Ep.13—The Duchess Deal: Who Needs a Father When You Have a Daddy?

The scarred Beast of Mayfair enters a marriage of convenience with the strong-willed seamstress who is determined to woo him out of his grumpy persona. Also worthy of mention: an adopted cat named breeches who was most definitely *not* named after the Duke's enticing derrière...or so the new Duchess would have you believe. Trigger warning: mentions of pregnancy, sexual trauma, lack of self love, misogynistic comments, fire and intense scarring.

This monster can be a prejudice, fear, insecurity, trauma and so on. We believe that romance novels are as much about one's personal journey as they are about finding love. After all, love makes us vulnerable and forces us to bare our monsters to another.
