About this ebook

Fall in love with New York Times bestselling author Grace Burrowes's "favorite kind of historical" where a case of mistaken identity leads to an unexpected love between a duke and debutante.


Miranda Hodgkins has only ever wanted one thing: to marry Robert Carlisle. And she simply can't wait a moment longer. During the Carlisle family masquerade ball, Miranda boldly sneaks into his bedchamber with seduction on her mind. Soon she's swept into rock-hard arms for the most breathtaking kiss of her life. But when the masks come off, she's horrified to find herself face-to-face with Sebastian, the Duke of Trent-Robert's formidable older brother.

Shocked to find Miranda in his bed, Sebastian quickly offers her a deal to avoid scandal: He'll help her win his brother's heart if she'll find him the perfect wife. But what begins as a simple negotiation soon spirals out of control. For the longer this reformed rake tries to make a match for Miranda, the more he wants to keep her all to himself.

Ratings and reviews

I am voluntarily submitting my review after receiving a NetGalley ARC edition of this eBook. If the Duke Demands is a well written, fast paced book with lots of witty banter, intelligent quips, mad-cap hijinks and burning sexual tension. As the boom progresses, an unconventional romance blooms between the main characters. As this love developed, I found myself morning and more enthralled with their story and ended up reading the last 3\4 of the novel in one sitting because i was simply unable to put it down. I have read a few of Anna Harrington's works, and this one is definitely my favorite one so far!

I love Anna Harrington's historical romances, but If the Duke Demands is my favorite so far that she's written. The Carlisle brothers are the quintessential alpha heroes especially Sebastian. Sebastian Carlisle and Miranda Hodgkins make a pact to help each other out during the season in London. Sebastian will help Miranda get his brother Robert's attention and Miranda will help Sebastian find the perfect wife for a Duke, but things soon get a little confusing when their feelings change for one another. I was given an ARC from the author/publisher. All conclusions are mine and mine alone.

An act of boldness begins a dance of scandal in Anna Harrington’s, If The Duke Demands. The one time Miranda acts on her attraction to her life long crush, she ends up in the arms of his brother. Talk about embarrassing. One bold decision ends up being just the thing Sebastian and Miranda need. An awkward situation leads to a simple pact. He needs a wife. She wants his brother. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. Especially when the heart becomes involved. If the Duke Demands turn out to be a tempting bundle of humorous sass with some spicy seduction.
