New York Times bestselling historical romance author, Olivia Drake's new series, Unlikely Duchesses, starts with a steamy, touching second-chance romance...
Sensible Abigail Linton dutifully cared for her parents, nieces, and nephews for years. Now, a position as governess on a nearby estate offers a chance to find her own happiness at last. The only problem? Her new employer is Maxwell Bryce, the Duke of Rothwell, the infamous scoundrel who was her first love...and first heartbreak. Still, Abby accepts the position, comforted by the assumption that she'll never have to see that handsome face again.
But with no warning, Max arrives home, accompanied by his new lady of the week and his fellow friends in debauchery. Unwilling to leave her charge alone in such scandalous company, Abby does her best to avoid the man who broke her heart. Max is just as astonished to see Abby, the sweet girl next door who dropped him cold and abruptly stopped answering his heartfelt letters with no explanation...but he's not about to let his chance with her slip away again. She's even more spirited and witty than he remembers; and no one is going to steal his second chance at love!
