Who doesn't love a duke? Start of a new Regency series!

~Perfect for fans of BRIDGERTON! Your new Regency obsession!~

"An endearing love story with wit, heart and fire." ~ Bree Wolf, USA TODAY Bestselling Author

“This book blew me away! Think Tessa Dare! One of the most romantic I’ve read in a long time." ~ RynnieReads Reviews

A scandalous countess plays matchmaker…for a man she once longed to take for herself.

Georgiana Whitcomb, Countess Winterbourne, is known as the Ice Countess for her rebellious ways and refusal to marry again. But a scandalous Christmas wager fashioned by Georgiana’s childhood obsession changes everything.

The demanding duke needs a bride…

Dexter Munro, mere days from becoming the Duke of Markham, made a promise to his dying father to find a wife by the Twelfth Night. Except the only woman he’s ever desired has vowed never to marry again. Not even to become his duchess.

Georgiana and Dex share a sizzling attraction and a wicked past…but is their scorching passion enough to melt the Ice Countess’ heart?

"Lush and romantic, The Ice Duchess weaves a beautiful tale of hidden desire and a second chance at love too long denied." ~ Sofie Darling, Award-Winning historical romance author

If you adore sexy Dukes, feisty Duchesses, and a steamy second-chance romance set in the magnificent Regency era, The Ice Duchess is the romance novel for you!

My Review - 4 of 5 stars - 

This was a sweet story. Georgiana and Dex had known and loved each other when they were young. Circumstance pulled them apart, yet they found their way back together. I loved how determined Dex was to heal and marry Georgiana. He was romantic, caring, and gentle. Georgiana had the presence of mind to realize her experience may have been one-sided and finally chose the right path. Her Duchess Society would be better for it as well.
