He married the wrong sister. She plans to become the right wife.
A witty, sensual Regency Romance from Best Selling Author Emma V Leech
Oscar Paget, Duke of Rothborn, is a Corinthian to his core. If it involves speed, danger, or competition, he excels—and he has no intention of letting something as tedious as marriage interfere with his sporting pursuits. Engaged since infancy to the elegant Lady Pearl Aldous, he keeps postponing the wedding with the ease of a man who has never lost a race in his life. In every way, he is the quintessential stubborn Regency duke.

What he doesn’t realise is that Pearl’s younger sister, Ella, has adored him for as long as she can remember.

When Ella takes a reckless risk to save Oscar from losing a bet to a man he despises, disaster strikes. They are caught in a compromising position, and the only way to salvage her reputation is for Oscar to marry her instead of Pearl. Suddenly, the duke who avoids commitment finds himself trapped in a marriage of convenience with the last woman he ever expected.

To Oscar, Ella has always been a friend—sweet, loyal, and entirely unsuitable as a wife. He sees her as a little sister, not a woman who could ever tempt him. Their marriage, he insists, will be practical and nothing more.

Ella has very different ideas.

She has loved him all her life, and now that she is his duchess, she intends to show him exactly what he’s been too blind to see. All she must do is prove that the girl he overlooked is the woman he cannot live without—a classic friends‑to‑lovers transformation with a heroine determined to claim her chance at happiness.
