Love’s Medicine for the Brooding Duke: A Historical Regency Romance Novel

Secretly running a business with her aunt and a widowed Indian herbalist, Lady Serena Vale dreams of a life defined by purpose rather than matrimony. When her father issues an ultimatum for her to marry, though, a fake courtship with the very man she despises seems her only way out. Can Serena resist falling into a love trap of her own device?

Emanuel Harrington, the enigmatic Duke of Ravensmere, is infuriatingly proper and extremely handsome. Left to care for his younger sisters, upon his parents’ death, he strives hard to avoid trouble, but trouble follows him. That is, until a public clash with an unconventional lady ignites a fire he can no longer ignore…

As scandal threatens both their families, Serena and Emanuel are entangled in a high-stakes situation of deception, attraction, and reluctant trust. With ruthless suitors, unscrupulous relatives, and London Society eager to see them fail, Serena and the Duke must take a chance at a love that could either destroy them or set them free…
