Philomena Harvey-Morton was content with her tidy life, far removed from the glittering world of England's wealthy elite. Being considered a plain country spinster had its perks, like avoiding objectionable social events. But when her father drags her to an estate party attended by members of the ton, Mena is forced to question what she really wants-and increasingly that would be to kiss a wickedly handsome duke.
He wasn't hunting a bride...
Garrett Sumner, the notorious Duke of Bedford, was used to living fast and free, and entirely determined not to settle down. Of course, his esteemed sister would say he drank too much liquor and was utterly without direction. That is, until his close friend suddenly fell in love, leaving Garrett stuck hosting a weekend party under the guise of finding a bride-something he has absolutely no intention of doing so.
Passion brings them together...
Unexpectedly, attraction flares, though they try to deny the smoldering longing threatening to ignite between them. As Mena and Garrett open up to each other, they must face their fears in order to gain the ultimate prize-love.
