Catch a Falling Duke — Eve Pendle

He's a duke, she's a farmer, there's only one bed. What can go wrong?

A duke reeling from the revelation of the true origin of his family's wealth . . . A woman on a quest to solve her own family mystery . . .

After Hugo Ravensthorpe comes to Beatrice Fenton's aid in a crowded inn, the usually no-nonsense farmer finds herself sharing a room with the well-born, handsome stranger. Beatrice takes a chance and makes a scandalous proposition: one night, no commitments. But she can't refuse when Hugo offers to assist in tracking down the last connection to her mother, and one night becomes more... complicated.

The Duke of Cumbria is on the run. He never expected to end up masquerading as Mr. Ravensthorpe or to find himself in bed with witty and spirited Beatrice. One night with her, and not as a duke, makes him hungry for more. But can there be a future for a farmer and a duke? Or is love only possible if Hugo prevents his worlds colliding and Beatrice discovering his family secrets?
