The Lady The Duke And The Gentleman: A Historical Regency Romance

Abby Ayles
 TALES OF MAGNIFICENT LADIES   Book Six

Miss Antoinette Byrd feels ready to marry. As her friends and cousins find their happily every afters, she dreams of the day her own handsome husband will meet her at the end of the aisle. Finally, her parents, who have been hesitant due to her immaturity and rebelliousness, agree to let her see some suitors. Antoinette is immediately won over by Duke Alexander Godwin, a man who has it all.

He is handsome, incredibly wealthy, a Duke, and one of the bravest, wittiest, most charming men she has ever met. Every minute by his side feels like she is being swept up in a fairytale romance about princes and princesses. And yet, her parents keep her options open with other suitors. Antoinette is at first unsure why they are not locking down Duke Godwin as soon as possible, but as time goes by she begins to realize that, however, dreamy Duke Godwin is, they have very little real chemistry.

In fact, of all her suitors, one seems to shine brighter than the rest… But is he the right man for her?
In the midst of Christmas celebrations, the return and near loss of a dear childhood friend, a threat to her family’s wealth, and her sister’s marriage hitting a seemingly insurmountable hurdle, Antoinette feels pressured to make her choice. And deep down, she knows that the choice she most wants to make is one that would break her parents’ hearts.

But choosing the wrong suitor would break hers.
