The Duke's Unexpected Bride (Harlequin, #452)

by Lara Temple

From country miss…to London duchess!

Sophie Trevelyan has been enjoying her visit to London, even if her closest companion is an overweight pug! Then she encounters the dashing Duke of Harcourt, who intrigues her more than is strictly proper…

Max knows he must marry. He’s looking for the opposite of his high-spirited fiancée, who died some years ago, so he tries to keep his distance from bubbly Sophie. But when her life is endangered, Max feels compelled to rescue her…with a very unexpected proposal!

I absolutely loved this book. I must admit, I have a pension for Dukes and I tend to lean towards them in the Historical Regency books. I can't help it. It's something about being the highest-ranking Alphahole (yes please) in the room and just lording over everybody. I just love it. haha

I am also a big fan of the whole "rags to riches" theme and I also love Unexpected marriages where something happens and they get thrown together. I must admit I am a heavy reader of a "wham bam thank you mam" sort of books haha.

But this book hit all my good places and I loved it. Lara Temple did not disappoint.
