Annabel, Fate's Defiance

An Enemies to Lovers Regency Romance (The Defiant Ladies of London)

I knew from the very moment I set eyes on her that I wanted her. And I always get what I want.

She vanished the night before our wedding.

No note. No warning. Just silence.

Everyone said to let her go. I couldn’t.

I found her in a London garden—flushed, furious, breathtaking. She tried to pretend I didn’t matter. That I was a mistake. That her fire wasn’t meant for me.

But I’ve never been good at pretending.

Not when she looks at me like that. Not when her lips part like she’s about to surrender, then close like she regrets it.

She fights me with every word. Every glance. Every breath.

And I can’t stop thinking about how she’ll sound when she finally stops fighting.

We married out of duty. But duty doesn’t make a man dream about touching his wife. Or wake with her name on his lips.

She wanted freedom.

Too late.

She’s mine now.

Excellent Series

I have enjoyed The Defiant Ladies of London series by Kerri Kastle. I look forward to the listening to the last book in the series.
