Ne’er Duke Well : The most swoony, witty, feminist Regency romance of 2024, perfect for Tessa Dare fans

STRATAGEM FOR THE RESTORATION OF RESPECTABILITY TO THE DUKE OF STANHOPE:

Step 1: Find perfect wife Step 2: Save reputation from ruin Step 3: Do not, at any cost, fall in love with Selina Ravenscroft

But her matchmaking goes awry when the scorching chemistry between them proves impossible to resist. For the disreputable duke and his unpredictable matchmaker, falling in love might just be the ultimate scandal...
