Having finally been granted a divorce from his horribly unsuitable second wife, Hugo, the duke of Lindow, is now in the market for a new duchess. Hugo hopes to find someone with strong maternal instincts, like the widowed Ophelia Phee Astley, who can help Hugo with his eight children. However, much to Hugo's surprise, Phee rebuffs his initial attempt to put a ring on her finger. As a duke, Hugo is used to getting what he wants, which means when it comes to sealing the matrimonial deal with Phee, he is going to have to figure out exactly what he needs to do to get the lady to say yes. Best-selling RITA award-winner James proves once again why she is the romance genre's primary purveyor of deftly written, delectably witty, and delightfully sexy love stories as she gifts readers with a prequel to her wildly popular The Wildes of Lindow Castle series. If this isn't enough to entice readers, James' novella, Storming the Castle, is included as an enchanting literary bonus.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2020, American Library Association.)
