How to Become a Lady (London Ladies #1)
Hannah West
Derek Ashford, the eighteenth Duke of Montrose, was a distinguished lord of the realm and was well known for being a paragon of society. He was as strait-laced and austere as a duke should be and held his duties above all else. And that 'else' included his impending duty of marriage. Derek would need to find a lady who came from good breeding, a sizeable dowry and the manner suited to a duchess this Season. The last thing he needed was a scandal like the one his parents had created.
The first time Emma walked into a ball she experienced something she never would have expected and could not imagine this would be the new world in which she lived.
The first lady to capture Derek's eye brushed him off and his interest was sparked. She seemed nothing like any other lady he had encountered in his years roaming the London Seasons and she sparked something in him he didn't even know he could feel.
Could Emma be his future Duchess or would she be the one to get away?
