What to expect
One minute, London banker Quinn Wentworth is facing execution. The next, he's declared the long-lost heir to a dukedom. Quinn has fought his way up from the worst slums, and now he's ready to use every dirty trick he knows to find the enemy who schemed against him.
Jane Winston, widowed and pregnant, crosses paths with Quinn while her father is preaching to the prisoners. Believing his days are numbered, Quinn offers her marriage as a way to guarantee her independence and provide for her child. Neither thinks they'll actually have a future together.
He's a wealthy gutter rat out for vengeance. She's a minister's daughter who must turn a marriage of desperation into a proper ducal union. Are they doomed from the start or destined for a happily-ever-after?
Also includes the bonus novella Once Upon a Christmas Eve from New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Hoyt!
When his carriage wheel snaps in a snowstorm, Adam Rutledge, Viscount d'Arque, is forced to seek shelter at the home of the most maddening, infuriating, and utterly beguiling woman he's ever met.

"I loved this book. Burrowes writes with such expressive precision to tell a story of such complex emotions, a detailed network of plot threads and characters whose motivations are as complicated as they are heartfelt...This is a story that spans the gamut of human emotion... Burrowes is a writer of towering talent...The lens with which I will view historical romance has been forever changed."—USA Today Happy Ever After
-
"An extremely touching love story, and its finely calibrated shifts in tone are possible because of the author's exhaustive knowledge of the period. Burrowes has spent her career rejecting the rosy, musty myths of the Regency, and My One and Only Duke is her most vivid, compelling portrait of the era yet."—BookPage, "Best Books of 2018"
