waking up with the duke by lorraine heath

There is: Lord Walfort, his jewels, the scandalous Duchess of Ainsley and her artist lover with no known last name, his brothers and their ever-growing families. The hero and heroine of the story is the Duke of Ainsley and the Lady Jane Walfort, but the secondary characters play important roles. The guilt ridden Duke of Ainsley feels he owes his friend and cousin Walfort a debt, but the payment requested even shocked the rake. 'Waking Up With The Duke' is an emotional story about dysfunctional families of the aristocracy, friendships, guilt, regrets, and love. Most of the aforementioned books have little to no actual story. I did not find it objectionable as I do with stories that simply throw in page after page of sexual activity to increase the length of their books, or ones that depict erotic behavior intended to cause sexual excitement. The storyline calls for love-making throughout the book, but unlike many stories with immoderate sexual content the theme of 'Waking Up With The Duke' is about begetting a babe. London.Waking Up With The Duke is a unique story. She also writes young adult novels with her son under the name J. Under the names Rachel Hawthorne and Jade Parker, she writes popular contemporary, historical, and paranormal romance for teens readers. The author of more than 60 novels, she writes historical and contemporary romance for adults and historical romance for teen readers. Her novels have appeared on bestseller lists, including USA TODAY and the New York Times. Her work has been recognized with numerous industry awards including RWA's RITA®. She's been writing about them ever since.

When she read a romance novel, she became not only hooked on the genre, but quickly realized what her writing lacked: rebels, scoundrels, and rogues.

When she received her BA degree in psychology from the University of Texas, she had no idea she had gained a foundation that would help her to create believable characters-characters that are often described as “real people.” She began her career writing training manuals and computer code for the IRS, but something was always missing. Her 'dual' nationality has given her a love for all things British and Texan, and she enjoys weaving both heritages through her stories. Lorraine was born in Watford, Hertfordshire, England, but soon after moved to Texas. She is the daughter of a British beauty (her mom won second place in a beauty contest sponsored by Max Factor® during which she received a kiss from Caesar Romero, (the Joker on the original Batman TV series) and a Texan who was stationed at Bovingdon while serving in the air force. No doubt because growing up, watching movies with her mom, she was taught that the best movies 'won't half make you cry.'

Lorraine Heath has always had a soft spot for emotional love stories.

Also writes Young Adult under Rachel Hawthorne, Jade Parker, and with her son as J.A.
