Miss Julia Beaumont has exactly one night to find herself a husband...
The Weatherford Ball is the last chance Julia Beaumont has to escape the clutches of her horrid stepmother. Any potential husband will doโrich, poor, even a reasonably well-groomed walrus. But all of Juliaโs matrimonial chances are completely obliterated...thanks to the actions of an infuriating and utterly rakish duke.
Gregory Carter, Duke of Ashworth, would never risk his cherished bachelorhood by flirting with marriage-starved debutantes. But one look at the luscious and refreshingly clever Julia, and he simply canโt resist a stolen kissโscandal be damned. Then just as things start getting deliciously interesting, the lady flees...leaving only a slipper behind.
And it must have been one dandy of a kiss. Because now Julia has proposed to him. After all, the lady needs a husband, and this roguish duke will certainly do. Itโs simply a matter of making him the perfect scandalous offer...
