by Tessa Dare

Release Date: August 22nd 2017
When girl meets Duke, their marriage breaks all the rules… 

Since his return from war, the Duke of Ashbury’s to-do list has been short and anything but sweet: brooding, glowering, menacing London ne’er-do-wells by night. Now there’s a new item on the list. He needs an heir—which means he needs a wife. When Emma Gladstone, a vicar’s daughter turned seamstress, appears in his library wearing a wedding gown, he decides on the spot that she’ll do.

His terms are simple:
- They will be husband and wife by night only.
- No lights, no kissing.
- No questions about his battle scars.
- Last, and most importantly… Once she’s pregnant with his heir, they need never share a bed again.

But Emma is no pushover. She has a few rules of her own:
- They will have dinner together every evening.
- With conversation.
- And unlimited teasing.
- Last, and most importantly… Once she’s seen the man beneath the scars, he can’t stop her from falling in love…

Why I'm Waiting

To say I've been on a Regency Romance binge lately is a bit of an understatement. I've always loved this genre but had gotten immersed in YA so much over the past couple of years. I am so happy that I've found my way back and I also think my taste are evolving as a reader. I may just be a romance reading addict!

    *happy sigh* I actually just read this book today and I loved it. I don't know how Dare does it! I've yet to read a book by her that I didn't love. I hope you enjoy this one when you get the chance to read it!

    Have a lovely week, Miranda. =)

by Julia Quinn
{Review & Giveaway}

While you were sleeping...  With her brother Thomas injured on the battlefront in the Colonies, orphaned Cecilia Harcourt has two unbearable choices: move in with a maiden aunt or marry a scheming cousin.

But after a week of searching, she finds not her brother but his best friend, the handsome officer Edward Rokesby. He's unconscious and in desperate need of her care, and Cecilia vows that she will save this soldier's life, even if staying by his side means telling one little lie...
