The Duke's Beloved

Lady Evelyn Hershaw has never been considered a beauty in society's eyes. Her sharp wit and intelligence have always been her saving grace, but when her best friend, the stunning and vivacious Lady Charlotte, catches the eye of the eligible Duke of Ashford, Evelyn knows that she will always be relegated to the role of the unremarkable wallflower.

Despite his initial interest in Charlotte, the Duke begins to find himself drawn to Evelyn's quiet charm and genuine kindness. As the two grow closer, they form an unexpected bond that threatens to upset the delicate balance of high society.

Amidst the gossip and scandal of Regency England, the Duke and Lady Evelyn must navigate their burgeoning feelings for each other, even as outside forces conspire to keep them apart. But with the help of their loyal friends and a healthy dose of courage, they may just find that true love can triumph over all.
