title: My Fair Duchess: A Dukes Behaving Badly Novel
author:  Megan Frampton 
description: Ms. Frampton brings humorous charm and seasoned class to a scenario done many times. My Fair Duchess is a twist on an old gem that develops a life of its own...what ensues is ultimate chaos with irresistible heart. Another classic in the making. (Night Owl Reviews)<br /><br />Frampton bases her novel on an actual law that allowed a woman to inherit a dukedom. And the My Fair Lady premise allows this talented writer to craft a delightful, sometimes humorous, sometimes highly poignant and always powerful romance. (RT Book Reviews)<br /><br />My Fair Duchess, Framptons marvelously clever riff on Pygmalion and the latest in her Dukes Behaving Badly series, following Why do Dukes Fall in Love (2016), is another captivating symphony of scintillating wit and sophisticated sensuality brilliantly conducted by an author writing at the top of her game.

  England, 1817. Miss Adeline Hays is out of options. Determined to escape
  marriage to a repugnant earl, Adel plans to deliberately allow herself to be
  caught in a compromising position at a house party with the much kinder man
  she’d hoped to marry. Instead, Adeline accidentally enters the wrong chamber
  and tumbles into the bed of the mad duke.
  
  Edmond Rochester, the duke of Wolverton, is seeking a wife to care for his two
  daughters. A young lady of sensibilities, accomplishment, and most
  importantly, one who he is not attracted to—a complete opposite of the
  bewitching beauty who traps him into marriage. But despite the lust he feels
  for his new duchess, Edmond is resolved to never allow them intimacy, refusing
  to ever again suffer the tormenting loss of a loved one.
