Serie Spindle Cove
04. Any Duchess Will Do (por publicar en Español)
Synopsis:
What’s a duke to do, when the girl who’s perfectly wrong becomes the woman he can’t live without?
Griffin York, the Duke of Halford, has no desire to wed this season--or any season--but his diabolical mother abducts him to “Spinster Cove” and insists he select a bride from the ladies in residence. Griff decides to teach her a lesson that will end the marriage debate forever. He chooses the serving girl.
Overworked and struggling, Pauline Simms doesn’t dream about dukes. All she wants is to hang up her barmaid apron and open a bookshop. That dream becomes a possibility when an arrogant, sinfully attractive duke offers her a small fortune for a week’s employment. Her duties are simple: submit to his mother’s “duchess training"...and fail miserably.
But in London, Pauline isn’t a miserable failure. She’s a brave, quick-witted, beguiling failure--a woman who ignites Griff’s desire and soothes the darkness in his soul. Keeping Pauline by his side won’t be easy. Even if Society could accept a serving girl duchess--can a roguish duke convince a serving girl to trust him with her heart?

Sinopsis:
¿Qué debe hacer un duque cuando la chica que perfectamente incorrecta se convierte en la mujer que sin ella él no puede vivir?
Griffin York, el Duque de Halford, no desea casarse en esta temporada--o en ninguna-- pero su diabólica madre lo rapta y lo lleva a "Spindle Cove" y le insiste a que seleccione un novia de las damas en residencia. Griff decide enseñarle un lección que terminará el debate acerca del matrimonio para siempre. Él escoge a la sirvienta.
Con exceso de trabajo y luchando, Pauline Simms no sueña con duques. Todo lo que ella desea es colgar su delantal de camarera y abrir una librería. Ese sueño se ha vuelto una posibilidad cuando un arrogante, pecaminosamente atractivo duque le ofrece una pequeña fortuna por un empleo de una semana. Sus deberes son simples: someterse al "entrenamiento de duquesa" de su madre... y fallar miserablemente.
Pero en Londres Pauline no es un fracaso miserable. Ella es valiente, perspicaz y un seductor fracaso--una mujer que enciende el deseo en Griff y calma la oscuridad en su alma. Manteniendo a Pauline a su lado no será fácil. Incluso si la Sociedad la aceptara a una sirvienta como duquesa---¿puede un duque pícaro convencer a una sirvienta a que confíe en él con el corazón?
