About this ebook

A proud spinster might be the answer to a cursed duke’s problems in this Regency romance by the USA Today–bestselling author of The Naked Duke.

Welcome to the charming, fatefully named village of Loves Bridge, where a woman destined for spinsterhood can live a life of her own choosing—or fall unexpectedly, madly in love . . .

Miss Isabelle Catherine Hutting would rather be lounging in the library than circling the ballroom in search of a husband any day. So, when Cat hears that the town’s infamous Spinster House is open for a new resident, she jumps at the chance to put all this marriage business behind her. But first she must make arrangements with her prospective landlord, Marcus, the Duke of Hart—the most handsome man she’s ever seen, and the only man who’s ever impressed her in the least . . .

Marcus can’t help but be stirred by Cat, with her wit, independent spirit, and not least of all her beauty. It’s terribly unfortunate he’s not looking to marry, given the centuries-old curse that left his family with the Spinster House to begin with. No duke shall live to see his heir’s birth. But is there a chance the curse could be broken—in true fairy-tale fashion—by an act of true love? The race to Happily Ever After is about to begin . . .

Praise for What to Do with a Duke 

“A masterful mélange of Regency romance pleasures. The small English town setting of Loves Bridge vibrates with heritable curses, tension between social castes and the insatiable longings of its beguiling inhabitants.” —BookPage

I am so into this series. The enchanting spell of The Spinster House. The star crossed romance of it's residences and the happily ever after you pray they will be able to achieve. I received an ARC of What to Do with a Duke by Sally MacKenzie in exchange for an honest review. This story was an absolute dream. Each character brought something to the story. Isabelle's innocence and cheer lit up the page every time and her stubbornness made her a great female lead. Marcus was dashing, aloof and handsome. He was also a puzzle. Could Isabelle be the missing piece? Sally Mackenzie will cast a spell on romance readers everywhere with this series.

The ending didn't tell us much. Wasn't satisfied with not knowing about whether he saw his baby born or not!
