But by morning, London believes the child is his   and so is she.  \nCold, brooding, and aloof, Duke Adrian has spent his life avoiding scandal…only to end up at its center. Now he must uncover the baby’s true father. But until then, there is only one way to contain the rumors: marry Ophelia.  \nYet the longer she wears his name, the more Adrian suspects the greatest mystery is not the baby’s origins, but his new wife herself… and why she refuses to leave his thoughts.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nHere is Adrian’s prequel chapter that will help you understand and visualize the story inside my book better.  \nMost of my readers love it and that's why I know you will too!

Please! You must help me!”  \nMiss Ophelia Turner screamed so loudly that her voice turned hoarse. However, the pounding rain that fell thick and heavy from the sky drowned it out so that it came as barely a whimper. Worse still, the wind which blew harshly, and the rumbling of thunder that rolled across the black sky, made it so she might not have screamed at all.  \n“Help!” she cried again as she stumbled along the muddy road.“Please!”  \nOphelia was not screaming in vain. She might have done, because she felt so desperate that she wanted to fall to her knees and cry out as if that might somehow save her. Only, in this instance, there was a reason for her shouting.  \nFor hours now, she had stumbled along the road. Her journey had started ata quick pace, running through the night as if being chased, but as the hours wore on, and as the energy fled her body, it was all Ophelia could do to put one foot in front of the other.","cbCaiiK143gTQpV5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiK143gTQpV5","pdf",5234281,16,354,"English","en",105,"# Contents\n## Before You Start Reading…\n## Chapter 1\n## Chapter 2\n## Chapter 3\n## Chapter 4\n## Chapter 5\n## Chapter 6\n## Chapter 7\n## Chapter 8\n## Chapter 9\n## Chapter 10\n## Chapter 11\n## Chapter 12\n## Chapter 13\n## Chapter 14\n## Chapter 15\n## Chapter 16\n## Chapter 17\n## Chapter 18\n## Chapter 19\n## Chapter 20\n## Chapter 21\n## Chapter 22\n## Chapter 23\n## Chapter 24\n## Chapter 25\n## Chapter 26\n## Chapter 27\n## Chapter 28\n## Chapter 29\n## Chapter 30\n## Chapter 31\n## Chapter 32\n## Chapter 33\n## Chapter 34\n## Chapter 35\n## Epilogue\n## Extended Epilogue\n## Preview: Duchess by Condition","[{\"question\":\"Why does Ophelia end up on the duke’s doorstep?\",\"answer\":\"After delivering a baby she was sworn to protect, Ophelia collapses on the Duke of Vermont’s doorstep during a stormy night.\"},{\"question\":\"What problem does Duke Adrian face once morning arrives?\",\"answer\":\"London believes the child is the duke’s and assumes Ophelia is his as well, drawing Adrian into scandal and rumor.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Adrian respond to contain the rumors?\",\"answer\":\"He marries Ophelia temporarily, even as he grows increasingly suspicious that the greatest mystery may be about her.\"}]","THE DUCHESS ON HIS DOORSTEP -
