A Reimagined Regency Romance

By: Anne Shaw

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Courting the Duke is a reimagining of the classic play Cyrano de Bergerac, set in Regency England.

She wrote in her cousin’s name, but he fell for the woman behind the words.

Miss Serena Deburgiak has long dwelt in the background. Born with a cleft lip, repaired by surgery, she bears the scar still, both visible and unseen. While her cousin Roxanne shines as the incomparable of the Season, Serena’s own future rests upon Roxanne’s marriage. If Roxanne secures the Duke of Hoxton, Serena may at last find a place where she belongs.

Lord Christian, Duke of Hoxton, is bound by duty and scarred by war. He finds solace in healing injured birds on his estate, yet human connection proves far more elusive. Determined to keep his word, he intends to wed Lady Roxanne. But it is Serena witty, clever, and impossible to ignore, who begins to capture his heart.

As Serena’s bold plan to secure her cousin’s future unravels, she must face a heartbreaking choice: surrender her own happiness or risk everything for a love she never dreamed was hers to claim.
