Escape to 1830s England when the worlds of a soldier turned duke and Cinderella are about to collide! A duke In sudden need of a duchess! When Lieutenant Hartley returns home, it’s to become—reluctantly, he might add—the new Duke of Fenniston. If he’s to thrive in the ton , he must call on the help of widow Claire Hambledon, sister of the previous duchess, to guide him into society and help him find a wife! Penniless and with a young son, Claire is well aware that she’s totally unsuitable for a duke. But she’s also completely unable to ignore the ripples of desire every time she’s near dashing Hart… Or the temptation to start a forbidden affair!

Soon she was keeping notebooks for jotting down story ideas. When not writing or traveling, she enjoys watching movies, reading and puttering about in the garden trying to kill off more weeds than flowers.
