Description
Alexander, the Duke of Caershire, wasn’t expecting to drag a half-drowned woman from the Thames, but there seems little to do but help the bedraggled woman home.
Teresa Metcalfe, courtesan to the rich and famous, knows a fool when she sees one, but her instincts to rob him melt away as she discovers just why he was walking the docks that night.
As the night continues and time forces honesty from their lips, will Alexander relinquish the reputation that he has worked so hard to maintain? Will being drenched with a duke give Teresa a man not just for a night, but for a lifetime?
Another fun story from Emily Murdoch. Teresa and Alexander are from different worlds, but their attraction sees beyond that. Their love for each other is stronger than opinions of others. I enjoyed their interactions, their strong feelings and opinions, and even their expectations of each other. With a kick in the pants, they come together for an HEA as it should be.
I received an ARC copy of this story as a gift, and this is my unsolicited review.
