  `I am a Duke. I'm not asking you to marry me. I am offering to marry you. It's a different thing entirely.'

  When the Duke of Ashbury returns from war scarred, he realises he needs an heir - which means he needs a wife! When Emma Gladstone, a vicar's daughter turned seamstress visits wearing a wedding dress, he decides on the spot that she'll do.

  His terms are simple:
  - They will be husband and wife by night only.
  - No lights, no kissing.
  - No questions about his battle scars.
  - Last, and most importantly... Once she's pregnant with his heir, they need never share a bed again.

  But Emma is no pushover. She has secrets and some rules of her own:
  - They will have dinner together every evening.
  - With conversation.
  - And teasing.
  - Last, and most importantly... Once she's seen the man beneath the scars, he can't stop her from falling in love...
