The Duke’s Widow: A Historical Regency Romance Book (Marriage and Duty 1)
on Amazon
“You will never be his, Martha…”
Josiah Elkins, the reluctant new Duke of Pembroke, has lived in the shadow of his older brother’s cruelty and greed. Now, with the title thrust upon him, he returns to Pembroke Manor, where duty compels him to confront the one woman he swore to forget Lady Martha, his brother’s widow and the only woman he has ever loved.
Scarred by an abusive marriage and burdened by society’s expectations, Martha has vowed never to let another man control her life. Yet Josiah’s quiet strength and steadfast kindness stir something she thought she had lost forever hope.
But the ghosts of the past linger in every shadow, and the weight of the present threatens to tear them apart. With scandal looming and unspoken truths between them. Will they fight for a love worth risking everything, or will fear drive them to let it slip away?
If you enjoy historical romance with strong characters and a touch of redemption, The Duke’s Widow is for you. It’s a heartfelt story of love, hope, and second chances that will captivate you.
No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a strong happily ever after.
Also available free with Kindle Unlimited.
