A newly minted duke is determined to have the beautiful commoner he will never forget in this sexy Regency romance series finale.

When American-born James Cavendish arrives in London tomorrow, he’ll become the Duke of Durham. Some might be ecstatic at the opportunity. Not James. He’s a simple man, fond of simple pleasures. And right now, nothing could be more pleasurable than spending his last night of freedom with a beautiful stranger.

One wild night, Meredith Green, companion to the dowager Duchess of Durham, said yes to a man she thought she’d never see again. Suddenly, they’re living under the same roof, where Meredith is expected to teach James how to be a duke—while trying not to surrender to temptation a second time.

For a duke and a commoner, marriage would be pure scandal. Yet nothing has ever felt as right to James as having Meredith in his arms . . . and in his bed. Soon he must choose—between a duty he never desired, and a woman he longs for, body and soul . . .
