Description
The battle-scarred face of Russell Johns, Duke of Amesbury, sends ladies running. Resigned to a lonely bachelorhood in his decrepit castle, he’s pessimistic about an arranged marriage with the daughter of a marquess. They’re strangers, and he’s sure his disfigurement will repulse her when they finally meet. She rejects him, yet claims it’s not for his scars, but because she wishes to marry for love. Russell has one month before the wedding to change her mind and win her heart.
Lady Caroline Richardson was the indulged daughter of a marquess, until her twin brother, the heir, was killed. Then, she became her father’s pawn in an arranged marriage to a Duke she’s never met. True, the Duke isn’t the dour monster she expected but powerfully attractive, his scars a badge of valour. How to convince him they’re not the reason for her rejection, that she’s simply holding out against a loveless marriage?
With one month until the wedding, she must fight against her own resolve not to fall for him. But will she succeed?
