Publisher Description
She threatens to conquer his heart…
When Matthew Donovan, Duke of Brunswick, proposes to Sarah Townsbridge, she's shocked. After all, she's never met him before. One thing is clear though – he obviously needs help. So after turning him down, she decides to get to know him better, and finds out she's right. But fixing a broken man is not the same as adopting a puppy. Least of all when the man in question has no desire to be saved.
Matthew has his mind set on Sarah. Kind and energetic, she'll make an excellent mother. Best of all, her reclusiveness is sure to make her accept the sort of marriage he has in mind – one where they live apart. The only problem is, to convince her, they must spend time together. And the more they do, the more he risks falling prey to the one emotion he knows he must avoid at all cost: love.
Customer Reviews
A not so convenient courtship
I received an ARC of this book to read through NetGalley. All opinions are my own. A Duke for Miss Townsbridge is the 4th book in Sophie Barnes’s The Townsbridge Series. This novella could be read as a standalone. Sarah Townsbridge is in her sixth season and has not received a proposal of marriage, so when her mother throws a party and gentlemen are paying attention to her, she’s delighted until it all goes horribly wrong when Matthew Donovan, Duke of Brunswick, barges in, drops to one knee and proposes even though they’ve never met before. The Duke is looking for a marriage of convenience, and Sarah is not willing to settle for less than love, so Matthew will have his work cut out for him to convince her and perhaps change his mind about marriage. A feisty heroine and a damaged hero are definitely catnip to me. I just wish the story was a bit longer to allow more time to explore the characters.
