About this ebook
A shocking family secret sends a spinster out of her home—and into the arms of an unlikely Duke—in this sizzling Regency romance.
Raised as the youngest daughter of the Duke of Kendal, Elizabeth learns a devastating truth on his deathbed: he wasn't her father at all. And because the Duke had no sons, his title and fortune must go to his only male heir: a distant cousin who left England for America long ago. Anticipating the man's imminent occupation of her home, Elizabeth anxiously searches for her mother's diary, and the secret of her paternity . . .
William Atherton has no desire to leave his Virginia farm, or his fiancée. Arriving in London with his seven siblings, he intends to sell Kendal House and return home. But as Elizabeth shows William an England he never knew, and introduces his siblings to London society, it becomes clear that these two are meant for each other. Soon, Elizabeth is determined to seduce the man who can save her family name—and her heart.
