How Not to Be Seduced by Dukes

At 34 years old, Rathe Wellesley, a powerful and gorgeous billionaire nobleman, has his life all planned out – or so he thinks until he meets Mary, a lovely but socially awkward genius who is nothing like his future duchess should be. Raised by a crazed and oppressive stepfather, 18-year-old Mary Ashton finds herself swept off her feet by the duke and tossed out of her home for daring to kiss a man before marriage. By choosing to be with Rathe, Mary's life is completely transformed, leading an ordinary life as a college student during the day…and living the glamorous and passionate life as the duke's mistress at night. It's not the life she's dreamt of but the look in Rathe's eyes keeps Mary from leaving. It's a look that tells her maybe, just maybe he could fall in love with her, too.
