A Widow to Defy the Duke
ByPublisher Description
"This second installment of Shepherd’s 'Rakes, Rebels and Rogues' series (after A Wager To Win the Debutante) is a steamy Victorian romance about reputation and redemption." - Library Journal

but she won’t be his wife!
Growing up believing he was the illegitimate son of a duke, Isaac Radcliff is shocked to discover his late parents had been married—and he’s the new Duke of Hartfield! But first Isaac must claim his seat from his father’s young widow, Adelaide…
Isaac’s roguish smile and handsome face ignite a visceral attraction in Adelaide, making her realize the passion her marriage had been missing. While marrying Isaac is a way to keep her home, she’s defiant. She’s had one convenient marriage—this time it’s a love match or nothing!
