FEBRUARY 14, 2026 The Brazen Bluestocking: The Duchess Society Book 1 By Tracy Sumner

"There are two things I need to absolutely adore a historical romance. Gorgeous writing and romantic tension that is so intense I'm basically a stick of melting butter. With quick pacing, perfectly steamy scenes, and a cast of loveable side characters, I need the next Duchess Society book in hand, well, yesterday!" ~ Charlie Lane, Regency romance author

The start of the wildly popular Duchess Society! A duchess, a broken engagement, an attempted murder, a kidnapping, and a cat. And best of all, a delicious amount of steam and a happy ending!

Bad boy hero: He’s ruthless and untouchable, but she’s the one temptation he can’t resist.

Lady Hildegard Templeton has never fit the mold of a proper society lady. With a quick mind, a bold spirit, and a heart set on love, she’s built a reputation—and an empire—with The Duchess Society, a refuge for women determined to marry on their own terms. She’s been called a bluestocking, a scandalous misfit, but Hildy refuses to settle for anything less than passion.

Even if she’s never felt it.

Until the most notorious rogue in London crosses her path.

Tobias Streeter, the bastard son of a viscount, has clawed his way to power from the gutter, forging a fortune as dark and dangerous as the man himself. Now, he needs a respectable bride to claim his rightful place among the ton, and The Duchess Society is his best chance at securing the perfect match. Love, however, is not part of his plan. Revenge fuels his quest for a wife—and a title to match his fortune.

When Hildy and Tobias collide in a battle of wits and wills, sparks ignite. She’s defiant, he’s ruthless, and neither expected the searing attraction that could burn through their carefully laid plans. But when their passionate wager brings them closer, both must decide if love is a risk worth taking.

In this scorching enemies-to-lovers novel by USA Today Bestselling author Tracy Sumner, a rebellious lady and a devilish rogue must choose between duty and desire.
