I hope you enjoy ‘The Duke Confounded’, the spicier version of ‘Penelope’, just as much.Penelope Fairweather is yanked from the tranquil embrace of Finnshire by the dowager and tossed into the glittering ballrooms of the upper crust. Thus, filled with hope and a husband-hunting gleam in her eye, she descends upon the unsuspecting ton. Alas, her hopes to ensnare a husband begin to sway like a bamboo on a windy day when she encounters the wealthy, handsome and incredibly cantankerous Duke of Blackthorne.The duke is aghast when confronted with her wild and unruly nature and vows to fling her back from whence she came. She is everything the discerning Duke despises, but to his utter horror, he soon finds himself undeniably drawn to this charming, clumsy whirlwind.Together, our contrary couple plunge into uproarious misadventures, scandalous parties, pure madness, and amidst it all, mutually stew in aforbidden attraction that burns brighter than any ballroom chandelier.
