*Previously published in the multi-author anthology Dukes and Diamonds.*
In this steamy Regency romance by USA Today Bestselling author Charlie Lane, a duke defies convention to win the hand of the woman he’s loved all his life.


He wants her in nothing but his diamonds.

Archer Halston, Duke of Crestmore doesn’t care what the world thinks. He’s loved the talented and loyal Miss Posey Frampton for years, and he’s finally ready to propose. Society’s censure, his mother’s pessimism, Posey's own position in society—nothing will stop him. Except Posey herself, who disappears as soon as he shows her the Halston bridal parure.

She knows she can never have him.

Posey has been in love with the roguishly handsome and cheerfully charming Duke of Crestmore since childhood. But she can never be with him. He’s a duke, and she’s a jeweler’s daughter. More damning than that, her sister is an art forger. She'll ignore her heart's call for Archer to save him from her own tainted association.

Diamonds are formed under Pressure. So is their love.

When Archer shows Posey his bridal parure, she panics: Those jewels are nothing but paste. The man she loves is in possession of a fake crafted by her sister’s hands, and she'll do anything to get the real jewels back. Including embarking on a journey to find the real jewels. Alone.

Arher's Posey on the roads alone? Never. The chase is on, and he won’t let her escape this time. He’ll catch up with her. And catch her heart.

Dukes, Diamonds, and other Desires is a companion novella to the Art of Love series. You can expect 2 open door steamy scenes, a pining hero, a road trip romance, and a happily ever after!
