When a girl and a duke are married, everything is off limits.
The Duke of Ashbury has had a short but far from pleasant to-do list since his return from war: by day, he is a gloomy, glowering, intimidating London ne'er-do-well. A new item has been added to the list. He need a wife because he needs an heir. He instantly decides she'll do when Emma Gladstone, a seamstress turned vicar's daughter, shows up in his library wearing a bridal gown.
He uses basic language:
- Only at night will they be husband and wife.
- No cuddling, no lighting.
- His combat wounds are clearly visible.
Finally, and above all... Once she’s pregnant with his heir, they need never share a bed again.
Emma, however, is no coward. She has a few rules of her own: - Every evening, they will have supper together.
- Through discussion.
- And unrestricted taunting.
Finally, and above all... He can't stop her from falling in love once she sees the guy behind the scars.
