About the book
To win her husband's love she masqueraded as a lady he did no know! The Duke of Westhampton had a wife in the country ? and a mistress in town. This suited the Duke of Westhampton, but his young wife, whom he'd wed and tucked away on his estate with scarcely a second glance was not pleased. So, being as audacious as she was innocent, she undertook to win his attention, to charm and undo him, in the world of the Regency haut ton, where he was very well known - and she was not.
