The Infamous Duke
(Staunton Sisters Book Two)
The infamous Duke of Wadebridge always gets what he wants. This time, he wants the one woman he cannot have.
When Wade meets Cassandra Staunton at a garden party, he’s captivated. Beneath her perfect manners, he discovers a woman of remarkable strength—and decides at once that he must have her.
Considered the most beautiful woman in Britain, Cassandra has spent years being told that her condition means she can never give a husband the family he deserves. She’s learned to live without hope of marriage at all.
Wade’s reputation as a scoundrel should make him the last man she’d trust. Instead, his bold pursuit awakens desires she’s spent years denying, until she can no longer resist a man who makes her feel beautiful, wanted, and gloriously alive.
But Wade wants more than a fleeting affair. When he offers Cassandra an escape to Cornwall, he promises what no other man ever has: a life of love and passion without the expectations of a conventional marriage or the fear of disappointing him. He will cherish her exactly as she is.
Cassandra has spent years believing she must give up love to protect the man she marries.
Wade intends to prove she never had to choose.
