Publisher Description
How can she dare to imagine he loves her . . . when all London calls her The Ugly Duchess?
Theodora Saxby is the last woman anyone expects the gorgeous James Ryburn, heir to the Duchy of Ashbrook, to marry. But after a romantic proposal before the prince himself, even practical Theo finds herself convinced of her soon-to-be duke's passion.
Still, the tabloids give the marriage six months.
Theo would have given it a lifetime . . . until she discovers that James desired not her heart, and certainly not her countenance, but her dowry.
Society was shocked by their wedding . . . and is scandalized by their separation.
Now James faces the battle of his life, convincing Theo that he loves the duckling who blossomed into the swan.
And Theo will quickly find that, for a man with the soul of a pirate, All's Fair in Love—and War.
Customer Reviews
Good read!
Good story! But I had a few irks with it where I understand that they had their conflict but I didn’t like that it was SO LONG of one. Then after all that time it was a very short period where she had her “barrier up” to when she caved. I also thought it was weird to go from telling the story from the persons point of view to then narrating from the outside looking in. BUT all in all it was good.
