Never Doubt a Duke's Desire: A Historical Regency Romance Book

Alone in the world, young orphan Louisa Stone learned her life lessons the hard way. Abandoned as a child, she had survived the harshness of poverty and a struggling country orphanage. Now, with her painful past behind her and her present in the home of the reclusive Duke of Westwood, Louisa wants nothing more than a quiet, invisible life. What she never expected, though, was the Duke to be so seductive that her temptation would be irresistible. Before she even realises it, a single touch sparks an attraction she had never expected to feel, and his scorching kisses burn like fire. Her body can't say no to this alluring, perfect man, but is she ready to risk everything in the name of undeniable love?

While struggling with pain of his own, Isaac Montagu, the Duke of Westwood, had withdrawn from society. After a series of crushing losses and devastating heartbreaks, he has given up any hope for love. Everything is about to change forever, though, when he first meets Miss Stone, a brilliant and stunning woman. At that moment, he realises that his determination to be alone might not hold for too long, as he is utterly mesmerised by her and a fire starts deep inside his chest. At their first kiss, his walls start to crumble and the more they are together, the more his long-buried desire to love and be loved is reignited. After all he's been through, will she be the one to save him from his misery or is he condemned to live in pain forever?

As Louisa draws out the person Isaac had hidden from the world for years, an old love comes back into Isaac's life, asking for a second chance. Afraid, and on the verge of dual heartbreak, Louisa and Isaac will face an inevitable dilemma; was their bond forged on the fragile connection of two lonely souls finding comfort, or could their desire turn into an everlasting love?
