The Beastly Duke's Christmas Bride

“You meant to go home, my lady… but you walked straight into the arms of a beast.”

With her family’s name shattered, Lady Isabel knows marriage will be nearly impossible for her. Not that she cares. But on a winter night, when her carriage breaks down, she wanders into the most dangerous streets of London—straight into the hands of the most terrifying man alive…
Duke Sebastian Vale is a beast. Yet even he never expected to find a trembling lady in the snow. Nor did he expect witnesses… or the scandal that follows at dawn. So he offers a cold bargain: marriage, to save them both.
He tells himself he must stay away. Yet every moment in her presence becomes a battle he is losing—slowly, helplessly—until he faces the truth he fears most: he would break every vow he ever made, just to keep her in his arms…

*If you like a realistic yet charming depiction of the Regency and Victorian era, then The Beastly Duke’s Christmas Bride is the novel for you.
