Sophia and the Duke Kindle Edition

4.0 out of 5 stars 114 ratings

After the passing of her husband, the elderly Duke of Brokenhurst, twenty-two-year-old Sophia chafes at her family’s expectations during her lengthy mourning period. When she is free to re-emerge in society at last, at her grandmother’s insistence she entertains the courtship of Nathaniel Hartwell, a distant cousin of the old duke and the man next in line for the title.

To her shock, Sophia learns that Nathaniel has spent the last eight years living as a trapper and fur trader in the mountains of Canada, isolating himself from the world after the tragic death of the woman he loved. Though he is a rough, uncivilised man, his devilishly handsome looks and commanding presence excite her in a way nothing ever has before.

Sophia sets out to transform the new duke into someone suitable for polite society, but when her comments become disrespectful and mocking Nathaniel takes issue with her behaviour. Almost before she knows it, she is over his lap and her aristocratic bottom has been bared for a sound spanking.

Knowing that it is the right choice for all concerned, Nathaniel asks her to be his wife, but despite the fact that their marriage begins as one of convenience he is determined to show Sophia the intense pleasure a strong man’s dominant lovemaking can bring her. Though her spoiled attitude occasionally earns her a bright red, well-spanked bottom, as the weeks pass her desire for him grows ever stronger. But can love truly bridge the gulf between people from such different worlds?

Publisher’s Note: Sophia and the Duke is an erotic romance novel that includes spankings, sexual scenes, anal play, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

    What a fun read! I love the eternal story of a sexy, dominant yet kind man who marries a sassy, sweet young woman. Oh, the fun they get up to while learning to meld their personalities together in marriage. And Jaye Peaches ensures there are many paragraphs full of "fun times" for everyone to enjoy. There is some discipline (no surprise, right? You read the excerpt! You know this author!) but I LOVE LOVE LOVE that Jaye keeps it consensual and within the bounds of my personal limits, not that she specifically set out to do that (but still, I appreciate it! Thanks, JP!) To me, racy but consensual makes a novel really hot because it's fully enjoyable. The story is fun and the characters are quirky, and I just thoroughly enjoyed the read.

    Another lovely book by Jaye Peaches.

    The plot is fun and engaging, the characters well developed and likable, the steam factor unparalleled. What a sexy, engaging read! I loved Nathaniel, and found him to be charming, kind, and though he had high expectations for his wife, insisting that she obey him and accept discipline when he deemed it necessary, he was always fair and just, and I very much enjoyed the erotic flavor of even the most serious discipline sessions.

    Sophia was proud but good natured, relatable, and I enjoyed witnessing her transformation as she fell in love with her husband and found she yearned to please him. Highly recommended!

    I usually stray away from historical novels because I find them slow and boring. Sophia and The Duke kept me wrapped in its pages from the beginning. I loved watching Sophia try to transform Nathaniel into a man fit for society. Sophia and The Duke is a perfect example of what happens when people from two different worlds come together and try to make a relationship last.

    What starts as a relationship of convenience turns into a budding romance full of lust, spankings, and the need to be wanted. This is my first book that I've read by Peaches but it sure won't be my last! Peaches has a way of writing that draws you despite the fact that the genre may be out of your comfort zone.

    This book is very well written, offering not only good complex characters but a particularly honest and captivating look at relationship evolvement. Most definitely hot sex and D/s are at the core of the chemistry between Nathaniel and Sophia. The reader is allowed to see how true commitment, as well as, shifting and balance of power affects the union. Beyond the story of the couple are the elements of England following the French Revolution and a tantalizing element from the New World frontier. The story pulled me into it, as I really had not initially expected.

    A novel with a strong, intelligent woman is always interesting. This, however, is not that novel. This is a story about male dominance and female submissiveness. Very little plot and boring characters. If you’ve read one such novel, you’ve read them all.

    I chose this.book because I had read other books by this author and enjoyed reading her other books. I recommend this book it is an very good read. I loved the characters and the happy ending.

    These horrible characters should get a divorce. There is nothing likeable about either of them and they don't even like each other, instead trying to bend the other to their will using emotional and physical abuse. This is toxic relationship not a love story.

    Steamy but 60% of the way through I couldn't stomach anymore.

    I really enjoyed this romance set in reject times. The story is well written and much richer than I was expecting. The characters drew me in as their relationship developed and changed. The love scenes are explicit, exploring d/s fantasies.
