To Dance With a duke (Dollar Princess series book two) by Gabrielle Meyers

If you loved Seven Brides For Seven Brothers you will most likely love To Dance With A Duke by Gabrielle Meyers. This book features a house party during the Guilded Age when American heiresses were sent to England to snag titles from impoverished noblemen. A recntly wed Duke and his American Duchess host several young American heiresses and their chaperones hoping to find brides for his brothers. Throw in a castle, a curse, spooky passageways and the dreary weather of the Moors add up to a fantastic tale. I suggest you get the good china out, brew a pot of tea and curl up for a great story! All thoughts are my own.

From Amazon: For those who love The Gilded Age and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. In 1884, Ames Welby, the Duke of Severton, is desperate. His ancestral home is falling apart, his tenant farmers are starving, and his family name is tainted by a mysterious scandal that keeps people away. With no fortune and no time, he does the unthinkable—marries for money. But Lily Parker, the American heiress he weds in haste, is no pampered socialite. She’s practical, passionate, and has a plan to restore Pickering Castle—and the reputation of the five reclusive Welby brothers. Inspired by her love of matchmaking and her longing for connection, Lily invites four eligible young women to a summer house party, hoping to spark romance and rebuild the family’s future. What follows is a whirlwind of mischief, mismatched couples, and unexpected love. But when Lily’s belief in true love clashes with Ames’s fear of family curses and social ruin, their fragile marriage is put to the ultimate test. As storms rage and secrets unravel, Ames must decide: will he fight for legacy—or for the woman who’s taught him that love is the most daring risk of all?
