The Duke’s Daring Bride

Surprise! Dukes, Book 4

Miss Olivia Wilson is desperate, and desperate women do daring things. She's willing to do just about anything to save her family's newspaper. When her biggest investor pulls his funding, she confronts him, willing to become his mistress if that's what it will take. He might not speak, but she can't deny his dark and dangerous appeal, and there would be worse hardships than becoming a duke's plaything.

Alistair Kincaid, the Duke of Effinghell, would rather chew nails than allow society an opportunity to mock him for his silence. He might need a wife, but he isn't going find one at a ball or musicale or other bit of nonsense. Then he realizes the daring beauty currently berating him in his study is exactly what he needs; her desperation will allow him the upper hand in his bargain, and her curves make his inexperienced palms itch to stroke her.

But this marriage of convenience is about to become complicated, as Olivia's newspaper unravels past mysteries and Alistair's ridiculous family gets involved. To save his inconvenient wife—again—he'll have to confront his deepest fears and lure a villain into the open. Olivia's daring might just mean disaster for them all!

Contains mature themes.
