A woman's heart dares to defy the rules of Victorian society in USA
Today bestselling author Caroline Fyffe's novel of romance, royalty,
and a little revenge.
In Kent, England, the arrival of Beranger Northcott, Duke of
Brightshire, causes a stir. Because with the duke comes his new American
bride, who isn't quite what anyone expects. By accepting the hand of
her beloved, Emma Brinkman went from hardworking Colorado rancher to
duchess. Now she's expected to comport herself as nobility. Overnight.
For Emma--stifled, homesick, and unable to shake the feeling she's being
watched--the metamorphosis is a challenge. And if Emma's suspicions are
correct, perhaps even a dangerous one.
Fortunately, Emma has found a trusted friend in the orphaned Charlotte,
Brightshire's scullery maid. Charlotte longs to experience--if only for
a moment--the luxuries and gentry romance that come with a titled life.
When one of the duke's handsome cousins takes notice of Charlotte, the
castle kitchen is set abuzz with speculation.
In navigating their two different stations, both servant and duchess
alike will discover all they have in common--from secret fantasies to
daring hearts to upending the rules of society. And that finding their
places in the world--and love--is a dream that can come true--no
matter the risks.
