The Duke's Desperate Bargain
(2025)(The second book in the Rebellious Dukes series)
A novel by Abigail Adams
A marriage born of desperation. A scandal that could destroy them. A love neither of them expected.
The Duke of Waverly needs money. The daughter of a steel magnate needs a title. Their marriage of convenience should have been a clean transaction—until desire, secrets, and betrayal change everything.
David Waverly has spent his life doing what’s expected. With his family's estate on the brink of collapse, marrying Daphne Hobson is the only way to preserve his legacy.
Daphne resents everything about the aristocracy—and the man she's been forced to marry. Determined to keep her independence, she guards her heart behind wit, defiance, and a reckless decision that nearly costs her everything.
When danger strikes, it’s David who risks his life to save her. What begins as duty shifts into something neither of them anticipated: respect, passion, and a fragile trust.
But powerful enemies want them ruined—and scandal is already knocking at the door. With their futures on the line, David and Daphne must decide: will they remain bound by obligation, or fight for a partnership forged in loyalty, forgiveness, and a love worth defying everything for?
