This year their meeting has a sense of urgency. Time is running out.

If you've already read one of the Duke Society Series romances, this is bonus material. If you haven't, it's not necessary to read it first. *Please Note—This is a prologue to the series, nota full-length novel. It's just a taste of this royal and aristocratic billionaire romance series. Maybe think of it more as a little aperitif. Or like those samples at the grocery store where you can taste a tidbit before you buy. It's a look behind the scenes at what's happened before the first book begins. Don't worry—there's plenty more to come! Praise for The Duke Society Series from readers: "Witty, charming, and suspense filled." "Hard to put down!" "I loved the characters, Bliss and Ren. It was an entertaining story with lots of unexpected twists and turns." "…a unique take on a modern-day duke and duchess novel…Ren is freaking hot!"
