Angel of Mine

Tropes: Masquerade, second love

Release Date: October 1, 2024

Years after her husband’s death, Celine Hasket still visits his grave every day. There, she talks to Gabriel, and he replies through the breeze, butterflies, and the bird chirping high in the oak tree that shelters his resting place.

Despite her grief, Celine has forged a new life for herself from the ruins of his murder. Yet her days are monotonous, her future bleak. Everything changes when a steamy tryst at a masquerade awakens long-forgotten desires—and sparks a memory that may help her uncover her late husband’s killer.

Newly motivated, Celine begins an investigation with an unlikely ally who proves most distracting with his sharp cheekbones and brilliant eyes.

But passion isn’t the only revelation of her investigation. As danger grows ever nearer, Celine will have to choose whether to risk her heart again or grow old with Gabriel’s ghost—before his killer makes the choice for her.

In this newest installment to the Most Imprudent Matches series, Ally Hudson offers readers an encouraging tale of healing and courage. With a familiar cast of characters, Angel of Mine takes readers on an exciting journey where an umbrella is a deadly weapon, inconvenient passions ignite, and the ton’s expectations can hang.

Set a decade after the events of Devil of Mine, Angel of Mine continues Celine’s story—one of healing, rediscovery, and the courage to open her heart again. Where Devil of Mine ends in tragedy, this novel begins in renewal, following Celine as she learns that love, though changed by loss, can still bloom.

Angel of Mine is a complete romance with a hopeful, emotionally satisfying conclusion.
