The Duke’s Unexpected Wallflower (Unexpected Brides Book 4)

Description

Miss Beatrice Holloway has spent her entire life mastering one skill: invisibility.

Too plain, too curvaceous, too poor to matter in a society that values beauty above all else, she knows her place: on the sidelines, unnoticed and unchosen.

Until one evening . . . a duke crosses a crowded ballroom, and chooses her.

Lawrence Whitcombe does not believe in impulse. A man of control, logic, and ruthless observation, he has spent years avoiding the trivialities of society, including marriage.

But there is nothing trivial about Miss Holloway.

She is not the most beautiful woman in the room. She is not the most charming. And yet . . . she is the only one he cannot forget.

When he claims her for the most scandalous dance of the Season, whispers ignite, reputations tremble, and Beatrice is thrust into a spotlight she never asked for.

Because a man like him does not choose a woman like her . . . unless there is a reason.

And whatever that reason may be, it is far more dangerous than either of them expects.
