The Duke Who Lied

The 1797 Club, Book 8

By: Jess Michaels

Narrated by: Danielle O'Farrell

The eighth audiobook in the bestselling 1797 Club series by USA Today best seller Jess Michaels.

Hugh Margolis, duke of Brighthollow, has been keeping a secret that eats him up inside. His beloved sister was seduced and nearly ruined by a wicked man. The trauma sent her into exile, and to protect her reputation, he never did anything about it. But now, the "gentleman" is back in Society and recently became engaged to another lady.

Miss Amelia Quinton cannot believe her luck. After a whirlwind courtship, she has just become engaged, and now, she’s looking forward to a true love match. Only all her plans come to a screeching halt when her father announces she is now to marry the duke of Brighthollow because he owns her father’s debts.

Amelia is horrified, for Hugh is nothing like the sweet and gentle boy she wanted to marry. Only once their vows are said, passions flare, and she begins to know the man better. Little by little, both their walls come down and feelings grow. Until she finds out he lied.

Will Hugh ever tell her the truth, and will it even matter by the time it’s all said and done?

Excellent

as all the former books this was a very good story. Love your writing, and your stories.

spoiled heiress

did not enjoy struggled to finish. a waste of my credit heiress was spoiled and Hugh was too stupid to tell the truth.

Author not for me

2 1/2 stars I don’t think the author is for me as there seems to be a lack of depth to characters and often sex scenes used as filler for substance to story.
