The Royle sisters arrive in London determined to uncover
the mystery surrounding their birth. It is their belief
that they are the triplets of Mrs. Fitzherbert, the
mistress of the Prince. Mary gets sidetracked from their
mission when she falls in love with Viscount Wetherly. With
single-minded determination, Mary sets out to bewitch the
viscount. Unfortunately, Mary discovers the viscount's
brother, Rogan, is equally resolved that she not marry into
the family. As Rogan places obstacles in her path, Mary
accepts the challenges and tries to outwit him.
After watching his stepmother manipulate his father, Rogan,
the Duke of Blackstone, distrusts women in general. He
believes marriage is a business arrangement between
families and does not intend to let his little brother fall
into a trap with a wily woman. After meeting Mary, Rogan
begins his campaign of ploys and distractions. Finding
himself in a game with a worthy opponent, Rogan discovers
he is attracted to the tenacious vixen.
As the campaign of wills mounts, Rogan and Mary realize
their perceptions of each other are undergoing a dramatic
change. Anger and resentment are giving way to affection...
and possibly love?
The first in a trilogy, HOW TO SEDUCE A DUKE, successfully
interlaces the Royle sisters' mysterious background with an
entertaining romance and a strong conflict between the
protagonists. Ms. Caskie gives readers a pleasant tale that
warms the heart.
Why is the notorious Duke of Blackstone ruining Mary
Royle's well-laid plans to marry his brother, the handsome
Viscount Wetherly? Every time she turns a corner, he is
there-tantalizing her, teasing her . . . and the more she
tries to ignore him, the more insistent he becomes. Mary
knows she must make an advantageous marriage, but surely
Blackstone is the wrong man for her. Isn't he?
Blackstone is not about to let his brother become bewitched
by some wily blueblood pretender . . . even one as
deliciously tempting as Mary. But until she came along, no
woman has ever resisted his smooth, well-practiced
seductions. Could it be that he's actually fallen in love
with this infuriating chit?
