{"product_id":"always-be-my-duchess","title":"Always Be My Duchess","description":"Pretty Woman meets the Bridgertons in this witty, vivacious historical take on 90s romcoms by USA Today bestselling author Amalie Howard:   \"Refreshing, steamy, and stocked with characters you don't normally get to see in the genre-a must-read author\" -Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author  Lord Lysander Blackstone, the stern Duke of Montcroix, has only one interest: increasing his considerable fortune. After a series of betrayals, he keeps his emotions buried deep. Money, after all, can't break a man's heart-or make promises it can't keep. But when his reputation for being heartless jeopardizes a new business deal, he finds himself seeking a most unusual-and alluring-solution . . .   Once an up-and-coming ballerina, Miss Genevi�ve Valery is now hopelessly out of work. After refusing to become a wealthy patron's mistress, N�ve was promptly shown the door to the streets. When she accidentally saves the life of a handsome duke, she doubts the encounter will go any better than her last brush with nobility. But instead of propositioning her, Montcroix makes N�ve an offer she would be a fool to refuse: act as his fake fianc�e in exchange for fortune enough to start over.  Only neither is prepared when very real feelings begin to grow between them. They both stand to win . . . but only if they're willing to risk their hearts.","brand":"Little, Brown \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40586072391765,"sku":"9781538737712N","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/products\/19bdbb8f-6bac-47ed-998d-0e72a36123e8.jpg?v=1681906147","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/always-be-my-duchess","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
