The Duke Who Married the Wrong Sister

When Christopher Whitmore, the Duke of Ashford, negotiates a marriage contract with the ambitious Waverly family, he expects to wed the dazzling, golden-haired Arabella — the toast of the Season and the sister every mother whispers about at Almack’s. What he does not expect is to find himself alone in a darkened library at Waverly House with the other sister: Juliette, the quiet, sharp-tongued one who reads too much and dances too seldom.

One interrupted moment, one witness, one catastrophic misunderstanding — and society demands satisfaction. The Duke of Ashford is a man of honour. He does the only thing a gentleman can: he marries the wrong sister.

Bound by a union neither wished for, Juliette and Christopher must navigate a shared life at his vast country estate, Ashford Park, while Arabella’s resentment poisons the waters between London and the countryside. As duty hardens into respect, and respect deepens into something far more dangerous, both leads must reckon with the question neither dares ask aloud: What if the wrong sister is, in truth, the only right choice either of them has ever made?

A slow-burn, forced-proximity Regency romance about a woman who was never meant to be seen — and the man who, once he started looking, found he could not stop.
