Deborah Simmons joins authors Deborah Hale and Nicola Cornick in The Love Match, a Harlequin Historical anthology of all-new Regency novellas. In Simmons' entry, "The Notorious Duke," Pagan Penhurst is bored by Brighton until his friend Hazard wagers there is at least one woman at the seaside resort unfazed by Pagan's charms. Pagan takes up the challenge only to meet Miss Scholastica Hornsby, a most unusual young lady with a mind of her own. When she manages to make even the hardened rake break into a sweat, Hazard is betting that theirs will be a Love Match.
