She’s playing matchmaker. He’s playing for keeps. And behind the masks at London’s most secret pleasure club, all bets are off.
Widowed and wiser, Meredith Drake has sworn off love—and marriage. But when her dearest friend returns from war, newly titled and in need of a duchess, she makes it her mission to find his perfect match.
Griffin Brooks is no longer the overlooked second son. Now a powerful duke, he’s ready to claim the one woman he’s never stopped wanting. But Meredith has her walls up—and Griffin has only one way to get play along with her matchmaking scheme while plotting to win her heart.
When their search leads them into the shadows of London’s most exclusive pleasure club, one masked encounter changes everything. As desire ignites and identities unravel, Griffin must prove that the duchess he wants…is the woman who thinks she can never be his.
Filled with steamy tension, masked desire, and friends-to-lovers sparks, this light yet angsty Regency romance is perfect for fans of Darcy Burke and Erica Ridley.
