Bound by duty. Torn by desire.
Contented serving as a physician in America, Dr. Harry Radcliffe never imagined he'd return to England as the Duke of Ashton. Inheriting the title upon his brother's untimely death, Harry is nothing like his cruel twin. Yet, his resemblance to the late duke makes his brother's beautiful widow wary.
Left destitute by her abusive husband, Margaret Radcliffe remains resilient and struggles to rebuild her life. Yet she can't ignore the uncanny likeness Harry bears to the man who tormented her. And even if her heart whispers that Harry is different, her mind remains cautious.
As Harry navigates the treacherous waters of society to find a bride and secure his dukedom, he finds himself irresistibly drawn to Margaret. Battling their growing feelings, their forbidden attraction risks scandal and the legitimacy of any future children.
In a world where duty and desire collide, can Harry and Margaret overcome the shadows of the past and find a love strong enough to withstand the trials ahead?

Margaret Radcliffe, never having met her brother-n-law was in shock when he arrived., for he and her deceased brother ware identical twins. She expected that he was just as cruel as her decased husband. She was wrong.
This is a great stor of two individuals who slowly discover who each other were and the twist and turns of signle young ladies and their mothers who wanted to snag a Duke for their daughs. In the end they did not.
Must read so you kow what happened. And I loved the fact that there was two narrators in the telling of the story.
Love it!

The Reluctant Duke's Dilemma by Trisha Messmer is an absolute triumph in historical romance. From the very first chapter, I was drawn into the emotional depth of Harry and Margaret’s story. Messmer masterfully portrays Harry’s struggle to step into a role he never wanted and Margaret’s journey of healing after a harrowing past. Their forbidden connection is beautifully written, with a slow-burn romance that feels both authentic and heart-wrenching.
The narration by Duke DeFoix and Duchess DeFoix is superb. Their voices perfectly capture the nuances of each character’s emotions, drawing the listener deeper into the story. The palpable tension between duty and desire is heightened by their performances, making every scene resonate.
Messmer balances poignant themes of grief and resilience with moments of hope and tenderness, creating a story that is both moving and satisfying. If you love rich character development, historical authenticity, and a romance that tugs at your heartstrings, The Reluctant Duke's Dilemma is a must-listen. I can’t wait to explore more of The Hope Clinic series!

This audiobook is unique in that it uses both a male and female narrator. This really adds to the story. The few other books I've listened to have been just a single female voice. I think this format is much better. I'm several chapters in, and I'm having a hard time keeping my listening confined to my commuting time.
I received a free download from the author and this is my honest opinion.
