About The Duke's Midnight Ride

Edgar Hunton Smythe, Duke of Lovell, has spent six seasons sidestepping the marital trap with a carefully curated air of gruff detachment, general roguishness... and one humiliating secret. Though society whispers refer to him as a stallion in more ways than one, Edgar has never once been able to make those whispers a reality. His solution? Enlist his dearest friend, Giselle, as a faux mistress to preserve his reputation and buy time. But when Giselle offhandedly suggests his desires might lie not with women—but with his golden-haired, ever-watchful valet—Edgar begins to wonder… Liam has secrets. Far too many for a valet. Chief among them: he's been hopelessly in love with the Duke since the moment they met. And just as dangerous: his former lover, a wanted man living under an alias, now serves as the Duke's groom. When Edgar returns home with a mistress on his arm, Liam's heart shatters. But when one raw, revealing moment gives him away, Liam panics—convinced he's ruined everything—and begs his old flame to help him disappear before scandal, or worse, catches up. But when Liam arrives at the carriage ready to flee, he's stunned to find Edgar waiting—nervous, uncertain… but hopeful. Perhaps a dark, overnight carriage ride is all the Duke needs to dip his toes into desire for the very first time. But Liam's old flame already has plans in motion—and what awaits them in the woods is wicked, wild, and anything but innocent. The Duke can either turn back… or dive in headfirst. The Duke's Midnight Ride is a spicy, queer regency romance novella brimming with forbidden touches, stolen glances, a night that changes everything—and a satisfying happily ever after.
