DUKE'S ESTATE #2

From bestselling author Jane Ashford comes another brand new five-book series of sparkling Regency Romance!

The duke finds this house inhabited by Susan Farleigh, 24, a distant cousin and an aristocratic squatter. She has been managing the property, rather well in fact. Embarrassed by being “on the shelf” she has made up a story of undying love for an absent neighbor. He is Gregory Wilkes, 26, who has been somewhat fecklessly traveling the world--a romantic character who doesn't exist.
Gregory arrives home soon after and when he discovers Susan's story, he's appalled. He confronts her, rails at her for having put him in a false position. If he denies it, everyone will think him a total cad. Susan can't tell the truth without looking like a complete idiot and a liar.
When they are forced together by their odd circumstances, Susan and Gregory gradually fall in love. In a sense, Susan creates the ideal man she has imagined in her stories through her interactions with him. Yet she is also re-created in the process, learning that love is far more than romantic stories.
