I truly loved this story! I am so excited to see how the rest of the series unfolds with all of the sisters and cousins our hero has! Great love story with strong characters who will be fun to see how they wrangle the girls in the future books!
In The Duke’s Unexpected Love, Alexa Aston introduces us to a captivating couple whose paths intersect in the most unexpected way. Set against the backdrop of Regency England, this novel weaves together love, secrets, and destiny.
James Jones, a former cabin boy turned ship captain, discovers he is the heir to the dying Duke of Seaton. His return home leads him to Sophie Grant, a shy woman who was given in marriage to Josiah Grant, owner of a prominent shipping line. Sophie’s life takes an unexpected turn as she gains confidence in herself while learning to manage Josiah’s empire.
But fate has other plans. James, drawn to the independent Sophie, rebels against societal norms. Can a newly-minted duke win the heart of a woman who spurns convention and has built a life on her terms?
Alexa Aston’s prose sparkles, evoking the magic of masquerade balls and clandestine meetings. The chemistry between James and Sophie sizzles, their stolen moments filled with passion and tenderness.
A Duke’s Unexpected Love is a delightful gem—a reminder that love knows no bounds.
