The Duke with No Smile (The Unobtainables Book 1)

Amused by her aunt’s notion that all young ladies need a husband, the fiercely independent and wealthy MISS VIVIEN FOX, knew better than to argue.

In London only two days, Vivien was already finding the confining conventions of high society tedious. Back home on her estate in Yorkshire there was always something to occupy her time, though here, in London, the only order of the day seemed to involve sipping tea and gossiping over dainty cakes. Bracing herself for several monotonous weeks of boredom she had no idea of the adventure her, seemingly unassuming, life was about to take.

LORD SEBASTIAN HUMBER – touted as the most handsome man in the kingdom – is instantly charmed and amused by the beautiful, outspoken, Miss Fox and readily agrees to play along in her game of Marriage Mart Bluff.

The notorious DUKE OF BLACKMOOR, is intrigued and determined to find out more about this unknown vixen from Yorkshire, whose name has become synonymous with, ‘The Lobster Puff Affair’.

Two confirmed bachelors, one independent young lady and a house party in the country.

Who will be kidnapped, who will be shot, and who, at the end of the day, will win the heart and hand of the unconventional, quirky, Miss Vivien Fox?

The first in THE UNOBTAINABLES series, THE DUKE WITH NO SMILE is a fast-paced Historical Regency Romance with a sprinkle of sizzle: a few baddies to hate, more than one adorable hero to love, a mystery to untangle, and of course, a happy ending for our headstrong, unconventional heroine.
