The Duke's Wicked Wife by Elizabeth   Bright
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this slow-burn romance. 4.5 stars
The blurb:
Sebastian Sinclair, the Duke of Wessex, is not in love with Eliza Benton—nor anyone else, for that matter. But he must marry and produce an heir, and love is not required for either. His future duchess must be of high birth and good nature, a lady unlikely to snipe at him over breakfast. In short, the complete opposite of Eliza. So who better to help him find a bride?

Eliza Benton is not in love with the Duke of Wessex. He’s infuriating, arrogant, and an ass of the first order. Not that she has any intention of marrying anyone now that her secret dream is on the cusp of becoming reality. A husband would ruin all her careful plans. But she’s all for finding her nemesis the perfect bride, anything to get him from underfoot so she can focus on her writing.

Thank goodness Sebastian and Eliza aren’t in love. That would be disastrous.

Elizabeth and Sebastian had great chemistry and banter throughout the book. He professed to not love anything or anyone and she was set to live the rest of her life single. Both had fears that stemmed from their childhood. As they begin to share those fears with one another their feelings for one another became clearer. You could feel the love they had for each other no matter how much they each denied it. When they finally kissed! It was worth the wait.

I hadn't realized this was part of a series. So it can be read as a stand-alone.
