The Duke's Detour. Rebel Lords of London, #6

How long can a man of structure ignore a hoyden who unleashes fires long suppressed he didn't know he possessed?Lady Rebecca Thatcher cares nothing for fashion or societal dictates. Her destiny in life is to fight for those less fortunate, be it woman, child, or animal. And when a young boy appears from the trees, clutching her skirts, addressing her as Mama with a vile villain on his heels, it incites every instinct in her to protect.
With all his siblings now married, the Duke of Ryleigh can finally begin the task of locating a suitable bride of his own. But his well-ordered plans are thrown into chaos. On his way south to settle a matter with his youngest sister, he encounters a carriage with a broken wheel carrying none other than his sister's long-ago schoolmate. She is just as he remembers-unwieldy and uncaring of what anyone thinks-and now? Unmarried with bastard children.
Certainly not duchess material. Praise for The Duke's Detour"Absolutely delightful! Prepare to be swept away to Regency England and fall in love." ~Author Winning Author, Valerie Bowman"The Duke's Detour is a wonderfully engaging romance. The plot is great but the characters-flawed yet sympathetic-are what really draws you in and makes the story unputdownable. With humor and passion and a couple of adorable little boys, this Regency Romance is a keeper." ~ Award Winning Author, Alicia Dean"The Duke's Detour is a page-turning romp that ends in a perfect happily-ever-after!" ~ Kara O'NealRead the entire series:Enchanting the Earl - A how they met prequelThe Earl's Error - Lorelei and Thorne - miscommunicationThe Marquis's Misstep - Ginny and Brock - second chance, redemptionThe 7th Son - Peyton and Alistar - enemies to loversThe Viscount's Vendetta - Maeve and Brandon - marriage of convenience, amnesiaThe Duke's Detour - Rebecca and Sebastian - on the road, forced proximityCaptivated by His Countess - Gabriella and James - reckless heroine, mystery & scandalBeguiled by the Baroness - Rose and Emerson - enemies to reluctant allies, class difference, slow burn
