If I Only Had a Duke
Lady Dorothea Beaumont has endured three failed seasons and a humiliating jilting. Done with her family's matchmaking, she plans to slip away quietly to her aunt's estate in Ireland.
The plan falls apart when Garrett, the cold and calculating Duke of Osborne, chooses her for a waltz. One dance turns Thea into the most sought-after belle of the season, and he has done it only to serve his own purposes.
Garrett has no use for debutantes or marriage. He plays the scandalous rake as cover while he searches for the man who ruined his family years ago.
When the trail leads to Ireland, Thea turns up and demands that he keep his promise to escort her there. He agrees, and the two set out together on a road with danger on it and an attraction neither wants.
This is the second book in the Regency-set Disgraceful Dukes series. It is an enemies-to-lovers romance with a witty, steamy tone, and real emotional stakes sit under the banter.
