The last thing she wants, however, is to spend the rest of her days as an unmarried sister, dependent upon her family’s charity.

Now he’s a duke and must fulfill his obligations. The last woman he has any right to long for is his former best friend’s younger sister, Lettie.All grown-up Lettie is passionate, quick-witted, and desirable, and it isn't long before Anthony falls for her, the very last woman he should consider marrying. Will past betrayals keep them apart? Or is there a path to a new beginning with Anthony and the only woman he truly loves?Heart of a Duke BooksFor Love of the DukeMore Than a DukeThe Love of a RogueLoved by a DukeTo Love a LordThe Heart of a ScoundrelTo Wed His Christmas LadyTo Trust a RogueThe Lure of a RakeTo Woo a WidowTo Redeem a RakeOne Winter With a BaronTo Enchant a Wicked DukeBeguiled by a BaronTo Tempt a ScoundrelTo Hold a Lady's SecretTo Catch a Viscount (February 2022)Defying the Duke (July 2022)To Marry Her Marquess (August 2022)The Devil and the Debutante (September 2022)Devil by Daylight (November 2022)Ten Things I Love About the Duke (January 2023)
