When a Duchess Says I Do

De: Grace Burrowes

Narrado por: James Langton

Treat yourself to a delightful Regency romance with a fairy-tale twist: "Grace Burrowes is terrific!" (Julia Quinn, author of the Bridgerton series).

Duncan Wentworth once tried his hand at rescuing a damsel in distress long ago, and he's vowed he'll never make that mistake again. Yet when he comes across a stranger in the poacher-infested woods of his estate, decency compels him to offer the lady aid. Matilda is whip-smart, she can read Duncan's horrible penmanship, and when she wears his reading glasses all Duncan can think about is naughty Latin poetry.

Widowed duchess Matilda Wakefield can't entrust her secrets to Duncan without embroiling him in the problems that sent her fleeing from London, but neither can she ignore a man who's honorable, a brilliant chess player, and maddeningly kissable. She needs to stay one step ahead of the enemies pursuing her, and falling into Duncan's arms is a distraction she can't afford—or they'll both pay the price.

Finding his love

Loved the book. Grace Burrowes is such a talented writer. Matilda had been on the run for months. When she comes upon 2 poachers holding a knife at another man she steps in with her gun and helps the gentleman. Duncan was grateful to the woman and has her comes back to the estate.
Duncan offers her a position to scribe his travel diaries. Matilda is tired from all her running and she accepts his offer temporarily.
Duncan knew she was hiding from someone but how can he get her to trust him.
A beautifully written story where both the hero and heroine are meant to be together. The narrator James Langton did an exceptional read.
