My Secret Husband Is the Duke

To pay for her dying father’s treatment and her sister’s tuition, gifted commoner seamstress Layla accepts 60,000 gold coins to enter a secret two-year marriage with a man whose face she has never seen. Two years later, the only copy of their contract is accidentally burned. Determined to end the nameless, loveless marriage, Layla joins the Royal Tailors’ Guild to start over—only to clash with the cold and powerful Duke Ethan Blackwood. Neither realizes that the person they cannot stand, yet cannot resist, is the mysterious spouse they married on a rainy night. As anonymous letters, private seals, and charred contract fragments reveal the truth, Ethan finally discovers that the secret wife he has been searching for is the stubborn little seamstress desperately trying to escape him. This time, the Duke has no intention of letting her go.
