A house.A crumbling, debt-ridden, wildly impractical country house with a leaking roof, suspicious noises in the East Wing, loyal servants who know far too much, and a dairy cow named Duchess.To Clara, it is perfect.For the first time in her life, something belongs to her.Unfortunately, Brambleford Hall comes with one very serious defect.A duke.Nathaniel Blackmoor, Duke of Ravenscar, arrives with immaculate boots, a solicitor, and the deeply inconvenient belief that Brambleford Hall was promised to him. Clara refuses to surrender her inheritance. Nathaniel refuses to leave. The house, meanwhile, appears determined to collapse on them both with impartial enthusiasm.Then the will reveals its most outrageous clause. Before the rightful owner can be decided, Clara and Nathaniel must reside at Brambleford Hall together for thirty days.Clara has no intention of living under the same roof as an arrogant duke, no matter how handsome, infuriating, or annoyingly useful he may be. So she does the only sensible thing.She searches for a loophole. But every attempt to avoid the clause only tangles her deeper in legal confusion, village gossip, ghostly rumors, and Nathaniel’s impossible presence.Because the duke is not merely in the deed.He may be in the house to stay.I Accidentally Inherited A Duke is a witty Regency romantic comedy about a stubborn lady, an offended duke, a troublesome inheritance, and one crumbling estate that refuses to behave.
