The Duchess Contest: A Magical Regency Style Romance

By Eva Morland

The Duchess Contest A sparkling historical fantasy full of enemies-to-lovers tension, courtly intrigue, and unexpected magic. Twenty-one women want the title. Elena just wants out. Elena Chamberlain never planned to become a duchess--least of all to the cold and calculating Lord Ambrose Westbrook. But when her cousin is selected for a royal matchmaking contest, Elena is roped into the competition against her will. Her plan? Sabotage the whole charade, charm no one, and get back to her quiet life. Lord Ambrose didn't ask to be the crown's latest spectacle. But duty demands he find a wife--and quickly. The last woman he expects to challenge him is the sharp-tongued commoner with no intention of winning. As secret alliances form and rivalries turn cutthroat, Elena and Ambrose find themselves thrown together again and again. What begins as contempt simmers into reluctant admiration--and something far more dangerous. But there are whispers in the palace. Of magic resurfacing. Of rebellion brewing. And as the stakes of the contest grow higher, so do the risks of falling in love. Perfect for fans of The Selection , Bridgerton , and Sorcery of Thorns , The Duchess Contest blends regency-style romance with slow-burn fantasy, sharp banter, and a heroine who refuses to play by the rules.
