When only a despicable duke will do...
Miss Heather Everly desperately needs to get married, but not just any suitor will do. Her family is harboring a dark secret and on the brink of ruin. Only the Duke of Alberhill, a man twice her age and known for his horrid disposition, can save her. He answers her letter and agrees to meet her, but the man who arrives is not the dastardly duke, but his young and handsome steward, Mr. Calder. Heather must convince Mr. Calder she can be the perfect duchess, but the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to fight what her heart truly desires.
