Duke's Diamonds

by M. C. Beaton

Overview

In the New York Times–bestselling author’s Regency romance, an old dog learns new tricks, inherits a fortune, and leads two humans to love.

After spending her life at an orphanage, young Emily is brought to the opulent estate of Sir Peregrine Manley, where she is employed as companion to the old man’s dog.
