Since she was a young girl, Marina has dreamt of marrying her prince charming and living happily ever after… Instead, she is forced into an arranged marriage to the cold-hearted Duke of Brixham. Marina fears that all is lost until she sees a softer side to the duke…
Lady Marina Cornish’s family is in dire financial trouble. Her father, whom she loves dearly, has gambled away all their family’s money. Their family is ruined and Marina is left with no other choice but to agree to marry the horrid Lord Ellerby. Marina stumbles across her father and the Duke of Brixham in a heated argument. Wishing to save her father from the cold-hearted duke, she proposes they marry to settle the debt her father owes him.
Adam Blackburn—The Duke of Brixham—has developed the reputation of being a cold-hearted duke. He is a ruthless businessman who has seen many gentlemen sent off to debtors’ prisons. The last thing he expects when he calls on the Earl of Chelwood is to receive a wedding proposal.
An unlikely attraction develops between Adam and Marina, and the ice around Adam’s heart slowly melts. Now, Adam has a choice: either let go of all his father taught him or risk losing Marina forever!
* Indulge in a delightful and captivating love story that blends Regency romance with suspense and heartfelt emotions. The Beastly Duke’s Convenient Bride is the perfect novel for anyone who enjoys tales of passion and intrigue set in a bygone era.
