Duchess of Ash

Sybilla Marchetti has no reputation left to lose, so she marries the man three wives never survived. The Duke of Ashmore has terms: a name, a cold house, no children, and no questions. But the house at Ashmore answers every question she is not supposed to ask — hidden letters in the wainscot, footsteps in the east wing, and a brother-in-law who has never once left. To save him, Sybilla must uncover what the duke has spent years confessing to, and choose the marriage she was never promised. A marriage-of-convenience Regency historical romance with gothic secrets, slow trust, and a duchess who refuses her own escape clause.
