Forced to Marry a Fat Veteran Duke at 18, She Discovered His Shocking Secret on Their Wedding Night

Forced to Marry a Fat Veteran Duke at 18, She Discovered His Shocking Secret on Their Wedding Night

Step into an unforgettable historical romance audiobook as Duke Gideon Varrick reveals the truth behind a marriage that began in fear but transforms into something neither he nor young Marianne ever expected.

📖 Story Overview

At just eighteen, Marianne Lark is forced into an arranged marriage to Gideon Varrick, a wounded and heavyset war veteran known more for his scars than his smile. But on their wedding night, Gideon shatters every cruel expectation by offering not possession—but freedom. As Marianne enters the world of Dunridge House, she uncovers a web of deceit involving her uncle, a stolen veterans’ fund, and the Duke’s secret mission to rebuild broken lives.

Through quiet courage and unexpected partnership, Marianne and Gideon discover that love built on dignity and choice is stronger than any scandal Victorian society can whisper about.
