Eloisa James is extraordinary.—Lisa KleypasNothing gets me to the bookstore faster than a new novel by Eloisa James.—Julia QuinnNew York Times bestselling author Eloisa James gives the classic Hans Christian Andersen story of The Ugly Duckling a wonderful, witty, and delightfully passionate twist. The Ugly Duchess is another fairytale inspired romance from the unparalleled storyteller whose writing, author Teresa Medieros raves, is truly scrumptious. A sexy and fun historical romance, James’s winning tale of a glorious reawakening does not feature ducks and swans—rather it’s a charming story of a young woman unaware of her own beauty, suddenly duty-bound to wed the dashing gentleman who has always been her platonic best friend…until now. | The Ugly Duchess by Eloisa James, Mass Market Paperback | Indigo Chapters
