The Arrogant Duke

For years, Juliet’s father had used his wealth, power and influence to rule her life.

But now, she was free to make her own decisions. She had assumed a new name and identity, and had run away to a job on this beautiful West Indian island. Posing as Rosemary Summers, she arrived at the Quinta de Castro to act as companion to an orphaned teenager in a wheelchair.

Sixteen-year-old Teresa proved sullen and fiercely hostile, determined to reject every overture of friendship. Her hard-won taste of freedom was thrilling, even if her teenage charge proved utterly impossible to please!

The arrogant master of the plantation had not even been told she was hired. Facing down a titled tyrant was not in the job description, but backing away from him was entirely out of the question!

But had she jumped from the frying pan into the fire? Bad as her father had been, her employer, the Duque Felipe Ricardo de Castro, turned out to be even more domineering. And what was worse—Juliet fell in love with him!
