Duke in Name Only

Misfortune is an excellent teacher. When Phillip Tavernash, Ninth Duke of Glenmoor, discovers his title is held fraudulently, he embarks on a journey to North America determined to succeed on his own. It doesn't go well. He has no idea what a fish out of water he will be. Nan Archer had to summon enough backbone to stand up to her father and older brother who moved their family across the frontier every time civilization reached any clearing in which they'd made a stake. She has landed on the banks of the Mississippi and built something of her own, the tavern Archers' Roost. She will go no farther. When Nan's brother dumps a pathetic traveler, robbed, beaten, and wounded, on her tavern floor she takes him in, as she would any wounded duck. That he called himself duke is cause for hilarity. Attraction blooms easily, but can Phillip look past his life of privilege to find what he's looking for deep inside himself? Can he convince her she's the answer to his search? Is he a duke or a bastard? Does it matter in the end? The Entitled Gentlemen Book 1 - Duke in All But Name Book 2 - Duke in Name Only Book 3 - Never a Duke
