PLEASE NOTE: There are THREE VERSIONS of this story available. The story is the SAME; the only differences are the "heat" level of sensuality. You are currently looking at the most explicit version of this story.
This novel is the "After Dark” version of Allegra and Adam’s story. It's all about the power struggle these two headstrong characters have with each other. In addition, "A Duchess Enraged" lays out the hottest private – and public – details of Adam's life on the Grand Tour as well as his tempestuous relationship with Lady Manning and his wife. If you like your romance with strong, commanding men and equally strong women along with a few spanks and assorted other "After Dark" pleasures, you're sure to love "A Duchess Enraged."
It's 18th century London, where an Earl loses a vast sum of money to his good friend, a Duke. To settle the debt, the Earl suggests that he marry his fourteen year old daughter to the Duke’s twenty-one year old son. The marriage takes place the next morning. She is terrified, and he is furious. Calling her an ugly dowd, he leaves immediately after the ceremony on the Grand Tour and does not return for four years. When he returns, two adults who have barely met, and don’t even recognize each other must build a marriage. Can these two strong and determined personalities learn to overcome the resentments of the past, and convert the misunderstandings of the present into a passionate love affair on which they can build a life? The novel is based on a true story, that of the Earl of March and Lady Sarah Cadogan. The historical details can be found in my blog at AHeyerLove.com.
If you're more interested in intrigue and romance without physicality, you'll love my "Traditional" version of this story, "A Most Unusual Situation", available on Amazon. It focuses on character and plot, and falls on the mild end of the sensuality scale. "London's Latest Rage" is the "Modern" version of this love story and brings to life the physical and emotional relationships between them. The heart wants what the heart wants and the heart wants it badly. Emotions run high and passion burns hot.
