<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> From the always witty and delightful "New York Times"-bestselling author Burrowes comes the second installment of her Rogues to Riches series--an enchanting Regency romance with a fairy-tale twist.

Original. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>Treat yourself to a delightful Regency romance with a fairy-tale twist "much in the manner of Mary Balogh." (<i>Kirkus</i>) </b><br>Duncan Wentworth once tried his hand at rescuing a damsel in distress long ago, and he's vowed he'll never make that mistake again. Yet when he comes across a stranger in the poacher-infested woods of his estate, decency compels him to offer the lady aid. Matilda is whip-smart, she can read Duncan's horrible penmanship, and when she wears his reading glasses all Duncan can think about is naughty Latin poetry.<br>Widowed duchess Matilda Wakefield can't entrust her secrets to Duncan without embroiling him in the problems that sent her fleeing from London, but neither can she ignore a man who's honorable, a brilliant chess player, and maddeningly kissable. She needs to stay one step ahead of the enemies pursuing her, and falling into Duncan's arms is a distraction she can't afford-or they'll both pay the price.<br><b>"Grace Burrowes is terrific!" --Julia Quinn</b><br><b>"Grace Burrowes is a romance treasure." --Tessa Dare</b><i><br></i><b><i>Library Journal </i>Best of the Year</b><b><i>Publishers Weekly</i> Bestseller! </b><b>BookPage "2019 Most Anticipated Romances"</b><b>Bookish "Spring 2019 Must-Read Romances"</b> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "An intelligent, resourceful heroine and a hero who comes into his own bond over fierce games of chess, spirited banter, rapier wit, and mutual attraction in <b>a sweet, passionate romance that is sure to enchant</b>."--<b><i>Library Journal, starred review</b></i> </br></br>"An unusual pair of smart and worldly but reticent lovers; a modern sensibility about themes of consent, class, and disability; and a surprising and adventurous plot make Burrowes's latest Rogues to Riches Regency satisfyingly relatable nerdy escapism...<b>will warm readers' hearts to the core</b>." --<b><i>Publishers Weekly, starred review</b></i> </br></br>"Burrowes is a writer of towering talent."--<b><i>USA Today Happy Ever After on My One and Only Duke</b></i> </br></br>"Grace Burrowes is terrific!"--<b><i>Julia Quinn, #1 New York Times bestselling author</b></i> </br></br>"Grace Burrowes writes from the heart--with warmth, humor, and a generous dash of sensuality, her stories are unputdownable!
