"Mad about the Duke is a rollicking good romp, filled with mischief and mayhem and delicious characters." -Sabrina Jeffries Rita Award-winner, USA Today and New York Times bestseller Elizabeth Boyle delights once more with Mad About the Duke, the second book in her wonderfully creative, wickedly fun Widows of Standon historical romance series. It is a delectable tale of an intrepid young woman who employs an incognito duke-whom she mistakenly believes to be a common solicitor-in her quest to land a titled second husband. Featuring characters from her popular Bachelor Chronicles, Boyle proves once again to be one of today's most imaginative writers of romantic fiction. Fans of the sensual, fast-paced historical romance of Lisa Kleypas and Christina Dodd will, likewise, be Mad About the Duke.
"Delightful! A dynamic storyteller with tremendous heart and a wicked sense of humor." -- Gaelen Foley "Lively, delicious fun, Mad About the Duke sparkles with matchmaking, machinations, and mistaken identities. Elizabeth Boyle has a delightful flair for Regency wit and humor." -- Nicole Jordan "Mad about the Duke is a rollicking good romp, filled with mischief and mayhem and delicious characters. Elizabeth Boyle will keep you laughing long after you close the book!" -- Sabrina Jeffries "All of RITA award-winning Boyle's signature literary elements-deliciously acerbic writing, splendidly original characters, and sinfully sexy chemistry-blend brilliantly together." -- Booklist (starred review) on How I Met My Countess
