***** READ NOW ON KINDLE UNLIMITED *****
Lady Charlotte Wyndham, given in an arranged marriage to a man she has never met – a handsome Duke – has resigned herself to making the best of it. What she never expected was to find herself hopelessly attracted to her husband, a man who is distant and formal at all times. So she sets herself to being the best Duchess she can be, caring for their tenants and household, despite her personal unhappiness.
William Hawthorne, Duke of Alverton, inherited the title at 19 – and inherited a nightmare of debts and secrets with it. Now 25, he has allowed past bad experiences to make him reject the very idea of love – everything in his life is about duty and emotionless organization. He has restored the fortunes of his estates, and selected the most suitable woman to marry – for totally unemotional reasons. What he did not expect when doing so was that she might have strong opinions of her own, rather than simply complying with his wishes. Nor did he expect to find himself developing feelings for her, despite his intent to do no such thing.
As they work together to deal with the challenges that arise on the estate, every moment of closeness seems to be undermined by secrets and arguments. Secrets which their most unpleasant neighbour appears to intend to use for his own ends, driving them apart when they most need each other’s support.
Finally, desperation drives Charlotte to make choices which risk everything – including her marriage, and her heart, when she can no longer bear to watch William suffering.
Will they find their way to each other, through all of the threats?
Will William allow himself to trust Charlotte, to love her?
Or will the machinations of others tear them apart completely?
A delightful Regency story with a Christmas happy ending!
