A duke by any other name just might be scoundrel enough to fulfill all her requests.
And a partnership that changed everything...
Fredda St. George has a problem.
She's a virgin widow whose greedy in-laws want her marriage annulled—never mind that her husband is already dead. If she's to convince them otherwise and keep her independence, she needs proof of consummation for a marriage that no longer exists.
When a duke arrives to collect on a debt, Freddie mistakes him for a common solicitor.
Now he's stuck with the lie—and her most scandalous request.
He'll agree to unscramble her books and outwit her grasping relatives. But when every stolen moment draws them closer, will he draw the line at the one thing she truly needs?
Or will he risk everything by kissing her like a rogue?
