A Duke for the Defiant Lady: A Historical Regency Romance Novel by Bridget Barton
Lady Charlotte Hamilton has no interest in marriage, much to the surprise of society. Being an independent daughter of a wealthy industrialist, she enjoys a life free from the pressures of the ton. When she reluctantly agrees to an invitation for a house party by the mysterious Duke of Hartford, little did she know it would greatly challenge her disinterest in love...

Edward Cavendish, Duke of Hartford, never expected to inherit his title or his family's vast estate. Faced with mounting debt, he agrees to a house party set up by his mother to find a bride, even though he has no desire for a marriage of convenience. When the sharp-witted Lady Charlotte arrives, he finds himself at odds with her— but also intrigued in ways he would never anticipate…

As the days pass, Charlotte and Edward's playful rivalry slowly transforms into a deep and genuine connection. However, the presence of a woman from Edward’s past threatens to complicate matters, forcing them to confront feelings they have long denied. In a game of hearts where pride and affection both run deep, will love find a way, or will the past hold them back forever?
