A Second Duchess...Or a Second Chance? Belinda Collins, dowager Duchess of Winchester, has sworn to keep a group of war heroes safe from the monster who's trying to turn their home into a military academy. Unfortunately, that monster is Brigadier Maxwell Thorpe, the same man who once chose his military career over her, shattering her heart and sending her into the arms of another. Now Maxwell is back in England, and he wants more than just an academy-he wants a second chance with Belinda. When the army threatens once more to come between them, can they find a way to compromise what their hearts most desire in order to claim the future that should have been theirs? *This title was previously published as part of the No Dukes Allowed anthology.*
