She didn’t gamble on love. SHE HAS THE DEED. Camelia Parikh is a fallen woman trying to start over. When she wins the deed to a cottage in a card game, she believes her luck has finally changed. A charming coastal village seems like the perfect place to begin again, far from London and her romantic regrets. That is, until the stern Duke of Wednesbury arrives to claim the deed and cottage as his. HE HAS THE TITLE. Raaz Panchal, the new Duke of Wednesbury, is searching for the missing deed to his late father’s beloved cottage, and he travels to the countryside to investigate. But once there, he learns the home is not vacant, and a beguiling woman claims it’s her property now. When her deed proves genuine, Raaz prepares to leave, but then fate collapses the stable roof. Duty to his father’s memory–and certainly not a pair of alluring amber eyes–compels him to help. TOGETHER, CAN THEY HAVE IT ALL? Camelia cautiously accepts the duke’s assistance, but between a bold badger, a moonlit waltz, and dangerous late-night wagers, it’s impossible to keep her distance from the devastatingly handsome duke. When they surrender to temptation, she can no longer ignore their differences in station or the mistakes of her past, but her traitorous heart already wishes for a future that’s surely out of reach. THE DEED WITH THE DUKE is a steamy, lust-at-first-sight Regency romance with a grumpy Indian hero, a sunshine Indian heroine, and adorable animal antics.

Businessman Charles Burke had no hopes above a simple, comfortable life in Boston. The last things he ever expected would happen to him were (in no particular order):
Becoming guardian to a rotund black cat
Traveling to England after unexpectedly becoming the new Duke of Ryton
Being mistaken for a prostitute after arriving on the doorstep of the Earl of Darby
Falling for an intelligent, confident, curvaceous beauty with rose-gold hair
One night of passion is just the beginning.
