Geek Girls Don't Date Dukes (Geek Girls #2)

by Gina Lamm 

Leah Ramsey has always loved historical romance novels and dressing in period costumes. So when she has a chance to time travel and experience the history for herself, she jumps at it—figuring it can't be too hard to catch the eye of a duke. After all, it happens all the time in her novels.

Avery Russell, valet and prize pugilist, reluctantly helps Leah gain a position in the Duke of Granville's household . . . as a maid.

Domestic servitude wasn't exactly what she had in mind, but she's determined to win her happily ever after. Even if the hero isn't exactly who she's expecting.

My Teaser:

"Avery?" The question was whispered, her eyes soft and confused as she looked up at him. He let his actions answer. Bending low, he pressed his lips to hers.

Soft heat. That was the sensation of her mouth on his. His muscles trembled with the effort of holding himself still, of restraining the urge to draw her body tight against his and posses her completely. This was enough. It was more than he deserved and all he'd ever get. She was leaving here, leaving him, forever." (pg. 148)
