He’s claimed his title
Could he inherit a bride, too?
Part of The Sommersby Brides: The Duchess of Skeffington retreats to the estate that was her refuge during her cruel marriage. She’s shocked to come face-to-face with the distant heir, now newly inherited duke, adventurous Simon Alexander. When Elizabeth is robbed, it’s up to them both to find the thief. But traveling together would attract too much gossip... Unless they pose as husband and wife!

Thank you to my insightful and patient editor
Linda Fildew and my team at Mills & Boon.
This book wouldn’t have been possible without the
love and support of my family. Thanks for the care and
feeding of an author under deadline! Love you, guys!
To Anabelle, Lori, Mia, Jen, Marnee, and my H crew.
Thanks for your friendship and for making me
snort with laughter at the most unexpected times,
usually looking at my phone
while I’m waiting line in a store.
And thank you to my readers. Your enthusiasm
about my books means so much.
