"A Deal With a Duke" by Mary Miller
Author's Book Description : A SWEET REGECY ROMANCE
In the days of masquerade balls and dance halls filled with pretty women and handsome men, Cynthia Vogel feels somewhat out of place and out of balance. After the death of her husband years before, she was left with an enormous fortune but also high debt. Satisfied with her life alone and her freedom, Cynthia vows never to marry again and to continue her independence for the rest of her life.
Duke Daniel Willingham has been searching for a bride feverishly for some time, courting and rejecting women on a regular basis and is now under the threat of disinheritance if he does not wed by his 30th birthday. But Daniel doesn’t want any regular lady of the ball. He searches for someone unique, someone different from the rest.
When Daniel and Cynthia meet by chance, something stirs in them that draws them together for the deal of the season. They both have much to lose…and much to win…
This is a short-story romance with NO cliffhanger and includes various bonus stories at the end. Enjoy!
My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars, when Cynthia's husband passed away some years ago, she was left a fortune, but also found he owed a ton of debt. Thankfully, her debt collectors have been nice about letting her slowly pay them back, however she isn't sure for how much longer they'll be that way. Yet, even though she is in no hurry to get married again when Daniel proposes a deal that could solve both their problems, it seems too good to be true. Is it?
This short story is a very sweet historical romance about two independent thinkers falling in love during unexpected circumstances. I found both Daniel and Cynthia intriguing characters I just wish I could read more about them.
Now just so you know when Amazon says that this novel's file size is 3437 KB and it's, in total, 630 pages long that is because Ms. Miller has included a BUNCH of ADDITIONAL FULL short stories after "A Deal With a Duke," which are by herself and Anna Hauck. I didn't read any of the extra stories but some of them look interesting and they are set in multiple genres, this is basically like an anthology.
Therefore, if you’re looking for a quick clean historical romance then I'd recommend this short story to you!
