I was born into British aristocracy, but I've made my fortune in Manhattan. New York is now my kingdom.
Back in Britain, my family is fighting over who's the next Duke of Fairfax. The rules say it's me - if I'm married. It's not a trade-off worth making. I could never limit myself to just one woman.
Or so I thought until my world is turned upside down. Now, the only way I can save the empire I built is to inherit the title I've never wanted - so I need a wife.
To take my mind off business I need a night that's all pleasure. I need to bury myself in a stranger.
The skim of Scarlett King's hair over my body as she bends over...
The scrape of her nails across my chest as she screams my name...
The bite of her teeth on my shoulder just as we both reach the edge...
It all helps me forget.
I just didn't bargain on finding my one night stand across the boardroom table the next day.
She might be my latest conquest but I have a feeling Scarlett King might just conquer me.
A sexy, stand-alone romance.

J'aime les personnages qui sont autocritiques. J'aurai mis 5 étoiles s'il y avait une suite dramatique à la visite de Frédérick
Dessous les livres de Louise Bay, c'est ce que j'ai choisi de lire et je ne suis pas déçue. Je recommande donc

Scarlett King's divorce has really made her question everything- her life, her job and more. She put all her energy and time into the company she has created with her friend “Cecily Fragrance”. She needs to find money to keep her business afloat and is desperate to find the right investor who will accept her terms.
Ryder is a hot, sexy business man who is at the head of the Westbury Group. His life in Manhattan is perfect for him- a booming business, freedom of doing as he pleased and sleeping with women with no strings attached.
“I could never be faithful to one woman. There were too many beautiful girls in the world. I preferred the ones I didn’t know. It was less complicated.”
However in England, his fate is different. As the heir of the Woolton estate, he needs to be married before his grand-father dies if he wants to become the next Duke of Fairfax.
What’s the solution? To offer a business arrangement to Scarlett king that she can refuse… to marry him for her business in return.
“Marriage is always a deal. He has something you want, you have something he wants.”
They are from worlds apart, maybe not a perfect match for each other, but you know the saying, opposites attract each other...
“I’d won the fake-wife lottery.”
This book was simply beautiful from cover to cover with endearing moments and surprises… I loved, loved this book. It had everything that I love in a book. Can't recommend it enough!!

Right, with that out of the way (barely), let me just start with the plot— I’m going to be honest and just say that what sold me on this book was the previous standalones (I really think that this is a series of standalones, but hey ho— whatever!) and obviously, the fact that I have devoured and adored every. single. one. of Louise Bay’s previous books. So the plot, I was curious as to how the blurb would play out in a somewhat original way. What a silly thing to even concern myself with, obviously Ms. Bay had that covered. She managed to captured the best parts of The Bachelor, The Prince and Me, Pretty Woman and The Wedding Date in one enthralling and sweltering plot. Obviously, the British element only made it even more appealing to me… really brought it all home. But the thing that made this story brilliant was how well it was developed. The pacing was spot on, bang on the money, and the way in which the story and character development were interwoven and led the pace was just cunning on Bay’s part. What I mean by that is that although Ryder and Scarlett move quite fast, their journey to knowing each other and developing feelings is deliciously paced. It’s not an AHA! I love you moment, rather it’s something that is slowly unravelled and the more they get to now each other emotionally and physically the more tangled they become in their feelings for one another. It’s actually what makes this story so special and alluring— getting to know both of the characters at the same pace as they are getting to know each other really built an emotional tie to them. Obviously, it’s not all smooth cruising because it wouldn’t be a Louise Bay masterpiece without the angst that is brought in by the storm that blows everything apart.
I don’t know if you can tell, but I just loved Duke of Manhattan. Not just because of the plot, but the characters were flawlessly developed. I’m not sure whether this was intentional, or not, but the way in which Ryder uses the American version of words in very British contexts and vice versa really gave him the right amount of stiff upper lip and the American buoyancy that really should clash, but in his case made him jaw dropping, drool worthy. He has this dominance that not only arouses you, but also gives him this edge that you wouldn’t expect from a love ’em and leave ’em type. Especially because there isn’t some over the top completely Effed-up reason for it, it’s just who he is – he’s an aristocrat by blood and in business – a successful mogul, and he can do what he wants – when he wants. See what I mean? Every aspect, every facet is there to build him into nothing short of a book god! And, that’s all before he gets down to his birthday suit and shows his moves. After that, you’re just goo. A puddle. Gone.
I was so very excited for this book. The moment I was given the option of reviewing it I didn’t hesitate or think twice. Boy am I glad that I did, the months, weeks, and days of build up and anticipation were so very worth it. I’m really struggling to let go of Ryder and Scarlett. I just want more and more of their chemistry, banter, affection, passion… intensity… I need more of them in my life. I really could not get enough. This book made me laugh, cry, swoon… VERY wet…
And, on that note, off I go. There’s a puddle that needs mopping up…



I received an ARC for this book, and wrote this review freely but still bought the book because I absolutely loved it!!
