The Duke's Return
(2019)(The first book in the London Season Matchmaker series)
A novel by Lucy Adams
What do you do when the love of your life returns, but you have fallen for another?
Lady Eliza Wells was utterly heartbroken after the Duke of Avondale, the love of her life, turned away from her and chose to marry another.
Now he's back... and Lady Eliza is nothing less than horrified.
He is widowed, sorrowful and desperate to explain what happened all those years ago.
Determined not to give in and holding tightly onto her pain, Lady Eliza refuses to give him even a moment of her time and instead tries to develop an attachment with Lord Montrose.
Lord Montrose is both suave and amiable, but Eliza is struggling to make herself feel as much for him as she does for the duke of Avondale.
Then, when the duke discovers a terrible truth, Lady Eliza is forced to look deep into her heart, questioning everything she thinks she knows about both gentlemen.
Is Lord Montrose truly the man he seems? Or will her engagement to him all come crashing down once the truth is revealed...
Author's Note
London Season Matchmaker is a five-book series about four sisters and their cousin all being reluctant when it comes to love. But of course, in the end, they all do fall madly in love.
After reading some of this books reviews, I've edited the manuscript to reflect correct usage of Regency salutations. Thank you to all the reviewers who've helped me make this a better book! I've also renamed the book from The Return of Lord Avondale to The Duke's Return. Enjoy!
