About this listen

New York Times best-selling author Lorraine Heath continues her Once upon a Dukedom series with this lush love story of a duke who discovers what he desires in a wife may not be what he needs....

Hugh Brinsley-Norton, the duke of Kingsland, is in need of a duchess. However, restoring the dukedom - left in ruins by his father - to its former glory demands all his time, with little room for sentiment. He places an advert encouraging the single ladies of the ton to write why they should be the one chosen, and leaves it to his efficient secretary to select his future wife.

If there exists a more unpleasant task in the world than deciding who is to marry the man you love, Penelope Pettypeace certainly can’t imagine what it might be. Still, she is determined to find the perfect bride for her clueless, yet ruthlessly charming employer.

But when an anonymous note threatens to reveal truths best hidden, Kingsland has no choice but to confront the danger with Penelope at his side. Beguiled by the strong-willed, courageous beauty, he realizes he’s willing to risk everything, including his heart, to keep her safe within his arms. Could it be the duchess he’s hunting for has been in front of him all along?

Delicious and devilish!

I love this series. Well written and performed. When so many plot lines in this genre are predictable, nothing is predictable here. The reader is rewarded with plots and twists, and sub plots and even more twists with each chapter, and the bonus is that new information is gleaned regarding prior characters or books in the series. I will look for anything written by Heath or performed by Reading. I know it’s going to be a winner.

I enjoyed the book!

Lorraine health is just an amazing writer! 😭 The story kept me on my toes. Hugh and Penelope were a beautiful pair. When the secrets were revealed, I screamed. When I tell you, I was shook! 😂😂😂. Let’s not forget Kate reading. She’s just so good! She is one of my favorite narrators ever!

A story so good, I clapped out loud when it finished.

This may be my first Lorraine Heath novel-I’m not a huge fan of too many explicit scenes in a book so I was initially hesitant to spend a credit on it, but the author wrote all scenes in such a way that I was gripped to every word involving the two main characters. Well done.

What a great story. I smiled throughout, laughed at times, and clutched my heart at others. May we all hope to have a bit of Kingsland in our soulmates.

Will listen again. Excellent narration, loved it all. Well worth the credit!

My favorite of the Duke series. It has all the elements of a fantastic story ; Intelligent banter between the romantic characters and a well woven back story of both which explains their personalities. An enjoyable read!!
