A hidden identity complicates a second chance at love

Beau, Duke of Silchester, takes on the identity of Mr Edward Sheldon to spend time pursuing music away from the demands of his title. His meeting with Lady Viola Fenchurch—a widow wary of marriage after an abusive relationship—draws him into a romance shaped by the gap between who he is and whom she believes him to be. When danger threatens Viola and her children, marriage becomes tied to their protection, putting Beau’s deception and Viola’s trust at the heart of the story. This Regency romance brings together themes of music, family, personal independence, and the risks of beginning again.

Perfect for fans of Georgette Heyer and Bridgerton, a wonderful Regency romance from bestselling author Fenella J. Miller

A Duke's deception...

Tired of being at everyone's beck and call, Beau, the Duke of Silchester decides to masquerade as plain Mr Edward Sheldon for a few months in order to pursue his love of composing and playing piano music. At five and thirty he is convinced he will never marry but all this changes when he meets Lady Viola Fenchurch and her delightful children.

Viola, a widow, is equally convinced that she will never remarry after enduring an abusive marriage. She isn't looking for love, but despite her reservations she finds herself falling in love with Beau - who she believes is a commoner called Edward Sheldon.

But when Viola and her family are in deadly peril she turns to Beau for support and the only way he can protect them all is to through wedlock.

Can Beau convince her to marry him? And will his deception ruin any chance they have of happiness together?

Please note: This is a re-issue of The Duke's Bride by Fenella J. Miller
