Description
He's everything she's trying to avoid…But somehow precisely what she needs…
Caleb Crawford doesn't want to be a duke. He'd much rather build houses for a living. So when fate disrupts his peaceful life and burdens him with the responsibilities of a newly inherited title, he does what any sensible man would do by fleeing London, disguising himself as a laborer, and seeking refuge with three young spinsters who need his help with a leaky roof.
Ruined by a marquess who promised her the world, Mary Clemens has sworn to avoid marriage forever. Instead, she intends to live out her days with her friends and the orphaned children they've taken into their care. But when Mr. Crawford comes knocking, Mary finds herself in real danger of risking heartbreak all over again. Especially when she discovers that he's not at all what he seems.
Reviews
No Ordinary Duke
4By stresstomaxWonderful! I loved it. Soooo romantic. The characters were so noble and sweet and there was minimal sexual content but a very happy ending. As a Christian I did not like the use of the Lord’s name in vain though.End cut short.
5By DinkersinThe book was a great read. Loved the story line. However, the end sort of dropped off very abruptly. Almost feeling as it was rushed and unfinished.No Ordinary Duke
5By 2girls5boysI loved it! I wished it had gone on a bit more so we could spend more time with the characters and a in their lives.Save your money....
1By Oct3050The whole premise of not wanting to marry Caleb because he was a Duke was hard to believe. Also, the odds of Caleb brother being the one who was responsible for her fleeing society was ridiculous. I kept waiting for the story to get better but was disappointed.3.5 Stars
