Adam: The Duke (Her Fantasy #3)

The instant Sarah Scott steps into the fancy ballroom in the heart of London, one full of people dressed in Regency costumes, she knows every penny she saved to attend the once-a-year event was worth it. Especially when a tall, masked man greets her at the bottom of the stairs, saying he’s been assigned as her date for the evening. Even though she can’t see more than his eyes and lips, the heat in his gaze and the possessive grip in his touch makes her stomach flip andher insides melt. Too bad the man is only acting and pretending to be hers for a few hours. But Sarah is determined to make every second count with the mystery man.

Adam Cross, the tenth Duke of Kesthaven, is one of the many titled gentlemen who don masks for a night and pretend to be a normal man, in complete anonymity, with women who have no idea of who they are. No cameras, no phones, no press. Just a safe space to dance, flirt, and play their roles for all the ladies who’ve paid to attend. There are rules set out for the event, which weren’t a problem until he lands his gaze on his date for the evening. One look at Sarah and the hint of a tattoo showing at the neckline of her dress, and Adam wants to do more than dance with her for an evening. He wants to dance with her for the rest of his life.

His challenge is convincing Sarah that he’s not acting. And once his mask comes off andhe reveals his identity, he hopes she won’t run away from all the responsibility and attention she’ll receive once she becomes his duchess. And yes, she will be his duchess. Of that, Adam is certain.
