About this ebook

She threatens to conquer his heart…

When Matthew Donovan, Duke of Brunswick, proposes to Sarah Townsbridge, she’s shocked. After all, she’s never met him before. One thing is clear though – he obviously needs help. So after turning him down, she decides to get to know him better, and finds out she’s right. But fixing a broken man is not the same as adopting a puppy. Least of all when the man in question has no desire to be saved.

Matthew has his mind set on Sarah. Kind and energetic, she’ll make an excellent mother. Best of all, her reclusiveness is sure to make her accept the sort of marriage he has in mind – one where they live apart. The only problem is, to convince her, they must spend time together. And the more they do, the more he risks falling prey to the one emotion he knows he must avoid at all cost: love.

Delightful! Are you in the mood for a quick and really good book to read well this is the one to pick up. First off you met Sarah and trust me you will feel for the poor lady. But what starts to turn to be a decent day in walks Brunswick. Poor Matthew when talking to Sarah's mother and father he is missing the point completely. All this happens in the first chapter but there is more because Sarah has a plan. This book was delightful! The dialogue and interaction between all the characters were great. This book put a smile on my face I am so happy I got the chance to read it. I do know it will be one that I will re-visit again and again. I did receive a free copy of this story and voluntarily chose to review it.

What happens if you say no to the Duke next door, with whom you have never spoken, when he crashes your mother’s garden party, and if front of your prospective suitors drops to one knee, holds up a ring and says “marry me?” It seems you are stuck with him or life as a spinster. The is the scene at the beginning of the story of Matthew Donovan, Duke of Brunswick, and Miss Sarah Townsbridge. What happens now? These two people are complete opposites. Sarah is a happy, caring, kind, and loving. She rescues animals and wants a marriage based on love, just like her parents and siblings. Matthew is a recluse, emotional paralyzed by the tragic loss of his family when he was very young. He wants a marriage devoid of love and with as little contact with his wife as possible. He just wants someone to manage his home and care for his children. Matthew is determined to win her, and she is willing to allow him to court her. I loved how their story developed one slow step at a time. Lots of hurtles along the way, but our feisty heroine is up to challenge. A time or two I felt like Matthew need a good punch in the nose. Charles did, too, so he gave him one. This one starts with you shaking your head and ends warming your heart. I recommend it. I received an ARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. My review is voluntarily.
