      He had to make his excuses and get out of here.

      It was best if he kept his distance from her. They were business partners and nothing more. That was all they could be. And the fact that he had to keep reminding himself of that was not a good sign.

      “Well, I have some other surgical patients to make my rounds on. I’ll leave you to your work.”

      It was a complete lie. There was no one else to do rounds on, but the more Thomas lingered here the harder it was to leave. He found himself enjoying her company.

      “I’ll see you later. I should head back to the office.”

      Geri nodded and walked away, doing what he couldn’t do. And he watched her walk down the hall toward the elevators.

      This was bad.

      When had she gone from being someone he loathed—someone he’d planned to put through her paces because he wanted Charles’s practice all to himself—to being someone he wasn’t able to tear himself away from, admiring the flush of her skin, the red of her lips and wondering what it would be like to take her in his arms and kiss her?

      The moment you saw her.

Dear Reader,

      Thank you for picking up a copy of Unwrapped by the Duke.

      London, England, has always been a destination at the top of my bucket list. I’ve been in love with everything British since I was a young girl and was forced to watch countless hours of Fawlty Towers, Monty Python and Blackadder. ‘Forced’ is not the right word... I highly enjoyed spending that time with my father, and it started my lifelong love of anything British.

      My love for and fascination with the British monarchy stems back to that magical moment when I was only five years old and I stayed up to watch Princess Diana marry Prince Charles. I was in a sleeping bag on the floor, staring up at the television in wonder and awe.

      I had so much fun writing about Thomas Ashwood, Duke of Weatherstone. He was a delightfully dark and delicious hero to write about—although he has a hard time believing in love after a very lonely childhood. Dr Geraldine Collins comes from a very different world from Thomas’s—but only different in situation. She’s also had a very lonely childhood, with a cold, detached mother and a father she doesn’t know exists until the start of our story.

      Thomas and Geri don’t believe in love. They think they’re fine on their own—until they meet and realise just how lonely they both are. I hope you enjoy Thomas and Geri’s story just as much as I enjoyed writing it.

      I love hearing from readers, so please drop by my website, amyruttan.com, or give me a shout on Twitter @ruttanamy.

      With warmest wishes,
