The Duke of Bramwell Needed an Heir Within the Year — So He Married the Woman No One Else Would Have

A cold and guarded Duke, bound by his late grandfather's will to wed and secure his line within a single year or forfeit his estate to a grasping branch of the family, chooses in his desperation the one overlooked and portionless woman no one else would ever have. She comes to his great house expecting only a bargain and her dignity, and asks nothing of his heart. But across the turning of one year, against every cold intention, a marriage of pure convenience begins to thaw into the truest and most treasured love either of them has ever known. #periodromance #regencyromance #historicalromance #dukeromance #marriageofconvenience #cleanromance #sweetromance #cleanhistoricalromance #regencyera #victorianromance #arrangedmarriage #enemiestolovers #slowburnromance #forcedproximity #wholesomeromance #romancestory #romanceaudiobook #lovestory #costumedrama #aristocracy #nobility #broodinghero #ontheshelfheroine #secondchanceatlove #truelove #familyestate #inheritance #willandtestament #thawingheart #storytime #audiostory #longstory #romancereads #cozyromance #happilyeverafter period romance, regency romance, historical romance, duke romance, marriage of convenience, arranged marriage, clean romance, sweet romance, wholesome romance, slow burn, brooding duke, guarded hero, overlooked heroine, on the shelf, poor heroine, inheritance plot, grandfather's will, secure an heir, forfeit the estate, scheming relatives, cousin villain, humbled villains, great estate, aristocracy, nobility, english countryside, victorian romance, regency era, love story, true love, second chance, thawing heart, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, happily ever after, romance audiobook, bedtime story, story for women, cozy story, treasured ending
