A Scandalous Duke And A Beautiful Cursed Witch
A Romance For The Ages
Lust and eagerness sear red hot in the pages of this timeless romance, pitting the need for true abiding love against social differences and boundaries.
Amidst a land of rolling hills and picturesque farms, common people scratch out a living shadowed by an aristocracy, fixed on expanding their holdings and wealth. It is a time of lustful ladies and scandalous men, uniting to fulfill family obligations and not for love. Women are bound to lifelong vows of marriage, hoping for a modicum of affection, while living days of servitude. This is not what Arianna Borges envisioned for herself. From the time she was a small girl, reared in a home with parents who adored one another, her magical gifts were immature, but powerful. A young witch, faced with the possibility of marrying for anything less than love, has few choices. For Arianna, the decision was obvious...a spell, a curse pronounced at a young age to prevent suitors from seeking her hand without the truest of intensions.
Imagine A Time...
Spoken at an age and time when love seemed sure, Arianna regrets the bewitching, as months turn to years and a relationship seems impossible. However, from wisps of doubt and obscurity a scoundrel emerges, instilling a yearning within the beautiful witch that sparks hope and desire. He is a duke, a man of status and name and she is "nothing'", a common woman with a past. Their romance is electrifyingly passionate, pushing the limits of propriety, while forging a relationship bent on a lasting union.
