Seven Dukes of Sin #4
Duke of Eccess
Mariah Stone
A mad heiress. A damaged duke. Christmas in London will never be the same...
Octavius Everard, the wealthy Duke of Eccess, indulges in London’s most decadent offerings to escape the pain that haunts him—especially at Christmas.
The richest food, the best cognac and the most beautiful women make the “happiest” time of the year a little more bearable. The one sin he has sworn to abstain from? Seducing the governess to his three wards. But when Miss Temperance Fields applies for the position, with her tight chignon and no-nonsense brown woolen gown, he’s never been so fascinated. Little does he know she has a scandalous secret…a false identity.
Lady Agatha Temperance Hale is an heiress on the run! Threatened with forced marriage or the asylum, she is at the mercy of her gold-digging stepmother until she comes of age on Christmas Day. Being a governess gives her a place to hide. And Temperance is soon showing the duke the joys of the season and sharing her love of science with his wards.
But she never imagined the pleasures her gorgeous employer could show her. And when the virgin governess becomes a seductress, the Duke of Eccess doesn’t stand a chance of resisting…or guarding his heart.
Their passion is electric.
Their love is forbidden.
But when the truth is revealed, can he forgive the woman he has come to adore more than any indulgence?
REVIEWA count down to Christmas. I’m a huge fan of the deadly sins and was so excited when the next instalment for the Duke of Sins landed on my kindle. I love the way this series weeps you into a historical time.
The heiress is on the run and a countdown to Christmas is end game. She needs to stay in hiding until she comes of age so her can escape her stepmother.
The Duke of Eccess is looking for someone to take care of the children who have ended up in his care. Ms Fields, our secret heiress applies for the job and the Duke gains more than a teacher for the children.
I really enjoyed this book and love the warming atmosphere. The world building really sucks you in and this couple have all the feels.
