Beguiling the Duke, Breaking the Marriage Rules

In this charming Victorian romance, a false identity could lead to true love for an American orphan engaged to an English gentleman.

Penniless American Rosie Smith will do anything for her wealthy guardian’s daughter. She’d even save her friend from a marriage of convenience with a stuffy Englishman by trading places with her! Posing as the heiress, Rosie’s plan to put off the duke backfires spectacularly: beneath his stiff formality is a hardworking and amusing man. Too late Rosie is falling for Alexander—only he has no idea who she really is . . .
