The Duke's Ruined Ward
An Enemies to Lovers Regency Historical RomanceBy Vivienne Locke
Length10h 2m
About this audiobook
He inherited a duchy, a debt, and a ward he never knew existed.
Miss Serena Vance has been raised in Lyon, ruined by her father's ledgers, and shipped to England like an unclaimed parcel. Her new guardian, the Duke of Ashbrook, is cold, controlled, and — according to her own happy discovery — rumored to have destroyed a woman's reputation with nothing but a closed door.
She has no intention of being his next mistake.
But when French creditors follow her across the Channel and threaten the duke's younger sisters, Serena and Ashbrook must present a very united front, up to and including a public engagement neither of them means to honor. In drawing rooms, orangery nights, and the prickly honesty of two people who have each been ruined once already, they discover something stranger than love: the possibility of being kept.
An enemies-to-lovers Regency romance with real heat and real grief.
