Reader Review: A woman scorned 7 years previously, Louisa thought she had hardened her heart to the handsome Duke, Simon Tremaine. But machinations by the ambitious former advisor to her father broke her heart then and threaten to break it again. How could she fall for the former Governor-General of India? How could she not? He returns with a pet monkey that adopts her as his own and kisses that arouse more passion than Mrs. Harris's lessons could ever prepare her for. Once more Jeffries produces a vulnerable hero you can't help but love along with the heroine.
From New York Times bestselling author and "grand mistress of storytelling" ( Romantic Times ) Sabrina Jeffries comes the second seductive story in her School for Heiresses Series.
"You can't avoid him forever, Louisa. Just tell him you're not interested, and put an end to it."
-- Mrs. Charlotte Harris, headmistress
Marry? Never! It would end Louisa North's work with her ladies reform group -- and truth be told, she likes her independence very much, despite her royal father's protests. So when Simon Tremaine, the dashing Duke of Foxmoor whom she once loved -- and had exiled from England -- returns bent on marrying her, she's skeptical. Does he truly care for her, or does he simply want revenge? It's difficult to resist Simon's dangerous charms, because the fire between them still burns as hot as ever. But when his ulterior motive for marriage is exposed, along with the deeply buried secrets of his past, Louisa vows to make him pay . . . and the price will be his heart.

Only a Duke Will Do
Chapter One
London
April 1821
Dear Cousin Michael,
Do you know the Duke of Foxmoor who recently returned to England? I've heard such differing accounts of the scandal surrounding his departure that I hardly know what to believe. The two ladies most affected, Lady Draker and Lord Draker's sister Louisa, say nothing of it. Does the duke mention it around other gentlemen?
Yours fondly,
Charlotte
Nothing had changed in seven years.
And everything was different.
Simon Tremaine, the Duke of Foxmoor, stood on the granite gallery above his sister Regina's gardens and warily surveyed her guests. Perhaps he was merely different. Before his term as Governor-General of India, he would have known precisely how to handle this assembly of the brightest and best of English society.
Now he felt like a stranger in his own country.
A screeching sounded in his left ear, reminding him he was not the only stranger. He reached up to scratch his pet monkey's belly. "Yes, Raji, parties here are very different from those at Government House in Calcutta, are they not?"
No native orchestras playing with more enthusiasm than skill, no rich curries and peppered soups, no tropical palms dripping with coconuts. Here it was all practiced harpists, French sauces, and yew hedges dotted by beds of primrose.

Reviewer: A reader from BARRANCO - LIMA, NA PE
This is a story for all people who do not recognize love at first sight and when the time comes and they realize it, maybe it will be to late. As usual sabrina Jeffies tales wonderful stories, that will make you want to read them once more.

Reviewer: A reader from Gentofte, NA DK
This is a book stuffed with passion, politics and a lot of drama.
First we have the courtship, then the ruin of a well kept reputation and in the end we have the marriage.
But it dosn't stop there! This is were all the passion and drama steps in!
Best book ever!

They first met in the Brotherhood series. Here was his chance to redeem himself. Watching them fight love was as entertaining as it was futile. SJ's best book of the series.

Reviewer: A reader from Brooklyn, MS US
I love Sabrina Jefferies and have most of her ebooks. I love them all...except for this one. I was very disappointed in it. The story is great, the writing is wonderful and I think Louisa is great...but I just can't stand Simon. He may have had his problems, but I just couldn't justify his behavior. He left me cold and I never felt he was someone I could ever like. He ruined what could have been a great book for me.
