Ne'er Duke Well BY Alexandra Vasti

The Scandalous Matchmaker is a steamy Regency romp that combines sharp wit with sizzling chemistry. Lady Selina Ravenscroft, the most proper debutante of London society, has a hidden side—she secretly runs an erotic circulating library for women. When Peter Kent, the newly inherited Duke of Stanhope and recent arrival from New Orleans, needs help to salvage his scandalous reputation, Selina is the cleverest and most capable woman he knows.

Peter’s recent escapades, including a sheep-related disruption at a minor royal wedding, have tarnished his name. As he aims to become a respectable guardian to his half-siblings, he turns to Selina for assistance. She suggests finding him a suitable bride of unimpeachable reputation—definitely not herself, despite her own unconventional interests.

However, matchmaking proves to be a chaotic affair. Peter’s half-siblings wreak havoc on Bond Street, and Selina finds herself unexpectedly in the Serpentine. Amid the pandemonium, the undeniable chemistry between Peter and Selina becomes impossible to ignore. As they navigate their roles in this social farce, they find themselves irresistibly drawn to each other.

In The Scandalous Matchmaker, the boundaries of propriety and passion blur, and the ultimate scandal may just be the deepening love between the disreputable duke and his unconventional matchmaker. This tale of romance and risqué secrets promises to enchant readers with its blend of Regency charm and steamy allure.
