Duke’s Proposal is a short two-book Regency romance series by Fenella J. Miller, published in 2013 and 2014. The series follows the familiar Regency dynamic of a duke seeking a match and a heroine who is either reluctant or complicated by circumstance, told across two connected but self-contained volumes.
The Duke’s Proposal sets up the situation: a man of rank in need of a wife and the social manoeuvring required to secure one. The Duke’s Reluctant Bride shifts the perspective slightly, placing the hesitation on the bride’s side and working through what changes her position.
Both books are typical of Miller’s Regency output: quick reads with period-appropriate settings, social tension as the main source of conflict, and a romantic resolution by the final pages. Readers who enjoy her longer Duke series will find the same voice and style here in a shorter format.
