This Duke of Mine

Once Upon A Time...there was a Duke who wore a brass key around his throat. No one in the kingdom knew what it unlocked until SHE came along... Miss Magdalene Evelyn Barlow may be related to the Grimm brothers, but her life, even as an heiress, is anything but a fairy tale. Only one man can bring that tale to life: The Duke of Thornton. His gruff and isolating ways hide an overly passionate, guilt-ridden man who refuses to let any woman near until trouble-toting Magdalene rolls up her lace sleeves and introduces him to the scrubbing magic of...love. ​Length: Full length novel Heat Level: It will cause respectable people to swoon!
