His Scandalous Duchess

Description for HIS SCANDALOUS DUCHESS by Sara Blayne:

SHE WOULD BE HIS MISTRESS...

Determined to set matters right, he proposes marriage to the unconventional, delightful Althea, never anticipating London's most eligible Duke would be turned down flat! Aware his own heart is becoming dangerously involved in the matter, especially as sinister doings are afoot, he vows to convince noble Althea that her "scandalous" past is no reason to deny them both a future of bliss in each other's arms...
