Blurb:
Escape to 1830s England when the worlds of a soldier turned duke and Cinderella are about to collide!
A duke
In sudden need of a duchess!
When Lieutenant Hartley returns home, it’s to become—reluctantly, he might add—the new Duke of Fenniston. If he’s to thrive in the ton, he must call on the help of widow Claire Hambledon, sister of the previous duchess, to guide him into society and help him find a wife!
Penniless and with a young son, Claire is well aware that she’s totally unsuitable for a duke. But she’s also completely unable to ignore the ripples of desire every time she’s near dashing Hart… Or the temptation to start a forbidden affair!
From Harlequin Historical: Your romantic escape to the past.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars -
I truly enjoyed this story. A soldier learning how to be a Duke with the assistance of an intelligent woman of lower class. Claire chose to prepare Hart for his duties as a landowner, a Duke, and a member of the ton. I loved her independence, smarts, and perceptions. She couldn't see her true worth, but Hart helped her realize it. Hart was so unsuspecting of his new world, but it allowed him to do things that were not quite what everyone expected. A well-told story that had me turning pages. I look forward to the next in the series.
I received an ARC, and this is my unsolicited review.
