His wife vanished in a snowstorm.Now Gabriel Northcote has her back for Christmas—she just doesn’t remember he exists.Three years ago on Christmas Eve, the Duchess of Somerset walked out into a blizzard and never came back.Society called it a tragedy. Gabriel Northcote called it the end of his world.He closed the doors of Somerset Manor, let dust settle where laughter used to live, and learned to live with the echo of a wife he could not bury.Then a letter arrives from a country convent about a nameless healer found in a storm with no memory and a familiar face.Gabriel goes to see for himself.He finds his missing duchess.Leonor remembers herbs, prayers, and quiet corridors. She does not remember vows, titles, or the duke who looks at her as if she’s a miracle and a knife in his heart at the same time. The grand, shuttered manor he brings her back to feels like a stranger’s mausoleum—full of portraits of a smiling woman she is supposed to have been.The ring on her finger says she’s his wife.Her mind says otherwise.As Christmas draws near, husband and wife move like polite strangers through a house that knows them better than they know themselves. There is a locked room no one will discuss, a grave in the snow the servants avoid, and a question Leonor cannot stop asking:What happened the night she walked into the storm and never came home?When another blizzard rises on Christmas Eve, secrets, grief and love collide in a snowbound chapel, a graveyard, and a Twelfth Night ball where the past finally refuses to stay buried.The Duke’s Missing Duchess is a winter-wrapped second chance romance with a soft, steadfast duke, a broken duchess learning to choose herself—and him—again, and a heartwarming ending for readers who love gentle heroes, quiet angst, and historical love stories that feel like coming home.
