The Duke's Obsession (Entangled Scandalous) - Plot & Excerpts
England owned more colonies than any other nation, and despite American naval successes against the crown, Britain’s navy was unmatched in both size and skill. No larger fleet patrolled the world’s oceans. And as her family had to cross those same oceans to maintain their quality of life, it was essential they secured British allies—especially wealthy and bored dukes with unlimited funds. That fact was why, four days after the duke’s presumptuous request, she grudgingly sat at the duke’s table, in his banquet hall, eating dinner in the midst of not one, but three fireplaces tall enough for a grown man to stand inside. It was why her brother had not stopped smiling since he received news of their invitation, despite Daphne’s reminder that they were toadying to a man related to the king, whose directives had resulted in the death of their brother, Samuel. And it was also why her aunt had fussed, preened, and primped Daphne to new levels of feminine ornamentation in preparation for this visit.
