They call him the duke of murder.

The gossips whisper that the new Duke of Murdoch is a brute, a murderer, they mistook his wartime nickname The Duke of Murder, but even worse - a Scot. They say he should never be trusted alone with a woman. But Megan Windham sees in Hamish something different, someone different.

No one was fiercer at war than Hamish MacHugh, though now the soldier faces a whole new battlefield: a London Season. To make his sisters happy, he’ll take on any challenge - even letting their friend Miss Windham teach him to waltz. Megan isn’t the least bit intimidated by his dark reputation, she understands his brand of wit—their banter as she teaches him proper etiquette is great fun—and inspires his lust. but Hamish senses that she’s fighting battles of her own. For her, he’ll become the warrior once more, and for her, he might just lose his heart.

Burrowes never loses sight of the central couple, even with plenty of meddling added by the strong personalities in Megan’s extended family, which includes a duke and duchess, her parents, and various cousins and siblings. Unfortunately, the book’s light tone often gets lost in the final third, when villainous Sir Fletcher Pilkington steps up his nefarious efforts.

Note—the last two chapters are a preview of the next book but it was easier to leave the labels as they are.
