Dukes always get what they want – Or is this lady the one exception?
Antonia Dane’s inheritance is a decaying house, a disgraced family name and a ramshackle estate. Somehow, she vows, she is going to make a new life for herself, redeem the Danes, become independent. She hadn’t calculated on the Duke next door or how temptingly impossible he was.
Marcus Renshaw, Duke of Allington, wants Antonia’s lands – and he wants Antonia. Dukes don’t have to ask twice, whatever it is they want, but it seems Miss Dane hasn’t heard about that rule.
Of course, having his gamekeepers arrest his new neighbour doesn’t help matters, nor does the highly inconvenient proximity of his last mistress. Somehow arrogance and entitlement, pride and independence are going to have to find a compromise…
