The marriage game is afoot in this clever blend of My Fair Lady meets Pride and Prejudice with a twist!

Edward Stanhope, the icy Duke of Thornfield, likes his life in a certain order. Give him a strong drink, a good book, and his dog for company, and he’s content. But when he goes to his library and finds a woman sitting in his chair, petting his dog, what starts as a request for her to leave quickly turns to a fiery battle of wits, leading to a steamy kiss that could ruin them both if they were caught.

So of course, damn it all, that’s when Edward’s aunt walks in, and thereafter announces Miss Georgiana Bly is the future Duchess of Thornfield.

Georgiana was content to be a spinster, spending her days reading and working to keep her family out of debt. But now her days are spent locked away with a growly duke, learning how to be the perfect duchess, and her nights spent fighting the undeniable attraction to a man who was never meant for her.

As their wedding day approaches, the attraction between them burns hot and fierce, but is it enough to melt the duke’s chilly facade?
 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



Edward Stanhope, Duke of Thornfield is known for his icy control and arrogance,  nobody knows just how hard that control is for him.  
Miss Georgiana Bly comes from a loving but slightly strange family. She has no thoughts of marriage,  and likes to hide away from crowds.  
Our characters seem to come from two very different worlds,  but now they must find a way to find some happiness together.  She must learn a lot to be worthy of her new life, but so must he. 
A very emotional story with unusual characters that will fascinate you from the first to the last page.  
I loved it.
