The Duchess of Defiance: The Only Man Who Could Ruin Her… or Save Her (A Passionate London Season)

Miss Eleanor Dashcombe has a problem. Several, in fact. Her inheritance is under threat, her reputation is being quietly dismantled, and someone powerful appears determined to ruin her life. Fortunately, Eleanor possesses both intelligence and stubbornness in equal measure — and she has no intention of surrendering either. What she does not expect… is a duke. Julian Ashcroft, Duke of Harrowmere, moves easily through the glittering world that has begun to turn against her. He is charming, dangerously perceptive, and entirely too tempting for a man she ought not trust. Yet when he offers his assistance, Eleanor finds herself accepting — and soon discovering that proximity to a duke can be far more perilous than any scandal. Because Julian does not merely admire her courage. He desires her. And once a duke decides he wants something… he rarely retreats. As intrigue deepens and society watches closely, Eleanor and Julian must decide whether risking their hearts — and their futures — is worth the undeniable fire between them. Tropes: Duke falls first • Forbidden attraction • Strong heroine • High society scandal • Partners against the world
