Synopsis

James Cavendish is a simple man with simple pleasures, which is unfortunate, because tomorrow he arrives in London and becomes the Duke of Durham. He spends his last night of freedom with a beautiful stranger, expecting never to see her again.

Meredith Green said yes to that man for the same reason — and then finds herself under the same roof as him, because she is companion to the dowager Duchess of Durham and has been given the job of teaching the new duke how to be one.

Fourth in Maya Rodale's Keeping Up with the Cavendishes, in which four American siblings inherit a dukedom and scandalise London. A Regency romance about class, duty and the very poor odds of not surrendering to temptation twice.
