Gregory Mallen, the Duke of Paxton is a fortunate man. He has his health, his wealth and the power and influence that come with a dukedom. All he needs now is a wife. His mother wants him to marry a lady of her choosing, but Gregory wants more. He wants love. So when his mother pressures him yet again to marry her choice of bride, frustration sends him out the door and into the night…where he meets a beautiful woman in distress who tempts both his body and his heart.

Lady Justina Dunne enjoys the freedoms widowhood allows. She loved her husband and misses him every day, but she still has needs and satisfies them with brief, meaningless affairs. When she attempts to sever ties with her latest lover, he demands more than she’s willing to give and when she tries to leave him, he refuses to let her go. Thankfully, a handsome duke comes to her rescue, and when Justina decides it would be best to hide out with family in the countryside, her rescuer offers to see her safely there.

On the journey, their attraction grows and soon gives way to passion. Gregory can’t help but fall for the beautiful widow, but Justina has lost one love before. Will she dare to risk her heart again or will fear prevent their chance at a happy ending?

The Duke of My Desire is part of A Match Made in Autumn multi-author series.
