She Heard the Duke Loved Someone Else at Her Own Betrothal Ball — He Married Her Anyway

Cordelia Hollis learned that her future husband was in love with somebody else at her own betrothal ball — from two women who did not know she was standing behind them. She had four weeks until the wedding. She offered him his freedom twice: once in her father's library, and once at the church door. Both times the Duke of Wrenhall looked at her with that grave, courteous, unreachable face and said he intended to honour the contract. So she married him anyway. Four months later, the housemaid they had sent away came back to London as the most famous dancer in England. The print shops put them both in the window — a swan in a ballet dress, a small brown wren in a coronet — and asked all of London which bird he would keep. A full-length original Regency romance.
