A Duke of Her Own (Desperate Duchesses #6)

Leopold Dautry, the notorious Duke of Villiers, must wed quickly and noblyƒ??and his choices, alas, are few. The Duke of Montagues daughter, Eleanor, is exquisitely beautiful and fiercely intelligent. Villiers betroths himself to her without further ado.

After all, no other woman really qualifies. Lisette, the outspoken daughter of the Duke of Gilner, cares nothing for clothing or decorum. Shes engaged to another man, and doesnt give a fig for status or title. Half the ton believes Lisette madƒ??and Villiers is inclined to agree.

Torn between logic and passion, between intelligence and imagination, Villiers finds himself drawn to the very edge of impropriety. But it is not until hes in a duel to the death, fighting for the reputation of the woman he loves, that Villiers finally realizes that the greatest risk may not be in the dueling field . . .

But in the bedroom. And the heart.
