The Duke Who Loved Me by Jennifer Monroe

A river divides their properties…bloodlines separate their hearts.
Anna Silverstone dreams of escaping her life of burlap dress and calloused fingers-brought about by hard labor at a workhouse. Though her father is rumored to be an earl, her lineage has never been proven. With her brother wishing to sell her hand to any willing merchant, the prospect of love is beyond her reach. That is until fate intervenes and she meets Colin. Not only is he sinfully handsome, but he is also a duke, and she wants nothing more than to be with him.

If she can only prove her bloodline, they will have a chance to be together…
Colin, 9th Duke of Greystoke, heads England’s wealthiest and most powerful family-the Remingtons. With all life’s luxuries at his fingertips, Colin should want for nothing, but his heart yearns for the impossible – a woman who loves him for who he is, not what he owns.
When Miss Anna Silverstone crosses his path, Colin begins to wonder if she might be the woman he has dreamed of. Beautiful, bold, and unafraid to speak her mind, she sees him as a man, not a title…

But can he look past her humble origins?
As Anna seeks to confirm her lineage, Colin wonders if he can balance the responsibilities of the dukedom with the man he truly is. But for this rag-to-riches romance to have a chance, each will have to fight for the happily ever after they both deserve.
