The Replacement Duchess by Patricia Haverton

“She does not want you, Your Grace. Can I take her place?”
A suspected murderer, Duke Colin did not expect the hellion that crashed into him in the garden. Nor the way she kissed him and fled into the night…
After realizing she accosted a criminal, Diana wants to forget it all and go back to raising her sister in her deadbeat father’s stead.
Only to find the man at her door, apparently betrothed to her sister.
So she does what she must to protect her: she takes her place. Yet she knows better than to trust her new husband. Even if their kiss haunts her every moment…

*If you like powerful Dukes, loving Duchesses and a marvelous depiction of the majestic Regency and Victorian era, then The Replacement Duchess is the novel for you.
