They see a brokenhearted widow.

She's far from shattered.

Lady Philippa Winston is never marrying again. After her late husband's cruelty that she kept so well hidden, she has no desire to search for love.

Years ago, Miles Brookfield, the Marquess of Guilford, made a frivolous vow he never thought would come to fruition--he promised to marry his mother's goddaughter if he was unwed by the age of thirty. Now, to his dismay, he's faced with honoring that pledge. But when he encounters the beautiful and intriguing Lady Philippa, Miles knows his true path in life. It's up to him to break down every belief Philippa carries about gentlemen, proving that not only is love real, but that he is the man deserving of her sheltered heart.  

Will Philippa let down her guard and allow Miles to woo a widow in desperate need of his love?  

*****To Woo a Widow is an approximately 40,000 word short novel.

To Woo A Widow is book ten in The Heart of a Duke series by Christi Caldwell. So far I have loved every one of these books, but this one I felt fell short of the mark. The hero and heroine fell in love a bit too quickly for me. It felt rushed. I enjoyed the hero’s interaction with the lady’s children. There were some lovely tender hearted scenes. I’m going to finish the series, so I am moving on to the next book.
