Synopsis

A duchess in time saves a noble line …In theory, the Duke of Candover is the most eligible peer in the realm. But in truth, he has a deep aversion to the merest hint of marriage, not to mention two botched engagements which have marked his jaded soul. Now, after a debauched bachelor party that causes public outcry, the Prince Regent is demanding that it's Candover's turn to be brought to heel. And Prinny secretly believes that Isabelle Tremont, the Duchess of March, is precisely the lady up to the challenge.Isabelle must marry, but a day of reckoning with the man she's loved for years is her greatest fear. If Candover insists she's too young and innocent for a seasoned world-weary man like him, there's no shortage of other candidates. Gentlemen of prestige and position. Gentlemen whose attentions are driving Candover to jealous distraction. Yet one abandoned moment under the stars hints that if they can put aside pride and duty, then a love once denied might just be their destiny.

Goodreads review by Miranda on July 10, 2015

This was a fun read, part of series involving a boatload of dukes, and one duchess (featured here). The plotline reminds me of G. Heyer's Bath Tangle with three couples mismatched but able to sort themselves out to be with their true loves in the end. Here, the obstacles arise from promises made, fee......more

Goodreads review by Farrah on June 05, 2014

An enjoyable, sweet romance, The Once and Future Duchess was a lovely read. It wasn't perfect, but it was a good read and I liked it. Isabelle was a wonderful heroine. She was strong and independent and not afraid to go after what she wanted. And, she wasn't going to let anyone try to rule her, even......more
