“Eloisa Wayne is amazing.”

-Lisa Kleypas

“Nothing at all gets me to the bookstore faster when compared to a brand-new book by Eloisa Adam.”

-Julia Quinn

New York Moments bestselling author Eloisa Adam gives the traditional Hans Christian Andersen story of “The Ugly Duckling” a wonderful, witty, and delightfully passionate twist. The Ugly Duchess is normally another fairytale motivated romance in the unparalleled storyteller whose writing, author Teresa Medieros raves, “is actually scrumptious.” An attractive and fun historical romance, James’s winning tale of the glorious reawakening does not feature ducks and swans-rather it’s a captivating story of a woman unacquainted with her very own beauty, suddenly duty-bound to wed the dashing gentleman who is definitely her platonic closest friend…until now.
