About this series

The duke's stolen kiss has him wanting to up the ante in a game of forbidden love.

 

When her father died, Dinah Westfall was grateful to the owners of Sutcliffe's, a scandal-rich gaming hell and pleasure palace, for allowing her to continue to work as their bookkeeper. Her sister and grandmother depend on her income, so she ignores the activities going on around her office. Until a repulsive guest assaults her.

 

Her rescue by co-owner Jack Hill, Duke of Abingdon, comes just in time, but now Jack insists on escorting her home every night, and his hints at wanting more than a kiss are beginning to tantalize her. Worse, they're distracting her from investigating what appears to be missing money from the club's revenue.

 

If the money has actually gone missing, and if her father is at fault, she could lose her job and her family's livelihood. She will be no man's mistress, not even a duke's, and will do what it takes to defy his propositions while solving the discrepancies in the books.

    Every Duke Has His Thorn: Wayward Dukes, #10

    Nicholas Barton, Duke of Preston, leaves England after the death of his mother, an overbearing woman who attempted to control the activities of her only child. He returns to England three years later, and after a disastrous month spent in London avoiding matchmaking mamas, the duke departs for his ancestral home, Barton Hall, in Lancashire. He finds the house rundown and the estate in shambles.   Miss Marina Davies, daughter of renowned architect Sir Robert Davies, has no time for the aristocracy. Her deceased mother was the daughter of an earl, cast off when she married a mere mister. Content to assist her father in refurbishing great houses, Marina isn't looking for romance, especially with a proud duke who left his responsibilities behind to travel the world.   Thrown together over several weeks while solving clues to a mythical treasure, Marina comes to view the duke as a kindred spirit rather than an enemy, and Nicholas begins to realize that the outspoken young woman he'd seen as a thorn in his side is now the woman he wants as his wife.
