A Widow for the Beastly Duke by Daphne Byrne

“I’m the one in charge, little kitten. And you’ll find that out, whether you like it or not.”

Widowed Lady Emma is at her wits’ end with her spirited son. And the last thing she needs is him sneaking into the Beast of Westmere’s estate.
Scarred by war and grief, Duke Victor doesn’t take visitors. Especially not meddling boys. Until he meets the boy’s alluring mother…
When the boy keeps returning, Victor reluctantly offers to mentor him. But every lesson pulls him closer to Emma. And after one forbidden kiss… She stepped into the beast’s lair—and now he’s starving for more than just a taste…

*If you like a realistic yet steamy depiction of the Regency and Victorian era, then A Widow for the Beastly Duke is the novel for you.
