Publisher Description

When girl meets Duke, their marriage breaks all the rules…

Since his return from war, the Duke of Ashbury’s to-do list has been short and anything but sweet: brooding, glowering, menacing London ne’er-do-wells by night. Now there’s a new item on the list. He needs an heir—which means he needs a wife. When Emma Gladstone, a vicar’s daughter turned seamstress, appears in his library wearing a wedding gown, he decides on the spot that she’ll do.

His terms are simple:

- They will be husband and wife by night only.

- No lights, no kissing. 

- No questions about his battle scars.

- Last, and most importantly… Once she’s pregnant with his heir, they need never share a bed again.

But Emma is no pushover. She has a few rules of her own:

- They will have dinner together every evening.

- With conversation.

- And unlimited teasing.

- Last, and most importantly… Once she’s seen the man beneath the scars, he can’t stop her from falling in love…

Very good!

THis was such a fun and touching romance. You are guaranteed to laugh and even cry through out the book!

Funny, sweet, & sexy

The characters are so likable but still vulnerable and real. The Duke's dry and sarcastic humor is so well balanced while Emma is a strong but kind making them a likable pair with dynamic interactions right from the start. Well written and very enjoyable read.

Charming, funny and touching.

Five full stars, people. I do not do that very often. This is Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast rolled into one entertaining read.

Ash is a scarred, insecure man with a heart of gold, but he's surrounded his heart with hardness to protect himself.

Emma is equally scarred except emotionally and she's strong for surviving it. I loved Emma's determination to overcome every adversity.

There are some truly lol moments of dialogue between the two main characters. There are touching, heartbreaking ones as well. Even the dedication made me chuckle. I truly love this author's sense of humor.

Sex scenes are tasteful and sexy all at once.

Best Tessa Dare book ever, in my opinion.
