Violet Royal, Lauren

**Violet Royal by Lauren Patina - Romance That Hits Different**

This preloved romance gem follows Violet, a small-town florist who inherits a crumbling English estate and discovers she's accidentally engaged to a brooding duke who's absolutely furious about it. What starts as a paperwork nightmare turns into a delicious enemies-to-lovers romp through countryside drama, family secrets, and enough sexual tension to power a small village.

Lauren Patina crafts contemporary romance with historical flair, exploring themes of identity, belonging, and whether you can actually hate someone while desperately wanting to kiss them (spoiler: complicated). Perfect for readers who devour romance novels, love fish-out-of-water stories, and aren't afraid of heroes who need serious attitude adjustments.

This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks has lived a little but still has plenty of swoon left in it.
