THE DUCHESS DIARIES

November 2005 * St. Martin's Press
ISBN 0-312-93238-3

A secret baby, a murder mystery, and a 100 year-old diary...

Ten years as a high-stakes jewel thief should have helped me forget Sophie Hunti
ngton Ramsey. But no matter how far I traveled, she was never far from my thoug
hts. Her earthy sensuality. Her wild passion. For ten long years, my memory
of our one forbidden night together burned as hot as the encounter itself. The
thought of her betrayal with my oldest, dearest friend blazed even hotter.
Imagine my surprise when I heard of Sophie's widowhood--and that her husband, th
e Duke of Mulford, named me guardian of her young son! Imagine my shock when I
learned that Sophie might have had a hand in her husband's untimely death.
It seems that fate has brought Sophie and me together once again. When I return
to England to claim my role as guardian, I also vow to win back Sophie's heart.
I will slowly seduce her until she is weak with wanting. And when I've had my
fill of her, I will expose her as a murderess.
--From the Memoirs of Grant Chandler
"The Duchess Diaries dazzles with its delectable blend of romance and suspense!
--Teresa Medeiros, author of After Midnight
"A fantastic read! Barbara Dawson Smith is always excellent." --Cathy Maxwell,
