A Reputation Reclaimed

Duty and Reputation before Love and Passion.

Lowen Roskelley, the sixth Duke of Carrivick, seeks the perfect bride to complement his prestigious title. But an infuriating encounter with a notorious vixen leaves him questioning his carefully laid plans.

Love and Passion before Duty and Reputation.

Miss Helena Hargreaves, the product of a love match, dreams of a husband who embodies her romantic ideals. After a chance encounter with a self-righteous duke threatens to ruin both their reputations, they decide to marry out of necessity.

Though neither is the partner they envisioned, both are determined to shape their marriage to their desires. Lowen wants a dutiful bride to grace his title, while Helena yearns for an attentive husband. But as their marriage reaches a crossroads, they must decide whether they can find common ground perhaps even love if their union will crumble before their eyes.
