Her Sister Stole Her Betrothed — Then a Feared Duke Objected at the Wedding

Elspeth Danver was engaged for two years - until her beautiful younger sister took her betrothed, and her own family decided she should be grateful about it. They even made her stand at the wedding and carry her sister's flowers. But at the back of the church sat the feared Duke of Kirkwald, a folder of papers on the pew beside him, and when the parson asked whether any man knew just cause, he rose to his feet. #periodromance #historicalromance #duke #regency #romance #lovestory #cleanromance #regencyromance #victorianromance #historicalfiction #dukeofkirkwald #jilted #betrayed #sisterrivalry #wedding #weddingobjection #justcause #altarscene #brokenengagement #brokenpromise #forbiddenlove #slowburn #cinderellastory #audiostory #storytime #romancestory #englishromance #aristocracy #nobility #scarredduke #truelove #devotion #humbled #happilyeverafter #emotionalstory period romance, historical romance, regency romance, victorian romance, duke romance, duke story, the dukes choice, clean romance, wholesome romance, love story, romance audiobook, romance story, story time, jilted bride, sister steals fiance, betrayed by sister, betrothal broken, broken engagement, wedding objection, i object, speak now, altar scene, scarred duke, feared duke, brooding duke, english aristocracy, nobility, slow burn romance, forbidden love, cinderella story, poor girl rich duke, betrayal and redemption, humbled family, happy ending, devotion, longing, true love, historical fiction, emotional story, storytelling
