The Ugly Duchess

"Eloisa James is extraordinary. ”
Lisa Kleypas

"Nothing gets me to the bookstore faster than a new novel by Eloisa James. ”
Julia Quinn

New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James gives the classic Hans Christian Andersen story of "The Ugly Duckling” a wonderful, witty, and delightfully passionate twist. The Ugly Duchess is another fairytale inspired romance from the unparalleled storyteller whose writing, author Teresa Medieros raves, "is truly scrumptious. ” A sexy and fun historical romance, James's winning tale of a glorious reawakening does not feature ducks and swans rather it's a charming story of a young woman unaware of her own beauty, suddenly duty-bound to wed the dashing gentleman who has always been her platonic best friend. . . until now.
