Shocked to find Miranda in his bed, Sebastian quickly offers her a deal to avoid scandal: He'll help her win his brother's heart if she'll find him the perfect wife. But what begins as a simple negotiation soon spirals out of control. For the longer this reformed rake tries to make a match for Miranda, the more he wants to keep her all to himself.
Miranda Hodgkins has only ever wanted one thing: to marry Robert Carlisle. And she simply can't wait a moment longer. During the Carlisle family masquerade ball, Miranda boldly sneaks into his bedchamber with seduction on her mind. Soon she's swept into rock-hard arms for the most breathtaking kiss of her life. But when the masks come off, she's horrified to find herself face-to-face with Sebastian, the Duke of Trent-Robert's formidable older brother.
A classic case of mistaken identity, which lends to the predictability of this romance, but If The Duke Demands is a good way to spend a rainy afternoon.
Miranda is in love with Robert Carlisle. She's always been in love with him. So she takes matters into her own hands and plans to seduce him. Instead of Robert, however, she finds herself with Robert's older brother, Sebastian. The two make a plan to get Robert to fall in love with Miranda, and of course, that plan backfires.
For its predictability, If The Duke Demands is a cute romance and was able to keep my interest until The End. I enjoyed the Carlisle family and look forward to reading about the other two brothers, Quinton and Robert.
