A Royal Match

When Weslorian Princess Amelia is sent to England before she can cause a scandal, she imagines London society with ballrooms and grand houses. Instead, she is sent to a quiet village in Devon, where she finds her new home shabby and under renovation. Next door lives the reclusive Duke of Marley, Joshua Parker. When Joshua is dragged by a friend to his neighbour’s soiree to meet their new guest, he and Amelia instantly dislike each other. Their banter is heated. He’s stuck-up and arrogant; she’s a self-involved, annoying princess.

Having been jilted, Hattie Woodchurch has no prospects. Until she is asked by the visiting Duke of Santiava, Mateo, to be his personal assistant. He needs help with his correspondence and Hattie, with her intelligence and wit, is ideal. But royal protocol demands Mateo also find a wife from English society, and Hattie is perfect for advice on ladies of note. With her blunt and honest opinions, Mateo soon finds himself relying on Hattie’s guidance. Until it comes time to choose a wife, and Mateo realises only one woman truly captures his attention.
