博客來He’s the wrong brother... but the right man for her.
Lady Ella has spent months quietly dreaming of Lord Oliver Sutton, the handsome and sought-after Duke of Hawkridge. When his carriage plunges into the Serpentine, Ella doesn’t hesitate, she dives in to save him. In the shock of the moment, with the duke unconscious and near death, she whispers that he was the man she was going to marry.
She never expected anyone to hear her.
But someone does.
Believing the duke’s ＂fiancée＂ has miraculously saved him, his grateful family insists Ella move into their home to aid his recovery. Though Oliver suffers from amnesia, everyone is thrilled he has finally chosen a respectable, kind-hearted woman. Everyone except his younger brother.
Lord Jack Sutton is not fooled. A seasoned shipping captain who’s dealt with con artists across the globe, Jack is determined to expose Ella as the fraud he’s sure she must be. Yet the more time he spends with her, the more he begins to question his instincts, and his own heart.
Ella is equally conflicted. Jack is nothing like the fairytale duke she once adored. He’s brash, blunt, and utterly wrong for her. And yet... he sees her, challenges her, and makes her feel truly alive.
But the truth can’t stay buried forever. And when it surfaces, Ella must decide if she has the courage to choose love over lies, and risk breaking more than one heart in the process.
