The Captive Duke by Grace Burrowes
4.0
The Captive Duke is the first book in the Captive Hearts series. This is a re-release of the book The Captive from 2014.
The Duke of Severn was a prisoner of war to the French and suffered greatly at their hands. Yes, he bears the scars, but they did not break him. Now returned to England, he is trying to find the will to rejoin the living. He finds the source of his calm in the most unlikely place. Gillian, Countess of Windmere, his late wife's cousin, reminds him he still has reasons to live. Returning back to his county seat and reuniting with his daughter who needs him. The draw towards Gillian is impossible to resist, and figuring out her quirks is high on Christians' to-do list. And when strange things start happening, Christian goes into protective mode. As we learn from life, everything isn't always as it seems.
