A brief overview of The Reluctant Duchess (book 2 in the Ladies of the Manor series):
After an attack that changes her life, Rowena Kinnaird, heir to a Scottish Earldom, longs for nothing more than to leave everything behind her, to escape from her father. Flee from the man she’s intended to marry. From a life she believes she doesn’t deserve, isn’t worth.
Enter the Duke of Nottingham, a man Rowena has not met before yet offers her the means to escape she desperately desires. But is she exchanging the nightmare she knows for one she doesn’t? Will running to a county she’s never seen, where everyone will look down on her despite her new station, deter her from being able to finally stand on her own? To discover who she truly is?
And what of the rumors swirling about the Duke and some cursed diamonds? Is she in even more danger in her new life than in her old?
