The Duke's Penny Bride (The Halton Abbey Mysteries Book 1)

A marriage of convenience. A dowry of one penny. A deadly plot against the groom. When penniless Kate agrees to marry Adam, Duke of Halton Abbey, it's a bargain, nothing more — until an assassin's blade proves someone wants him dead. As the "Penny Duchess" digs for answers, she uncovers secrets from her own past and an attraction to her fake husband that's anything but convenient.
