The Forgotten Duke: Diamonds In The Rough, #5

By Sophie Barnes

He never imagined he'd be the man he was born to be, or that one woman's faith in him would change his life forever…

 

When Carlton Guthrie, the Scoundrel of St. Giles, encounters a runaway bride, he offers to help her. Not out of kindness, but because she's the Earl of Hedgewick's daughter. Using Regina to exact his revenge on her father seems like the perfect plan. Until Carlton starts to fall for the innocent beauty.

 

Seeking refuge with a notorious crime lord was never part of Regina's plan. But in her blind attempt to escape the fate her parents have planned for her, options are limited. What she doesn't expect, is to pull aside Carlton's facade and find a tormented man who makes her feel safe and cherished – a man she could easily love, if he'll let her.
