The Duke’s Secret Bride by Hanna Hamilton

“You knew who I was all along?”
“I knew enough to marry you. The rest only made me want you more.”

Lady Verity Ashbourne is the anonymous author behind London’s most notorious scandal sheets. So when her brother suddenly arranges her marriage to the notorious Duke of Wycliffe, refusing is not an option. Because to protect her secret, and her family, she must become the duke’s wife.
Dominic Mercer must marry. Bound by the terms of his inheritance and trapped by secrets from a night best forgotten, marrying an Ashbourne is the simplest way to keep the past buried.
Yet the longer Dominic spends with his sharp-witted wife, the more impossible it becomes to keep his distance. Because protecting Verity was always part of the bargain.
Falling in love with her was not.
