice and choose love? Or must he sacrifice his own happiness to uphold the principles that guide his life? In this enthralling tale of loyalty, betrayal, and forbidden desire, Mandrake Blackstone must confront the ultimate test of his convictions. Can he navigate the perilous path between his duty to the law and the call of his heart? Will he find the strength to unravel the truth behind The Viper's reign of terror, even if it means confronting his own flesh and blood? And when faced with an impossible choice, will love triumph over all, or will duty prevail, leaving their hearts forever entangled in a web of longing and regret?
