A Bargain with a Distant Duke: A Historical Steamy Regency Romance Novel

No one will harm you while I still draw breath.

Helena Allen never expected the Duke of Wraxall to appear at her doorstep with a most improper proposal: a three-week betrothal to secure his inheritance. The terms are scandalous, the man insufferably arrogant, yet the promise of financial security and a cottage of her own proves irresistible.

Gideon Hawthorne, sixth Duke of Wraxall, has no interest in love or matrimony. But to claim his great-aunt’s estate, he must present a convincing fiancée to Regency London society. Helena, outspoken and utterly unsuitable, seems the perfect choice… until her fiery wit begins to crack the ice around his guarded heart.

From glittering London ballrooms to the storm-swept coast of Cornwall, their sham betrothal is tested by gossip, scandal, and a passion neither can ignore. What began as a cold arrangement soon burns too brightly, forcing them to decide whether pride or love will dictate their fate.

A Steamy Historical Regency Romance of Dukes, Betrothals, and Forbidden Desire.
