How to Become a Duchess

A string of stepfathers and a difficult childhood shaped Fletcher “Gray” Pride, the fifth Duke of Graycourt, into a distrustful, unbelievably rich lone rebel. Gray is so consumed with growing his fortune that he has no time to search for a wife. But one day he will meet a very unusual woman with whom, as it turns out, they share a great deal in common. Yet no matter how beautiful and charmingly sincere she may be, Gray isn’t interested in love… Beatrice Wolfe has long stopped hoping for a romance. And the arrogant Duke of Graycourt—with his reputation for being a rake—is even less appealing to her, so reluctantly she agrees to a “project” meant to bring joy to Gray’s mother, who has just lost her husband. But when Beatrice gets to know Gray better, it will be hard to keep him at a distance. Still, what if he learns the secrets of her family? Will she be able to choose between loyalty to her family and the man who seems to have won her heart?..
