Publisher Description
After the loss of her husband—and her left foot—Ophelia Shaw threw herself into running his distinguished cousin’s country estate, to great success. But managing the Duke of Montrose himself was never a task she’d anticipated…until he returns from London without a bride, determined never to search for another. Well aware of the gruff duke’s appeal, Ophelia is equally determined to change his mind and school him in the art of courtship—only to be swept off her one remaining foot!
Harry has returned home to the Widow Shaw in a very bad mood indeed, though not because he was jilted. In truth, the one woman he wants is not the lady who received his proposal. Now, Ophelia is resolute he should try again, insisting love doesn’t always happen at first sight. If she only knew… To placate her, Harry agrees, keen to have his “lessons” over and done with. They’ll either prove Ophelia wrong—or deliver his perfect bride right into his waiting arms.
A steamy Distinguished Rogues novella.
Customer Reviews
Old time romance with a HEA
This is a great story about Ophelia, a widow who lost her foot and husband in an accident, and Harry, the Duke of Montrose. Harry is the cousin of Ophelia’s deceased husband, and unbeknownst to her, he is and always has been in love with her. Ophelia has been falling in love with Harry since the death of her husband but keeps this hidden since she doesn’t believe him to have feelings for her. I enjoyed their interactions and the fact that this story isn’t unnecessarily angsty. The reader gets taken through their growing attraction and delves a little into their pasts. Definitely an enjoyable read.
