Synopsis

Travel to the Regency era with a New York Times bestselling author's novel of "irresistible romance," in which a woman looking to recover a stolen painting accidentally kidnaps a duke instead (Eloisa James).

Chloe Wynchester is completely forgettable—a curse that gives her the ability to blend into any crowd. When the only father she's ever known makes a dying wish for his adopted family of orphans to recover a missing painting, she's the first one her siblings turn to for stealing it back. No one expects that in doing so, she'll also abduct a handsome duke.

Lawrence Gosling, the Duke of Faircliffe, is tortured by his father's mistakes. To repair his estate's ruined reputation, he must wed a highborn heiress. Yet when he finds himself in a carriage being driven hell-for-leather down the cobblestone streets of London by a beautiful woman who refuses to heed his commands, he fears his heart is hers. But how can he sacrifice his family's legacy to follow true love?

"Erica Ridley is a delight!" —Julia Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of the Bridgerton series

Goodreads review by Jacob on July 19, 2021

I was really enjoying this. It's a completely unrealistic romp in a Regency setting with a delightful family of orphans who were taken care of by a beloved (now dead) baron. They have lots of fun skills and work together to do things; mostly clandestine things. So there's some awesome competence por......more

3.75 – 4 stars! What a delightful little book! The Duke Heist is the story of forgettable Chloe Wynchester, she has a face that is not easily remembered and it allows her to sneak in and out of social situations as she pleases. Chloe and her other siblings are mostly all adopted orphans, and when a......more
