An opposites-attract Regency romp from bestselling humorous historical romance author DG Rampton.

• an irrepressible heroine who has a flexible relationship with scruples
• a formidable Duke who likes to keep his life respectable
• a mischievous monkey with a lack of respect for the Peerage
• a delightful tangle featuring meddling, mayhem, and a battle of wits

In this chart-topping instalment of the Regency Goddesses Series, a force-of-nature meets the one man who provides the perfect fuel to her fire.

“I think the women of your acquaintance have done you a great disservice by allowing you to continue in your deceit. Perhaps next time you meet a lady you will not be so quick to think she is only interested in fortune and matrimony!”

Miss Aurora Wesley is a lady who never allows a seemingly insurmountable problem to overwhelm her. Blessed with irrepressible optimism and ingenuity, she knows how to set about achieving her goals without the burden of excessive scruples. Whether it is establishing a brother to his rightful place in society, rescuing a young heiress from the clutches of her guardian, or match-making for a reticent spinster, Aurora is far too busy sorting out other people’s lives to worry about her own heart.

Until she meets the Duke of Rothworth.

After one extraordinary encounter, she discovers an overmastering desire to amuse herself by provoking this formidable gentleman and turning his well-ordered, respectable existence on its head.

He wants a quiet life. She has a talent for mayhem.

But as her games of provocation turn into something deeper, she realizes that the only person she hasn’t been able to "sort out" is herself. Now, the namesake of the Goddess of Dawn must decide if she’s brave enough to let the sun set on her independence and rise on a love she never saw coming.

Author's Comments

• The novels in the Regency Goddesses series are standalone and can be enjoyed in any order (although, there is one minor character who makes an appearance in all three novels - have you discovered them?).

• For those of you who are wondering what to expect in terms of heat, the content is sexually charged but perfectly clean.

• As I like to stay in period as much as possible, all spelling follows British English conventions.
