Scandal in the Waltz
London, 1814. Bridget Fitzgerald may be the diamond of the season, but she’d rather be anywhere than parading about like a prized peahen. Elegant and sharp-tongued, she has no patience for the pompous duke who thinks she’ll fawn over him like the rest of the ton.
Barnard Whitting, Duke of Egerton, is handsome, wealthy, and utterly bored. Until Bridget cuts him down with a single dry remark, and leaves him stunned, amused, and infuriatingly intrigued.
She has no intention of being caught. He has no intention of letting her go. From whispered barbs at midnight soirees to stolen glances in Hyde Park, their attraction becomes impossible to ignore. But when a scandalous kiss and a very public slap spark whispers across the ton, the only way forward might be a marriage neither of them wanted, until now.
