Prelude to a Scandal by Delilah Marvelle

Lady Justine is willing to sacrifice everything—her reputation, her social standing, even her own heart—to save her father from disgrace. When the infamous Duke of Bradford offers marriage as the price for freedom, the stakes become far greater than any scandal. Known for his conquests but also his secrets, the Duke is about to learn that respect is earned, not bought… and that love can’t be tamed by society’s rules. Prelude to a Scandal delivers irresistible romance, compelling conflict, and a heroine who dares to demand more.
