London, 1879. Annabelle Archer, the intelligent but impoverished daughter of a rural vicar, has gained admission to the esteemed University of Oxford as one of the first female students. She is required to assist the growing women's suffrage movement in exchange for her scholarship. Her mission: find powerful men to support their cause. Sebastian Devereux, the icy and cunning Duke of Montgomery who controls British politics at the Queen's behest, is her target. Her difficulty is to resist giving in to the overwhelming desire she feels for the guy who disagrees with everything she believes in.
Though Sebastian is horrified to discover a suffragist squad has broken into his ducal residence, his uncontrollable love for the beautiful Annabelle with emerald eyes pose a greater danger. Not an outspoken commoner who could never be his duchess, but a wife of equal rank to safeguard the heritage he has fought so hard to construct. However, he wouldn't be the Kingdom's best tactician if he couldn't seize this seductive bluestocking without the prospect of a ring—or could he?
Enmeshed in a conflict with escalating ardour and a determination that echoes her own, Annabelle will discover the necessary steps to overcome a duke.
A blazing love tale that threatens to topple the British social order pits the fiercely independent daughter of a vicar against a powerful duke, in novelist Evie Dunmore's remarkable debut with her Oxford suffragists.
