Dearest Millie is a poignant tale of two lovers, life’s calamities, and the healing power of the human heart. How to Ditch a Duke Lady Taylor Fleming is an heiress with a suitor on her tail. Her step-by-step plan to ditch him is simple. But there is nothing simple about Franz Aurech, Duke of Bamberg.
