About this book
When the Duke of Darlington assigns himself to watch over the sharp-tongued, fiery Minerva Chase, he expects to manage her easily—instead, he finds himself utterly undone by her wit, her spirit, and the way her kiss makes him forget all his carefully constructed walls. Minnie isn't about to be intimidated by a pompous duke with secrets, especially when she recognizes the hurt he's hiding beneath all that arrogance, and she refuses to back down even as she realizes she's falling for him. As these two stubborn, guarded souls circle each other with biting remarks and stolen glances, they'll have to decide if they're brave enough to risk their hearts when they've both been hurt before. This is a delicious slow-burn romance filled with banter, vulnerability, and the kind of chemistry that makes you root for two people to finally stop fighting what they feel!
