Beskrivelse
With the sudden deaths of his father and older brother, Peter Anthony finds himself in a position he never imagined, the ninth duke of Charlesworth. Mourning the deaths in his family, and the responsibilities with the upkeep of Charlesworth, Peter has more than he can manage. And then a clause in his great-grandfather's will is brought to his attention. All newly appointed dukes in his family line, must marry within one year of inheriting the title, or all the family wealth would be donated to various charities. Lady Anne Spalding, daughter of an earl, was always welcomed in the highest of social circles, but she had no desire to mingle with society regularly. Spending the last three years working for the war office, Anne had new perspective that most women could not relate with. It was time for her to move on with her life, but what now? When Peter met Anne, visiting nearby her father's country estate, word of his family deaths had not yet been released to the public. Instant sparks flew between the two, but Peter had to get back to Charlesworth to fulfill his newly appointed responsibilities. He asks Anne to join him as his wife, still not knowing who he really is. Can Anne take that risk, marrying a kind, but mostly complete stranger? Can the two eventually find love after only meeting on a few short occasions? And will he tell her the secret that she is completely unaware of? If she chose to marry and return with him . . . she would be a duchess.
