He has just inherited his father's estate upon returning from a long stint in the Army. Will he inherit smoothly
Now he faces a more terrifying prospect - he must marry right away or lose his inheritance.
Shawn William, Duke of Worthington, cousin to the Prince Regent and ruler of Fairbanks, has seen many things during his time in the Army. Death and dismemberment, pain and suffering, but nothing have prepared him for his return to life as a civilian. Haunted by the ghosts of his past and battling the inner demons that keep him from the restful sleep, he must still find time to choose a Lady as his bride, as commanded by the Prince Regent.
Although there are dozens of eligible maidens in beautiful Fairbanks, he only has eyes for one - the ravishing Lady Elizabeth Dowling. Another man wants to pay court to her, but he's willing to do whatever it takes, even a fight to the death if it means that she will be his bride...
Will Duke Shawn finally meet his match in the form of the waspish older gentleman who has already asked for Lady Elizabeth's hand and been denied?
Can Lady Elizabeth discover the true reason for her reluctance toward the handsome Duke of Fairfield before he chooses another bride - perhaps even her own sister?
Genre: Historical Romance
