The Story

Synopsis of Always Be My Duchess

Lord Lysander Blackstone, the stern Duke of Montcroix, has only one interest: increasing his considerable fortune. After a series of betrayals, he keeps his emotions buried deep. Money, after all, can’t break a man’s heart—or make promises it can’t keep. But when his reputation for being heartless jeopardizes a new business deal, he finds himself seeking a most unusual—and alluring—solution . . . 

Once an up-and-coming ballerina, Miss Geneviève Valery is now hopelessly out of work. After refusing to become a wealthy patron’s mistress, Nève was promptly shown the door to the streets. When she accidentally saves the life of a handsome duke, she doubts the encounter will go any better than her last brush with nobility. But instead of propositioning her, Montcroix makes Nève an offer she would be a fool to refuse: act as his fake fiancée in exchange for fortune enough to start over.

Only neither is prepared when very real feelings begin to grow between them. They both stand to win . . . but only if they’re willing to risk their hearts.

My Review

Another fun historical fiction romance with a witty and strong female protagonist plus a handsome broody Duke she’ll ensnare, this delicious new romance will have romance readers ready for a new series to devour.

If you’re a reader who loves a good fake engagement trope, steamy romance, and a story about how two people find happiness, Always Be My Duchess will be a perfect read for you.

Happy Reading ~ Cece
