About this listen

Amidst the glittering ballrooms and afternoon teas of Regency England, a tale of daring escapades and rekindled love unfolds in Duke of No Return.

Lady Frances Rowley is no ordinary debutante—feisty, intelligent, and determined to forge her own destiny, she faces an unwanted marriage that threatens to bind her to a life she dreads. With her options dwindling, Frances turns to the one person she swore never to ask for help: her scandalous childhood friend, the Duke of Hargate, Johnathan Seton.

Johnathan, a member of the notorious secret club known as The Wayward Dukes, lives a life of freedom and vice. When Frances implores him for assistance, he initially refuses, unwilling to entangle himself in her plight. But as her wedding day dawns, the image of Frances walking down the aisle to a fate she despises spurs him into action. In a thrilling and audacious move, Johnathan abducts her from the church, setting off on a tumultuous journey to Gretna Green.

As they traverse the countryside, their rekindled friendship sparks into a blazing passion that neither expected. The journey is fraught with challenges, from relentless pursuers to the internal battles of their own hearts. Frances discovers that the boy she once knew has become a man of depth and complexity, while Johnathan finds himself captivated by the woman Frances has become—strong, vibrant, and unyieldingly determined.

As they reach the fabled destination of Gretna Green, they must confront the ultimate question: can their love survive the trials they've endured, or will it be lost to the perils of their past?
