A Duke for Hire by Violet Hamers

“Pretend all you want with everyone else… but you can’t lie when you’re gasping my name…”

Desperate for a marriage proposal, Seraphina must resort to renting a “Duke” to pursue her. Only, instead of the actor she hired, she dances with the real Duke of Merrivale… the only man she should avoid at all costs!
Duke Hugo needs a bride. But with the reputation of a murderer, every woman around him runs for the hills… except for one. And the moment he tastes Seraphina’s lips, he knows there is no going back…
Hugo vows to make her his wife. Yet, Seraphina resists, despite the burning desire in her eyes. So now he can’t stop until the world knows who she belongs to…
