A swoon worthy, heart warming, and beautiful romance! The story follows Lady Clara Ashford and Quincy Nesbitt (newly titled Duke). Clara has no intention of getting married and has a devastating secret while Quincy has just been titled Duke when all he wants to do is travel the world and can’t wait to get away from his family. Quincy ran away from his family at a young age after his father died, attempting to get away from the pain his family caused him but he’s returned to visit his friend Peter, Clara’s cousin. Clara and Quincy find themselves in an unexpected predicament...... a fake engagement, to throw off Clara’s matchmaking attempts and leave Clara in peace, and to help Quincy fend off his mother’s attempts to trap him. The biggest issue? They just can’t seem to keep their hands off each other. I absolutely loved reading their story and finding more about them, Quincy and Clara both hold a lot of depth and pain, and have such a capacity for love and care. I adored getting to know them and their heart warming love story. I laughed, I cried, and I absolutely fell in love with both Quincy and Clara! This is such a great romance read, and I whole-heartedly recommend this for anyone looking for a romance that will touch your heart and maybe shed a tear or two!
