# How the Duke Was Won by Lenora Bell (Paperback)

_'A debut that reads like an instant classic. Message to my readers: You'll love Lenora Bell!_' **Eloisa James**, _New York Times_ bestselling author  
**  
The pleasure of your company is requested at Warbury Park. Four lovely ladies will arrive . . . but only one can become a duchess.**  
  
James, the scandalously uncivilized Duke of Harland, requires a bride with a spotless reputation for a strictly business arrangement. Lust is prohibited and love is out of the question.  
  
Four ladies. Three days. What could go wrong?  
  
**_She is not like the others . . ._**  
  
Charlene Beckett, the unacknowledged daughter of an earl and a courtesan, has just been offered a life-altering fortune to pose as her half-sister, Lady Dorothea, and win the duke's proposal. All she must do is:  
  
\* Be the perfect English rose _(Ha!)_  
\* Breathe, smile, and curtsy in impossibly tight gowns (_blast Lady Dorothea's sylph-like figure_)  
\* Charm and seduce a wild duke (_without appearing to try_)  
\* Keep said duke far, far from her heart (_no matter how tempting_)  
  
When secrets are revealed and passion overwhelms, James must decide if the last lady he should want is really everything he needs. And Charlene must decide if the promise of a new life is worth risking everything . . . including her heart.
