Synopsis

American heiress August Crenshaw has aspirations. But unlike her peers, it isn't some stuffy British Lord she wants wrapped around her finger—it's Crenshaw Iron Works, the family business. When it's clear that August's outrageously progressive ways render her unsuitable for a respectable match, her parents offer up her younger sister to the highest entitled bidder instead. This simply will not do. August refuses to leave her sister to the mercy of a loveless marriage.

Evan Sterling, the Duke of Rothschild, has no intention of walking away from the marriage. He's recently inherited the title only to find his coffers empty, and with countless lives depending on him, he can't walk away from the fortune a Crenshaw heiress would bring him. But after meeting her fiery sister, he realizes Violet isn't the heiress he wants. He wants August, and he always gets what he wants.

But August won't go peacefully to her fate. She decides to show Rothschild that she's no typical London wallflower. Little does she realize that every stunt she pulls to make him call off the wedding only makes him like her even more.

Contains mature themes.

The Heiress Gets a Duke is a charming delight and I can't w......more

Hero: Duke Evan is in a need of a rich wife to relieve him of his debt. He does not want to marry for money but he has tons of people relying on him. So, reg......more

3.5 Stars I listened to this book on audio and was instantly hooked from the start. August goes to a bare-knuckle fight with her friend and finds herself kissing one of the fighters. That fighter just so happens to be a duke in need of money. I will say, the beginning is definitely a highlight of the......more

Goodreads review by Christy

I am a sucker for a fun historical romance. Most of them tend to be regency romances, which is fine. But it’s so nice to see other time frames, even if the location is the same. The Heiress Gets a Duke is set in the Gilded Age (my fav). English aristocracy had found that it needed the new money of A......more
