About this ebook

Is she desperate enough to marry a man she loathes? Sadly, yes…


He always has his way…

Stanford is aware of his nickname, The Dangerous Duke—and it suits him just fine. Inheriting a bankrupt dukedom and rebuilding it taught him just how useless niceties were. Except now, he’s ready to choose a duchess, and the only one he deems suitable (and enticing) enough despises him. Perhaps he should reconsider the value of niceties…


She’s a most reluctant bride…

Ophelia Breckensole knows what she wants, and it is not Stanford. But fate plays into his hand when she finds herself unwittingly compromised. Now, she must wed or face ruination—and Stanford is only too pleased to help. So, she’ll marry him, but she won’t love him. Or so she keeps telling herself…


But Stanford and Ophelia have much more to overcome on their path to happily ever after than his austere nature and her vow to never love her husband. Stanford’s enemies are determined to make him pay for his past, and they’re willing to use Ophelia to do it. Can this fragile union survive such an onslaught?

This 13th book in Ms. Cameron’s Seductive Scoundrels series is another charming addition to one of my favorite Regency series. It is a top-notch, pseudo enemies to lovers offering. The daggers drawn, two main characters, Ophelia Breckensole and Stanford Bancroft, Duke of Asherford, are such likable characters. Ophelia thinks Stan is the most insulting, arrogant, and cold-blooded peer she has ever met. She’s taken to hiding from him at assemblies since he keeps pressing his suit. It’s not that she is opposed to marriage, just not to him. Stan is not used to people saying no to him. He realizes he will have to woo this lady. The writing flows well as the author creates the yin and yang atmosphere between the couple. She blends in some action as well as some suspense as Ophelia and Stan travel their road to romance. I also liked her incorporating appearances by characters from previous works. As is true of several other works in this series, there is no sexual congress but innuendos. You’ll feel good, will like the characters, and bring a smile to your face if you read Loved by a Dangerous Duke. I was offered an ARC of this work and gladly rate it 4 – 4 ½ Stars. All opinions stated are my own.

Sassy and stubborn Ophelia claims to have a back of steel. However, when she is around Stanford aka the Dangerous Duke, she lifts her chin while her bones melt on her. Stanford is cocky in the beginning. But as Ophelia and Stanford get to know each other they find they have more in common than just lust. An excellent read. I highly recommend it. I received an Advanced Readers Copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. Reasons I enjoyed this book: Entertaining Funny Romantic Wonderful characters

Loved By A Dangerous Duke is book thirteen in the Seductive Scoundrels series. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I liked the tension between the main characters Stanford the Duke of Asherford, and Ophelia Breckensole. Both have appeared in previous books. This book can be read as a stand-alone, although I highly recommend the series. I enjoyed the romance and the way the characters evolved throughout the story.
