The Worst Duke in London

Lady Evangeline Raine is sick of sly suitors with empty pockets and emptier promises and has sworn off the marriage mart for good. Unfortunately, the loathsome Lord Huntington has his eye on her younger sister Viola, who isn’t allowed to attend the London season unless Evangeline does as well. Huntington enlists Gage, the down-on-his-luck Duke of Vale, to seduce Evangeline in return for forgiveness of his brother’s debts. As Gage comes to know Evangeline, however, he truly falls for the splendidly smart and sexy heiress. When she finds out that their relationship started with a lie, can he convince her that their connection is real? In this third installment of “Taming of the Dukes” (after Any Duke in a Storm), a historical romance series that channels well-known romantic movies, Howard’s Hellfire Kitties are back, scandalizing ballrooms and stealing dukes’ hearts. Narrator Mary Jane Wells returns as well, with an expressive and engaging performance. She perfectly portrays the witty leading lady, her sexy Scottish beau, and their steamy seduction.
