The Duke that I Lost (Scoundrels with Secrets #1)
Annabelle Anders

She doesn’t expect the maddeningly confident—and disarmingly charming—Frenchman Mr. Bateman to derail her journey and turn it into an unexpected adventure. Nor does she anticipate his laughter, his warmth… or the sparks that fly between them.
But Bateman carries secrets of his own—and Ambrosia won’t realize just how big they are until it may be too late.
A shorter version of this story was first published as Cocky Duke in 2020, as part of the Cocky Hero Shared World. The The Duke that I Lost , however, includes enhanced material and significant changes, and is Book One in Annabelle Anders’ newest Regency series, Scoundrels with Secrets—about six troubled men, bound by one tragic mistake... and the women who just might redeem them.
