Blurb:
A cynical duke.
A tavern girl with nothing to lose.
A marriage neither of them expected.
Nathaniel Ellison, the powerful Duke of Scarsdale, has sworn never to fall in love.
The bitter marriage of his parents taught him one hard lesson—love makes fools of men. When the time comes, Nathan intends to marry only for duty… never for love.
Then he meets Sophia Vane.
Sophia is nothing like the polished ladies of London society. She’s a tavern girl with fierce determination, sharp wit, and a desperate plan to escape the cruel father who controls her life—and save her young brother before it’s too late.
Nathan should walk away.
Instead, he steps in to defend her… and finds himself drawn to the one woman who challenges everything he believes.
When scandal and danger force Nathan and Sophia into an unexpected marriage, their fragile alliance ignites into passion neither of them expected.
But Nathan’s fear of love runs deep, and Sophia refuses to surrender her heart to a man who may never trust it.
As betrayal and deadly secrets close in, they must decide whether to protect their hearts…
or risk everything for a love neither of them ever believed possible.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars -
I really enjoyed this audiobook and story. Nathan was a duke, and Sophia worked in a tavern with her cruel father. I adored the love, innocence, and intelligence of Sophia. She wanted to protect her brother and take him away from their father. Once she was in Nathan's orbit, there were plenty of tragic events, cruel gossips, a death announcement, and she fell for him quickly and whole-heartedly. She worked at proving she belonged by his side and succeeded. Nathan's past made him cold and wary of love, even though he showed a caring side from the beginning. I was so glad he finally admitted his true feelings.
The narration by Tim Campbell was well done. I enjoyed the different voices and found him very entertaining.
This is my unsolicited review.
