Bewitching the Duke

Amidst a land of rolling hills and picturesque farms, common people scratch out a living shadowed by an aristocracy, fixed on expanding their holdings and wealth. It is a time of lustful ladies and scandalous men, uniting to fulfill family obligations and not for love. Women are bound to lifelong vows of marriage, hoping for a modicum of affection, while living days of servitude. This is not what Arianna Borges envisioned for herself. From the time she was a small girl, reared in a home with parents who adored one another, her magical gifts were immature, but powerful. A young witch, faced with the possibility of marrying for anything less than love, has few choices. For Arianna, the decision was obvious...a spell, a curse pronounced at a young age to prevent suitors from seeking her hand without the truest of intensions.

Spoken at an age and time when love seemed sure, Arianna regrets the bewitching, as months turn to years and a relationship seems impossible. However, from wisps of doubt and obscurity a scoundrel emerges, instilling a yearning within the beautiful witch that sparks hope and desire. He is a duke, a man of status and name and she is 'nothing', a common woman with a past. Their romance is electrifyingly passionate, pushing the limits of propriety, while forging a relationship bent on a lasting union.

Lust and eagerness sear red hot in the pages of this timeless romance, pitting the need for true, abiding love against social differences and boundaries, which endeavor to rip asunder the fabric of sincere love. Will the Duke of Devonshire, Rhys, put off his nobility for the love of a squire's daughter, a witch, or deny himself and his love? Download this steamy tale of forbidden love and discover the magic that adoration is destined to conjure.
