The Bluestocking Duchess

Her good friend…

Is suddenly a duke’s heir!

In this Heirs in Waiting story, Miss Jocelyn Sudderfeld is working at Edge Hall, indulging her love of translating ancient texts with her librarian father—and evading the need to marry! She’s always enjoyed a teasing friendship with estate manager Mr Alex Cheverton…until he unexpectedly becomes the Duke’s heir. His first duty is to marry a suitable debutante, not consort with an earnest bluestocking like her…so where does that leave their friendship?

About the author

Long before embarking on romantic adventures of her own, Julia Justiss read about them, transporting herself to such favourite venues as ancient Egypt, World War II submarine patrols, the Old South and, of course, Regency England. Soon she was keeping notebooks for jotting down story ideas. When not writing or traveling, she enjoys watching movies, reading and puttering about in the garden trying to kill off more weeds than flowers.
