Only Her Desire…
After losing his wife in childbirth, Colin Barrett, Duke of Northrop, does not trust healers. So when he discovers Selina White cleansing his home, he is livid. As duke, Colin is accustomed to his charges taking orders from him. But the fiery Selina has the audacity to defy him when he asks her to leave his lands. More infuriating, he cannot stop thinking about the seductive sway of her hips when she walks.
Can Heal His Heart…
The sick tenants of Northrop Park depend on Selina, and she’s not about to let a man tell her she must leave her village—even if he is a duke. And while Selina does not fear Colin’s temper, she is afraid of the secrets she keeps from him and of the desire he sets off in her every time he is near

Reviewer’s Thoughts:

Selina, a young healer and midwife, enjoys her work caring for the people of Northrop Park.

Colin, the Duke of Northrop, wants nothing more then to forget the past and go through life without feeling much.

Selina and Colin, do not meet on the best of grounds, Selina trying to do a ritual cleanse of the house comes a upon Colin sleeping as she starts cleansing his room. Colin has no use for healers and midwifes after what he thought was Selina’s mother not being able to save his wife and child while she was in labor.

Colin and Selina have a very rocky relationship, he pushes her away while also trying to keep her close. Selina, tries to stay away from him, but has a hard time staying away. The chemistry between burns quite brightly.

Bewitching the Duke is a great story, I really enjoyed how the plot developed. There was depth to the plot that was amazing. The characters were all well written, the enter actions between them was very believable.

I give Bewitching the Duke Five cocktails.
