  HOW TO CATCH A DUKE

  by Grace Burrowes

  Miss Abigail Abbott needs to disappear—permanently—and the only person she trusts to help is Lord Stephen Wentworth, heir to the Duke of Walden. Stephen is brilliant, charming, and absolutely ruthless. So ruthless that he proposes marriage to keep Abigail safe. But when she accepts his courtship of convenience, they discover intimate moments that they don’t want to end. But can Stephen convince Abigail that their arrangement is more than a sham and that his love is real?

  THE TRUTH ABOUT DUKES

  by Grace Burrowes

  Lady Constance Wentworth never has a daring thought (that she admits aloud) and never comes close to courting scandal…as far as anybody knows. Robert Rothmere is a scandal poised to explode. Unless he wants to end up locked away in a madhouse (again) by his enemies, he needs to marry a perfectly proper, deadly-dull duchess, immediately—but little does he know that the delightful lady he has in mind is hiding scandalous secrets of her own.

But he soon discovers she’s also witty and selfless—and if he’s not careful, he just might lose his heart.
