Once Upon A Time...there was a Duke who wore a brass key around his throat. No one in the kingdom knew what it unlocked until SHE came along...

Miss Magdalene Evelyn Barlow may be related to the Grimm brothers, but her life, even as an heiress to a vast fortune, is anything but a fairy- tale. Only one man can bring that fairy-tale to life: The Duke of Thornton. His gruff and isolating ways hides an overly passionate, guilt- ridden man who refuses to let any woman near until trouble-toting Magdalene rolls up her sleeves and introduces him to the scrubbing magic of...love. ​ WARNING: This book contains strong language and sexual content that may cause respectable people to swoon.
