The Duke's Unwanted Bride: A Regency Marriage of Convenience Romance

Lady Arabella Wren has one season to save her family's ancestral estate from ruin.

But she carries a secret that could destroy her future: she cannot bear children.

Desperate to find a way to save her family, Arabella travels to the remote Yorkshire estate of the Duke of Ravensmere—the only man powerful enough to help her. Instead, she arrives amid scandal. The duke's intended bride has vanished hours before the wedding, leaving behind a household filled with whispers, fear, and unanswered questions.

Then Arabella discovers the missing bride's wedding gown abandoned in an empty room.

On an impulse, she puts it on.

For one fleeting moment, she allows herself to imagine being someone's wife.

Then the door opens.

And the Duke of Ravensmere is standing there.

Cold. Commanding. Infamous.

Known throughout the ton as the Wolf of Yorkshire, the duke should have been furious to find another woman wearing his runaway bride's gown. Instead, he makes Arabella a shocking offer.

Marry him, and he will pay her family's debts, save her estate, and ensure she never knows poverty again.

With no other choice, Arabella accepts.

But there is one problem.

The duke needs an heir.

And his new wife can never give him one.

What begins as a marriage of convenience soon becomes dangerously real. Beneath the duke's icy exterior lies a passion Arabella never expected—and with every stolen glance and forbidden touch, keeping her secret becomes harder.

Because the longer she remains his wife, the more she begins to fear the truth.

What will happen when the Wolf of Yorkshire discovers that the woman he married to secure his future can never give him the heir he desires?

And what will Arabella do when the marriage she entered to save her family becomes the one thing she cannot bear to lose?
