While the Duke Was Sleeping: The Rogue Files

Sophie Jordan

"Shop girl Poppy Fairchurch knows it's pointless fantasizing about the Duke of Autenberry. Still, dreams can't hurt anyone...unlike the carriage Poppy spies bearing down upon the unsuspecting duke. After she pulls him to safety, the duke lapses into a coma and Poppy is mistaken for his fiancâee. But one person isn't fooled: his arrogant and much too handsome half-brother, Struan Mackenzie. Soon Poppy isn't sure what she wants more...the fantasy of her duke or the reality of one smoldering Scot who challenges her at every turn."--Amazon.com.

Praise for this book

Praise for A Good Debutante's Guide to Ruin: "A fascinating twist on the class wars." - Eloisa James
"An intrepid heroine with a fierce protective streak and the well-to-do bastard son of a duke clash from their first meeting and keep the sparks flying. This sizzling holiday-tinged romance launches a new series with links to Jordan's popular 'Debutante Files' books." - Library Journal
"The comparison with the Sandra Bullock movie While You Were Sleeping is inevitable. James has taken the classic and put her own spin on the charming story....the sweetness and enchantment of the story remains with its snappy dialogue and set of engaging characters." - RT Book Reviews (4 1/2 stars)
"The novel hews very closely to the plot of its namesake film... but Jordan has added both disdain and heat to the familiar story. The complex characterization and eccentricities of Struan's relatives refreshingly diverge from typical portrayals of Regency gentry." - Publishers Weekly
