Who's Thayli?
Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, Thayli brings to her writing the strength of someone who was reborn from hardship—after a turbulent period in her professional career, she found a new path through words. And what a path it is! With a degree in Hospital Administration and a postgraduate specialization in Psychology, Thayli combines her sensitive view of the mind and emotions with captivating plots marked by brave female protagonists, dukes and scandals, marriages of convenience, family secrets, and a good dose of passion. Her stunning debut came in September 2024, where happy endings became her trademark—but not without plenty of drama first.
What does she write about?
Thayli writes love stories that transcend time. Her historical romances delve into families defined by secrets, characters bearing deep wounds, and loves that blossom precisely where they were never meant to exist. Amidst balls, letters, unexpected marriages, acts of vengeance, forgiveness, and fresh starts, her stories explore people who must choose between their destined paths and the lives they truly desire. With intense characters, intertwined families, and romances that leave a legacy far beyond "happily ever after," Thayli turns each story into part of something greater: a universe where the past is never truly dead, love can alter destinies, and a new story is always waiting to be told.

After losing her parents to a devastating tragedy, young Irish woman Maeve Hartley is torn from Dublin and sent to England, where she lives under the guardianship of her cousin. Rebellious, spirited, and proud of her Irish roots, she despises everything the English aristocracy represents—especially its suffocating rules, arranged marriages, and arrogant men.
The last man she should meet is the one who seems to embody everything she hates most.
Derek Somerville, the cold and unyielding Duke of Derby, lives only for duty. Respected by the Queen, he is destined for an arranged marriage and has an impeccable reputation to uphold. For him, emotions are weaknesses, scandals are unacceptable, and impulsive women are dangerous.
Then Maeve bursts into his life like a storm—red hair, defiant blue eyes, and sharp opinions.
Between heated arguments, provocations, and an attraction impossible to ignore, they find themselves caught in a dangerous game between pride and passion. While London society watches the Duke's every move, Maeve threatens to destroy all the certainties Derek has spent a lifetime building.
But loving a rebellious Irishwoman could cost him far more than his reputation—it could cost him his future.
