THE DUKE'S DESIRE
Simon Hawkins, duke of Trent, is no stranger to scandal. Rumors and innuendo have darkened the House of Trent for decades, and it has fallen to Simon to restore his tattered family name. He lives by a strict code of honor, but when he is called home to investigate his mother's disappearance, the distinguished duke will tangle with temptation. For there waits the only woman he has ever loved-and the last woman he should desire . . .
Sarah Osborne has spent her life dreaming of Simon's touch. But dukes do not long for lady's maids-or so Sarah believes, until a stolen kiss sparks a passion that could be her ultimate undoing. As the couple begins a forbidden romance, a cunning enemy plots to destroy the duke and everything he loves. Now, caught in a blackmailer's web, Simon faces an agonizing choice: sacrifice his family's future or break Sarah's heart.

In Haymore’s (Secrets of an Accidental Duchess, 2012) latest, Sarah, the gardener’s daughter, is treated like family on the Duke of Trent’s estate. So when the duchess goes missing, Sarah is elevated from housemaid to daughter Esme’s companion while the four sons search for their mother. After hiring a detective, heir Simon, Esme, and Sarah head to London for the season, where Simon will seek a wife, even though he loves Sarah in spite of her social status. At the head of the pack of debutantes is Simon’s neighbor Georgina, and her family is pushing for the match. But Simon is torn between marrying someone of his own class or someone who holds his heart. Meanwhile, all avenues to discovering who kidnapped the Duchess of Trent and whether she is alive or dead seem blocked. As the hunt unfolds, Haymore touches on the themes of dynastic marriage, public scandal, and the obligations of an heir to his widowed mother and siblings. --Pat Henshaw
