Description

What's a duke to do, when the girl who's perfectly wrong becomes the woman he can't live without?

Griffin York, the Duke of Halford, has no desire to wed this season—or any season—but his diabolical mother abducts him to "Spinster Cove" and insists he select a bride from the ladies in residence. Griff decides to teach her a lesson that will end the marriage debate forever. He chooses the serving girl.

Overworked and struggling, Pauline Simms doesn't dream about dukes. All she wants is to hang up her barmaid apron and open a bookshop. That dream becomes a possibility when an arrogant, sinfully attractive duke offers her a small fortune for a week's employment. Her duties are simple: submit to his mother's "duchess training"… and fail miserably.

But in London, Pauline isn't a miserable failure. She's a brave, quick-witted, beguiling failure—a woman who ignites Griff's desire and soothes the darkness in his soul. Keeping Pauline by his side won't be easy. Even if Society could accept a serving girl duchess—can a roguish duke convince a serving girl to trust him with her heart?

    The most perfect, beautiful story. I loved every bit of it from start to finish. Would go so far as to say my favorite historical romance I’ve ever read! So well written.

    What a great combination of love, sensuality and humor! Most historical romances seem like you are reading the same old thing…in contrast, this one is clever and entertaining! I wish there were more like this one….I tried a few others by this same author and they were okay but this one is really WONDERFUL!

    This was my first ever Tessa Dare book and it will not be my last. I will definitely read the other books in this series. The plot twist of Duke meets his future Duchess was great. The witty dialogue between the characters was a joy to read. I've found a new favorite author!
