A captivating new Regency romance series from esteemed author Jane Ashford!

Fans of Bridgerton will fall in love with this sparkling Regency romance from bestselling author Jane Ashford featuring:

  • A duke accustomed to getting his own way
  • A lady determined to teach him a thing or two about love
  • Delicious opposites-attract romance
  • Glittering detail and banter

First in a new series!

James Cantrell, the new Duke of Tereford, has inherited a dukedom in disarray and is overwhelmed by his unaccustomed responsibilities. Then he gets an idea. Cecelia Vainsmede served as liaison between James and her father, and she knows a great deal about business matters, his own in particular. She's also quite pretty. Ever the pragmatist, he suggests a marriage of convenience.

Cecelia has always been good at working with James, but she doesn't understand how he can be so obtuse. He clearly doesn't realise that he's the duke she's always wished for, or that his offer is an insult. But when a German prince arrives in London and immediately sets out to woo Cecelia, James will have to come to terms with what he really feels for her. Is running away worth the cost of losing her, or will the duke dare to win her once and for all?
