About this ebook

What happens when one impulsive act leads to an unexpected, unforgettable encounter?

Rayne Wellbrook doesn’t belong in London’s elite society. Not really. As the step-niece of a powerful duke, she plays the part—while sneaking away for stolen moments of peace, often through the neighbor’s garden wall. When she’s caught trespassing by a rakishly handsome stranger with a Scottish burr and far-too-knowing eyes, her carefully guarded independence falters.

Fletcher McQuinton, Duke of Kincade, is in London on business and determined to return to Scotland as soon as possible—without a wife in tow. Especially not one of England’s spoiled debutantes. But his plans unravel when he encounters the spirited young woman climbing over his garden wall. She’s not what he expected, not at all… and suddenly, Fletcher isn’t so eager to leave.

With meddling family, mismatched expectations, and stubborn hearts in the way, Rayne and Fletcher must decide if they’ll cling to the lives they planned—or risk everything for the love neither saw coming.

I loved the two main characters in The Debutante and The Duke. Rayne Wellbrook is a charming, innocent who loves to secretly visit the gardens of the vacant, neighboring estate next door. She is surprised to meet a very virile and handsome man with a brogue one day when she visits the gardens. Fletcher McQuinton is enchanted with Rayne when he meets her and wants to see her again. Rayne is living with her step-aunt and her husband after having lived with a debauched, guardian uncle after her parents’ death. Rayne, normally wary of men and uncomfortable around them, felt an unusual but immediate attraction to Fletcher. I greatly enjoyed how the author portrayed the growing romance between the two main characters and how they overcame the tribulations they faced before they found their happily ever after. So sweet. The writing flowed well and maintained my interest throughout the work. There were sweetly-spicy innuendos in this work but no intimate scenes for those who like to know ahead of time. I was given an ARC of this work and offer this voluntary review with a rating of 4 stars. All opinions stated are my own.

A gorgeous Scottish Duke and a delicate English rose meet over a garden wall. I enjoyed this charming romance. The Debutante and the Duke is book eleven in the Seductive Scoundrels series. It can be read as a stand-alone, but this “Scoundrel” world will make more sense if it’s read in order. I liked the heroine Rayne but there were moments when she seemed too “Snow White” like. I could picture birds coming and resting on her fingers as she sang in the garden. I did enjoy her humor and wit. There are a number of funny moments. This is a sweet and clean romance.
