She needed his money. He needed her reputation. Neither of them needed to fall in love.

Miss Viola Ashworth has spent six Seasons perfecting the art of useful invisibility, observing Society from behind her fan with the detachment of a naturalist and the wit of someone who really should have been born a barrister. She has no dowry, no illusions, and absolutely no intention of marrying anyone.

Then her father's gambling debts land on her desk, and suddenly she has a duke.

Charles Harrow, Duke of Ashmore, is everything his reputation promises, brooding, brilliant, and in possession of a past that casts a shadow over three counties. He needs a bride of impeccable reputation to satisfy the terms of his father's will, and he needs her before his thirty-third birthday. He does not need a wife who reorganises his breakfast room, interrogates his solicitor, and notices everything.

The arrangement is simple. The contract is clear. Six months, separate rooms, and absolutely no inconvenient feelings.

Neither of them lasts six months.

The Inconvenient Duchess is a slow-burn Regency romance featuring a marriage of convenience, a gloriously brooding hero with secrets worth keeping, a heroine sharp enough to cut glass, and enough tension to fuel an entire London Season.

Perfect for fans of Julia Quinn, Evie Dunmore, and anyone who has ever fallen for someone deeply inconvenient.
