"I Want Her Gone," the Duke Said Coldly — So His Wife Vanished Without a Word

"I Want Her Gone," the Duke Said Coldly — So His Wife Vanished Without a Word Four cold words through a study door end a marriage before breakfast. When the Duke of Lisle tells his steward he wants a woman gone by month's end, he never imagines his own wife is standing in the corridor, listening — and by dawn, Isabel is gone without a single note, leaving only the jewels he once gave her behind on her dressing table. For two years she endured his silence, certain he would never notice her absence any more than he'd noticed her presence. She is wrong. As Laurence searches for the wife he never truly knew, he begins to uncover a woman of quiet brilliance and hidden courage he overlooked for far too long. When he finally finds her four hundred miles away, teaching in an Edinburgh schoolroom, he must learn an entirely new language just to ask for her heart. Can a duke who never once asked for anything learn to ask for the one thing that matters most? duke romance, regency romance, historical romance audiobook, clean romance audiobook, second chance romance, marriage of convenience romance, cold duke romance, duke and duchess romance, slow burn romance, regency england romance, historical fiction romance, sweet romance story, period drama romance, wife disappears romance, sign language romance, deaf school romance, edinburgh historical romance, misunderstanding romance, duke redemption story
