Summary
The flirtatious Duke has finally found his bride!
Simon, Duke of Hastings, the most attractive man in the social world. He pretends to be in a relationship with his friend’s sister, Daphne, and tries to escape the socialite matchmakers who are after him. Simon vowed never to marry for the rest of his life because of his unhappy childhood, but for some reason, his heart pounds every time he sees the seductive Daphne.
After two seasons of socializing, Daphne Bridgerton has become a staple of the marriage market. She thought that if Simon, the groom that every woman wanted, became the woman she cared about, other men would ask her to marry him. Sometimes, however, Daphne forgets that her fake romance with Simon is nothing more than a gimmick. Was it because of his intense blue eyes, or because of the burning heart in his arms?
