Would I Lie to the Duke

After a fire destroys the farm buildings dedicated to keeping her family’s soap business afloat, Jessica McGale rallies to save the company by adopting the fake title of Lady Whitfield and traveling to London to attend a conference catering to investors. There she meets the Duke of Rotherby, Noel Edwards, a young upstart with connections to the city’s elite. Noel is surrounded by those who rely on him for business favors, yet he feels no real ties to high society and has few associates outside of the Union of Rakes, his tight-knit group of friends from Eton. Lady Whitfield’s wit, assured business acumen, and poise easily draws Noel to her side, and he soon finds himself placing his trust and vulnerability in her hands. When Jessica’s desperate scheme finally comes to light, Noel vacillates between returning to his rakish ways or forgiving the woman who dominates his every thought.
