The Duke’s Bluestocking: A Historical Regency Romance Book (The Untamed Nobles 4)
I will not shackle myself to a man who values duty over desire.
Lady Scarlett Bradford treasures her independence more than any ballroom or title could offer. Brilliant, sharp-tongued, and quietly devoted to her poetry, she has no wish to wed, least of all the reserved heir to a dukedom. But when her father demands she honor their arrangement to Lord Simon Hayes, she braces herself for a cold, loveless union.
Simon Hayes has loved Scarlett in silence since they were children, admiring the fire in her mind and the courage in her spirit. To her, he is nothing but a stranger bound by obligation. To him, she is the one woman who could turn duty into devotion.
As scandal whispers through drawing rooms and danger creeps toward the Hayes family estate, their fragile bond is tested. Scarlett must choose between guarding her heart or risking it for the one man who sees her as she truly is.
In a world ruled by propriety, can a marriage of convenience become the love story they both believed impossible?
