A dreadful mistake, curses and feuds, can there be a happy ending? Grace Whitford made the mistake of having a horrible megrim at her sister’s wedding on board Lord Carew’s ship. This in and of itself should not have been a disaster, except she went to sleep it off with a draught in a small dark cabin, and no one remembered to wake her up. By the time she awoke, the ship was well into the Channel and could not be turned around. Carew had to leave as soon as the wedding was over and the guests disembarked. He’d just received a letter calling him back to Ireland and he had to make haste.

To Adele Wilson the answer is clear: of course not. She has seen her two sisters dragged through scandal and heartbreak (not to mention every ballroom in London) to find the husbands of their dreams. And that's why she said yes to the first amiable British lord who requested her hand. And why shouldn't she marry him? He is kind, honest, and not sentimental in the least.

Lady Emily Hepplewhite and her sister Cecily, two daring impostors of humble origins, concoct a bold plan to secure a prosperous future.

Their mission: to charm the Duke into marriage and reclaim a life they lost. But the 'Devil' Duke is true to his name and infuriatingly uncooperative.

However, she will only agree on one condition: there must be no touching of any kind.
