Crash Landing on the Duke: A Regency Historical Romance (The Silver Dukes #6)

Sometimes love crashes down on you.

Trajan Aubrey, Duke of Weymouth, never expected a simple walk along his seacoast estate on a pleasant summer morning to turn into a debacle. But he should have known there would be trouble when beautiful bluestocking, Florence Newton, fell out of a tree and crash landed atop him. They were suddenly chased and shot at because Florence had been spying on a dangerous and powerful man. What choice did Trajan have but to protect her? This meant giving her a scorching kiss and a fake marriage proposal, in effect creating an alibi to make it appear she had been with him and not up a tree spying. There was also the matter of sensitive love letters she had been hired to retrieve from this dangerous man and return to their rightful owner. Had Trajan any sense, he would have walked away and refused to help her. But how could he walk away from Florence when she was the woman he loved?

Lady Florence Newton knew she had taken on more than she could handle, and expected to die until suddenly rescued by Trajan Aubrey, Duke of Weymouth, the man she had secretly loved since meeting him last year at a summer house party. He was a Silver Duke, magnificent and handsome, and desired by all women. How could she possibly be special to him? She hadn’t mean to fall atop him...if only that tree branch hadn’t cracked just as he walked under it. Nor had she expected his scorching kisses, or his marriage proposal. Fake proposal, of course. And now he was offering his help in completing her impossibly dangerous assignment. Any sane man would have run away and never looked back. But he stood by her, protected her, and even got shot for her. Was it possible he loved her?
