THE STORY

About The Money-Grubbing Duchess

Roxy Barton, a greedy yet loyal bandit, just wanted a quick payout from a corpse. Instead, she gets mistaken for the Princess of Meridia and is thrust into a political marriage with the cunning, handsome Duke of Ashcroft, Julian Vance. She needs to clear her debts, while he needs to secure his power. Together, the fake Duchess and the real Duke enter a hilarious contract marriage full of scheming. But the palace hides deadly traps. With the Crown Prince and The Empress closing in, the bloody truth of a 12-year-old disaster relief scandal comes to light. As her secret identity nears exposure, a storm of power, love, and justice sweeps the royal capital.
