Punished by the Duke

Perfect for fans of dark historical romance, arranged marriage stories, and slow-burn obsession with a fiercely protective hero.

In a world ruled by titles and secrets, Harrison Graham, the Duke of Fallbridge, is used to getting what he wants. But when the Crown demands he produce an heir or lose everything, he's forced to make a choice—marry a proper debutante... or take a nameless orphan no one would miss.

He chooses Maggie.

She's quiet, malnourished, and barely old enough to be called a woman. But there's something in her eyes that defies him. Something sharp and unbroken. She isn't the docile, obedient wife he expected—and discipline becomes the only language they both understand.

As desire ignites and power shifts, Harrison finds himself drawn to the one woman he was never meant to want. But in a world built on control, can love survive where punishment reigns?

When betrayal threatens what little trust they've built, Maggie must decide if she can truly belong in the arms of the man who both saved and claimed her.

Dark. Devastating. Addictive. This is a gripping historical romance about dominance, vulnerability, and the thin line between punishment and protection.

Maggie spent her life in Miss Doreen's Home for Girls, dreaming of a future beyond its walls. But when the ruthless and powerful Duke of Fallbridge arrives, she learns her fate is no longer her own. He needs a wife—one who will obey him without question—and she has just been chosen.

But as passion ignites between them and punishment turns to pleasure, Maggie soon realizes that the Duke's dominance is not just about control—it's about claiming her completely. And when secrets unravel and dangerous enemies emerge, she must decide if she will surrender to the man who owns her… or risk losing everything.

Trigger Warnings: This book contains historically accurate discipline, firm dominance, and themes of control and submission.
