Kissing With My Duke: A Sweet and Lighthearted Regency Romance
Anna St. Claire
She guards her heart… but fate might have other plans.
Miss Serafina Davies has kept her distance from Society and the marriage mart ever since a youthful mistake nearly ruined her two years ago. Instead, she poured her passion into creating The Lavender & Cream Tearoom—a tearoom unlike any other in fashionable Bath. With her signature honeyed tea, floral confections, delicate pastries—and the support of her guardian and his wife—the business seemed destined to thrive. But when a chance encounter in front of an overflowing ash pit leads to Serafina rescuing a dog and a handsome stranger rescuing her, she finds herself dangerously close to breaking her most sacred promise—to never fall in love again.
He arrives incognito… but the truth cannot stay hidden forever.
Julian McAllister, the newly minted Duke of Strathmoor, arrives in Bath incognito—to grieve, to paint, and to escape the demands of his dukedom in search of much-needed rest. Disguised as a humble artist, he’s drawn to Serafina’s beauty, wit, and the quiet strength that shines behind her flour-dusted smile. With every encounter and every shared cup of tea, their connection deepens—but the more he’s near her, the harder it becomes to hide his identity. And when Serafina’s past catches up with her, Julian must decide if he’s willing to risk everything—including his heart—for love.
Because someone else wants Serafina.
Baron Cornelius Grimsby’s interest is unwanted—and unrelenting. He does not court; he lurks in the shadows, always watching, always nearby. With each encounter, his fixation hardens into something far more sinister. What begins as an irritating nuisance becomes a calculated, escalating threat—one that may cost Serafina her freedom—and Julian his life.
Tea may soothe the soul… but love, courage, and one daring duke may be the only things that can save her.
