The Lost Duke is about a long-lost cousin who may be the legitimate Wyndham heir (the second book deals with the current Wyndham heir). Jack is a highwayman who meets our heroine, Grace, and his possible grandmother, the dowager duchess, when he robs their coach. Quinn’s delightful characters always entertain…

From Jeri's list on lively characters and witty banter.
