New York Times bestselling author Sophie
Jordan begins the all new Duke Hunt series with the illegitimate son of a duke
who meets his match in the daring daughter of a vicar.

The
Bastard Rogue… Peregrine
Butler’s privileged blue-blooded world is rocked to the core when it is
revealed he was born before his parents’ marriage and
therefore is not the legal heir to the dukedom. Now as poor as
the proverbial church mouse, Perry must use his charm and good looks to win an
heiress and save himself from wretched penury—all the while ignoring his
fascination with the one interfering and alluring chit who is intent on
sabotaging his efforts. The
Lady Vicar…

Everyone
knows Imogen Bates, the virtuous daughter of the senile vicar. It is she who
writes the sermons, and she everyone sees about all matters spiritual and
domestic. A pillar of the community, she will protect her beloved Shropshire
from all rogues, starting with the worst offender: the erstwhile Duke of
Penning, the bane of her existence since childhood. She vows
to protect the local heiresses from being taken in by the silver-tongued
fortune hunter because it’s the right thing to do … certainly not because she
finds herself wanting to keep his heated glances and tempting kisses all to
herself.
