The third book in the New York Times bestselling Desperate Duchesses series, perfect for fans of Julia Quinn’s Bridgertons and Eloisa’s Wildes of Lindow Castle
‘Choc-full of romantic heroes romantic heroes that would give Darcy a run for his money.’ Carole Matthews
Disguise is a dangerous game . . .
After a lifetime as a wallflower Harriet, the Duchess of Berrow, is finally seeking a little pleasure of her own. And where better to begin than at the house of one of the most disreputable men in the country, Lord Strange?
The high-stakes games of lust and chance that rule Strange’s household, however, mean that even being seen crossing his threshold could ruin her reputation forever. So Harriet swaps her hoops and corsets for a pair of breeches and transforms herself into a young male relative of the Duke of Villiers.
Before she knows it, Harriet is writing bawdy missives on behalf of a young actress, not to mention winning card games played by the most powerful men in England.
But when she starts attracting male attention, Harriet must decide whether to stay in her disguise – or to reveal that she’s really a duchess by night . . .

A cheeky and evocative romp through the lives of the eighteenth century A-listers. Good characters and authentic settings...will have you laughing and cheering in equal measures
'Entertaining and exciting throughout [with] enough seduction, laughter and surprises . . . to satisfy even the most demanding fans of historical fiction.'
It's charming, cheeky, funny and sexy and I know I'll re-read it in the future. And of course I'll definitely be reading more of Eloisa James's books. Highly recommended (even if you don't think it looks like your kind of thing!)
An evocative tale of love and life'
'Sheer joy from beginning to end.'
'More posh totty from the 18th century behaving disgracefully'.
It's guaranteed to get me hot under the collar . . . Bravo for Eloisa
