‘He had not allowed himself to want anything in four years.
Then she walked through his door.’
The Duke of Ravenswood returned from the war alive. That was as far as he had managed in four years, alive, and no further. He pacing his frozen halls at midnight. He drank alone in his library. He could not bring himself to open the door to the orphaned boy his closest friend died asking him to raise.
Lorraine Weston was hired for three months and triple wages.
She was twenty-six years old, ruined for a scandal that was never hers. She had given up her name to save her sister and had received, in exchange, a quiet life of borrowed rooms in other people's houses.
She had not come to Yorkshire to fall in love.
She had come to teach a silent boy his laughter back.
But the duke watches her across his library at midnight, and his hands shake when she is near, and one evening when the candles have burned low he says her name in a voice she has never heard from him, and Lorraine Weston, who has been very practiced at not being wanted, finds that she does not know how to be wanted by him.
Some people are saved.
Some people do the saving.
And some, very rarely, are given the chance to do both.
If you love steamy Regency romance filled with scandal, longing, sharp banter, and irresistible chemistry, this sweeping love story is for you. Featuring a grumpy duke, a curvy spinster heroine, forced proximity, and slow-burning passion that turns utterly consuming.
No cheating. No cliffhangers. Just a beautifully satisfying happily ever after.
