Book Synopsis

Falling for the Enemy

When Weslorian Princess Amelia is sent to England before she can cause a scandal, she imagines London society with ballrooms and grand houses. Instead, she is sent to a quiet village in Devon, where she finds her new home shabby and under renovation.

Next door lives the reclusive Duke of Marley, Joshua Parker. When Joshua is dragged by a friend to his neighbour’s soiree to meet their new guest, he and Amelia instantly dislike each other. Their banter is heated. He’s stuck-up and arrogant; she’s a self-involved, annoying princess.

But if they dislike each other so much, why can’t they stop thinking about each other?

A sparkling new historical romance from New York Times bestselling author Julia London
