“Deliciously sexy!”-Sarah MacLean, New York Times bestselling author

An urgent dilemma...

To save her impoverished family, Marian Langley will become a mistress. But she will not be just any mistress. Marian intends to become so skilled, so coveted, that she can set her own terms, retaining control over her body and her fate. Only one problem remains: finding a tutor...

A scandalous solution...

Other men deprive themselves of pleasure for propriety's sake. Nathaniel, Duke of Warrington, would much rather be depraved. He slakes his desires with professionals who ask nothing of him but his coin. Marian's proposal-that he train her without taking her virtue-is an intriguing diversion, until their lessons in seduction spin out of control.

And a most unlikely duchess...

When Marian is blackmailed into engagement by a man she despises, Nate impulsively steals her away. Though he never intended to take a wife, he can't tolerate the idea of Marian forfeiting her freedom to another. But can he bear to give her what she demands-a real marriage?

Fans of historical romance will be swept away by Sophie Jordan's latest addition to her beloved Rogue Files series.

The Duke's Stolen Bride is a scandalously sensual tale of two unlikely lovers who find themselves entangled in a web of desire and deceit.

Perfect for fans of Sarah MacLean and Tessa Dare.

To prevent an impoverished governess from marrying the wrong man, a duke lives up to his bad reputation and steals her away.

Marian Langley is crouched under a table, hiding from one of her creditors, when she first bumps into Nate, the so-called "depraved" Duke of Warrington. She's heard rumors that he hides courtesans in his home, but at least he lets Marian hide under his table until her creditor leaves. Rather than marry an unappealing rich man to settle her debt, Marian asks Nate to train her in the art of seduction so she can become a courtesan and live on her own terms. Her one condition is that he can't deflower her—she's saving that honor for the highest bidder once she's skilled. At first, Nate isn't interested in ruining a nice girl's prospects. His own beloved wife is dead, and his loneliness requires professional help. But he'll do it to win a bet with his man of affairs. Nate and Marian agree to be discreet, but their lessons quickly pick up steam, and it's not long before someone uncovers their secret. To protect her from ruin, Nate abandons his plans, follows his heart, and insists on marrying her. But before she can claim her happily-ever-after, Marian will have to settle her debt to an unhappy creditor. She isn't exactly a free woman now, but she is much less inhibited. And despite his reputation for depravity, Nate proves his true skill as a lover by following her lead.

Depravity is no match for true love in this sweet and steamy read.
