The Duke's Bride

The Duke's Bride Summary

A fiercely loyal lady, along with her brooding duke come head-to-head in a battle of wills! An unforgettable Regency Romance from New York Times Bestselling Author Joanne Wadsworth.

He must steal a lady…then steal her love.

Desiring a man and never being noticed as more than his best friend’s little sister has Lady Ellie Trentbury finally consigning herself to the truth. She must move on, and preferably with a man who lives far away from her home in London where she need never be reminded of the duke who stole her heart. An elopement with an honorable American shipping merchant sounds perfect.

The Duke of Ashten has no choice but to bound into his best friend’s carriage when he discovers little Ellie is inside and intent on eloping with a man to Gretna Green who she barely knows. He can’t allow her to make such a terrible mistake, yet convincing her might mean giving into his desire for the golden-eyed enchantress who has followed him around since he was a lad.

Her pouty lips and bountiful charms can no longer be ignored, only convincing her of the truth of his intentions will mean jeopardizing both his sanity and a lifelong friendship as well.

Each book in this series is standalone, and can be enjoyed out of sequence.

I am happy to find a new author to enjoy! Ashten has been her brother Harry’s best friend forever, and Lady Ellie has been in love with him since she was a little girl. While Harry is still at war, Ashten has secluded himself in his home after a war injury. His would-be fiancée was lost at sea while eloping- with another man. Ellie wants to bring him out of his home, back into society, and into her arms, but Ashten can only see her as his friend’s little sister.55

Great story but too short4 star

Liked the characters. Wanted more. The story was too short and left me feeling frustrated as I think it could have been developed a bit more with more closure in the end.45
