Bookish, bespectacled, and, well, \u003ci\u003eplain, \u003c\/i\u003e she never expected to befriend a dissolute charmer like Colin Lacey, much less agree to help him retrieve a lost family heirloom. Fortunately, he is nothing like his cold, rigid older brother. Unfortunately, he is not above deception if it means winning a wager. And that puts Jane in a most precarious position. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eA formidable duke will marry a plain Jane\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor Harrison Lacey, the Duke of Blackmore, protecting his family honor is not a choice, it is a necessity. So, when his cad of a brother humiliates the unwitting Lady Jane, Harrison must make it right, even if it means marrying the chit himself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnd a marriage of convenience will become so much more\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHer reputation hanging by a thread, Jane agrees to wed the arrogant Duke of Blackmore, although she's convinced it will result in frostbite. Only after lingering glances lead to devastating kisses does she begin to suspect the truth: Perhaps-just perhaps-her duke is not as cold as he appears.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReading romance novels came easily to Elisa Braden. She's been doing it since she was twelve. Writing them? That took a little longer. After graduating with degrees in creative writing and history, Elisa spent entirely too many years in \"real\" jobs writing T-shirt copy ... and other people's resumes ... and articles about giftware displays. But that was before she woke up and started dreaming about the very unreal job of being a romance novelist. Frankly, she figures better late than never. \u003cbr\u003e Elisa lives in the gorgeous Pacific Northwest, where you're constitutionally required to like the colors green and gray. Good thing she does. Other items on the \"like\" list include cute dogs, strong coffee, and epic movies. Of course, her favorite thing of all is hearing from readers who love her characters as much as she does. \u003cbr\u003e If you're one of those, get in touch on Facebook (www.facebook.com\/authorelisabraden), Twitter (@trueelisabraden), and Pinterest (www.pinterest.com\/elisabraden), or visit www.elisabraden.com.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 344\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.77 x 8 x 5.25 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 29, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47415789519097,"sku":"9781540853899","price":20.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/LX88Kbfv_I9781540853899.webp?v=1770958864","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-truth-about-cads-and-dukes-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
