His Second-Chance Duchess: A Clean Regency Romance
A duchess in mourning deserves a second chance at love

Sweet-natured Georgina, Dowager Duchess of Tyneham, was blessed to fall in love twice, once with an impoverished clergyman who chose career over her and once to her late husband, the duke. Better to hide her broken heart behind good works and a well placed lace-edged handkerchief. That is, until the new duke appoints a vicar to the village church, and Georgie comes face to face with her former love.

Raised in a London orphanage and risen to his current position by the kindness of patrons, Hugh Caddington knew long ago he had little to offer the pretty Georgie. Now she's a duchess, with everything she might want at her fingertips. What's a poor country vicar to do except show her every kindness and courtesy even as their former love rekindles?

As a thief plagues the little village, loyalties are tested, but nothing stands in the way of the duke and his matchmaking servants. Can Hugh turn Georgie's mourning into dancing, at their own wedding?

"I LOVE to read Regina Scott's books. They always feel comfortable. I honestly don't know how else to convey how 'at home' I feel when reading what she's written." – Hott Book Reviews

Three young, widowed duchesses, each with a reason not to marry again. One duke, honor bound to give them a happy-ever-after so he can find his own. Let the matchmaking begin!

If you like warm, witty Regency romances with servants involved in the matchmaking and romances both upstairs and down, then you'll love this historical romance by an award-winning, bestselling author.

About the Author

Regina Scott started writing novels in the third grade. Thankfully for literature as we know it, she didn’t actually sell her first novel until she had learned a bit more about writing. Since her first novel was published, her stories have traveled the globe, with translations in many languages including Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Portuguese. She now has now published more than 70 works of warm, witty romance and more than 1.5 million copies of her books are in reader hands. She and her husband of 35 years reside in Washington State on the way to Mt. Rainier. Regina Scott has learned to fence, dressed as a Regency dandy, driven four in hand, and sailed on a tall ship, all in the name of research, of course.
