Publisher Description
“I loved it!”
—Mary Balogh
“[Nash] ignites the page with passion.”
—Julia Quinn
The Hangover meets Regency England in RITA Award-winning author Sophia Nash’s wickedly clever and wonderfully sensual Royal Entourage historical romance novels. In The Art of Duke Hunting, the second in her series, the dashing Duke of Norwich—on the morning after a most extravagant royal bachelor party that he simple cannot recall—awakens on board ship and well out to sea…and in the arms of a stranger, an enchanting and most proper lady. The Art of Duke Hunting is funny, sexy, and wonderfully romantic, as fans of Karen Hawkins, Elizabeth Boyle, and Victoria Alexander will most assuredly agree. And unlike the members of the Royal Entourage, you will happily recall every delicious moment of it!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Nash's highly entertaining second Royal Entourage Regency (after Between the Duke and the Deep Blue Sea), a cursed duke evades his date with death. Roman Montagu, the 17th duke of Norwich, expects to die young, as have the previous 16 dukes. Lady Esme March, countess of Derby, rescues him from being swept overboard in a storm and soothes him in a most intimate manner. Both Esme and Roman are stunned by their encounter, and he feels duty-bound to offer her marriage. While she initially refuses, circumstances beyond their control force the couple together again, and they must decide whether to embrace their mutual search for independence or open their hearts to the possibility of love. Esme is an immensely admirable heroine, her innate kindness and talent for creating magnificent art more than overcoming her "plain" looks. Nash creates intense romantic tension between multidimensional characters to keep the pages turning.
