Bound to the Cruel Duke by Olivia T. Bennet

“You test my patience as if it has no end, wife. Shall I show you exactly where it breaks?”

Arabella has no intention of marrying before her older sister. Until the cruel duke comes with a contract, allowing him to claim any woman from her family. And he chooses wrong… he wants her.
Duke Gerald always takes what he’s owed—even a bride of convenience. Yet sweet Arabella is determined to make him reject her. So he decides to unravel her defiance the only way he knows how… slowly.
Now there is only one way for Arabella to be free of her new husband: spend three nights with him. But when his lips find her body, she realizes there is no escaping a man like Gerald. Only surrender…

*If you like a realistic yet steamy depiction of the Regency and Victorian era, then Bound to the Cruel Duke is the novel for you.
