The Temporary Duchess

“If you ever strip in front of me again, I can’t promise to exercise the same control.”

Determined to uncover the truth about her brother’s disappearance, Lady Elara sneaks into the masquerade ball of the man rumored to be behind it all.
Duke Constantine has no intention of keeping a wife. But when his enemy’s sister traps him into the same room with her, scandal forces his hand.
Their union is temporary. Elara plans to endure the marriage long enough to get her answers. Constantine plans to end it the moment his brother returns. Only… the closer the end draws, the harder it becomes to remember their marriage was never meant to last.
