Her slender finger began tracing his facial features as she spoke, "My desire to make you mine," Her finger moved towards his plump lips as she sensually caressed them under her thumb, wondering how they would feel on hers. Will it be as mind-blowing as she had always imagined it to be? "Is still as solid as a rock, but...." She suddenly stopped her movement and stepped away from him. 

He frowned. When did she become so bold to touch him like that? He knew her for being timid and naive. Yes, he knew the girl fancied him a lot, but she had never dared to act on her feelings. Did he like it? Yes! And he was ready to see how far she could go in her game, so before she could take another step away from him, he brought her back to her previous position. Maybe closer than before.

Oh, how he wanted to feel those round breasts on his body and run his hands along those delicious-looking curves, but he held himself back. Susan wasn't his regular woman.

He could still feel the fierce innocence in those hazel eyes despite how daring she presented herself. It was her innocence that sent him running for his life. He couldn't trap her in his darkness- the darkness she was begging to be part of. 

To distract himself from throwing her into the bed and satisfying his demons, he repeated her last word as he was curious to know her mind, "But?"

"But I won't force you this time around...." 

Lady Susan, a determined and charming lady sets her sights on the most notorious of them all: Duke Edmund. Renowned for his debauchery and immoral exploits, the Duke had long been considered off-limits to the fairer sex. But Susan, with her mind made up, is not one to be deterred. 

With a fierce unwavering resolve, she embarks on a mission to tame the Duke, to make him hers and hers alone. But as she navigates the treacherous landscape, she begins to realise that the Duke’s wicked reputation may be more than just a facade.

As the battle of wills between them intensifies, Lady Susan finds herself drawn into a world of passion, seduction, and danger. As they surrender to their forbidden passion, the flames of desire burn brighter with every glance, every touch, and every stolen moment, but will her resolve be strong enough to overcome the Duke’s defences, or will she become the latest conquest in his long list of scandals?

Making the Duke Mine is a tantalizing tale of love, redemption, and the power of true devotion.

Making The Duke Mine

Edmund went to the dining room, his muddy boots leaving an ugly stain in its wake. It had rained heavily last night, making everywhere wet and sticky. He had been to the farm early in the morning to help a friend. He had hoped to make it back home on time and freshen up before dinner but things didn't work as planned, so he found himself sitting across from his mother, who looked at him in disbelief.

"Where have you been young man?" His mother, Lady Gabriella, asked, not at all pleased to see his first son, the Duke, look so disorderly.

"Good evening, mama." Turning to the right where his never-smiling father sat at the head table, he greeted, "Good evening, papa." Without sparing a glance at him, the man continued to eat his food, but he gave a curt nod to acknowledge his greeting, and that was enough for Edmund. The man barely spoke to him or his brother Jake, or his wife or anyone at all. "I went to help Zack with his farm work early this morning."
