About this listen
A widow looking for a tryst. A duke with burning desire. A love born from mutual pains of the past.
Rosina
After losing the love of her life, Lady Rosina Preston had no intentions of looking for love. Fortunately, for Rosina, love isn’t always part of the equation when it comes to indulging her desires.
But all that changes one night at a country house party, where Rosina finds herself in the middle of a scandalous arrangement with James, the Duke of St. Albans.
Soon, Rosina finds herself falling for James and his charming, steadfast heart. But is she able to forget the pains of the past and begin again? Or will she lose love a second time?
James
The Duke of St. Albans has no time for love. At least, that is what James has told himself since his parents' accident. He finds himself inundated with caring for his younger brothers, including forgoing his own desires to be the role model they need. But James longs for the touch of a woman. A touch he’s never felt.
When James meets the intriguing widowed Lady Preston at a country house party, his world and his desires collide in a perfect storm.
Their arrangement is simple, but soon James finds himself falling for a woman whose heart he knows he can’t have.
Can James be honest about what he wants? Or will his truth destroy their precarious arrangement for good?
Note: This is a spicy novella with 5+ explicit scenes and a guaranteed HEA!

Victorian romance
The Duke and the Widow by Christina Diane is an excellent historical Victorian romance. C. C. Kline did an incredible job with the narration. The Duke and the Widow is the fifth book in The Unlikely Betrothal series. The story is entertaining, interesting, romantic, hot, spicy, and steamy. Rosina lost her first love, James thinks love is a waste of time. They are both at a country house party where they meet. They end up in a scandalous arrangement, but soon they start falling for each other. What will happen next. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. Highly recommend
