The Duke's Virgin

Rate this book
Now that I’ve graduated, Mother expects me to find a husband. Of course, someone to her standards. But after witnessing my parents’ marriage, the most I hope for is someone I can tolerate touching me. People call me an ice queen, but it’s only because I’m shy and guarded. I hide behind a mask.

Stacia Haden is New York high society and suppresses anything that reflects poorly on her family. Until she meets Luka Hahn at a Formula 1 race in Monaco and mistakes him for an auto mechanic. Magnetically drawn to him, she realizes this trip, far from home, would be the perfect place to lose her virginity. Little does she know her life is about to spin out of control as she learns Luka is not a mechanic, but a Hereditary Grand Duke, the next ruler of Luxembourg.

On a visit with her cousin Aeric the Prince of Monaco Stacia meets a handsome man at a Formula One car race. Stacia believes him to be the mechanic for the racing car. Later they meet at her cousins party where she decides to give him her virginity. Stacia is in for a big surprise when she attends a Royal party with her cousin Aeric. Luca His Highness Grand Prince of Luxembourg is really the Heir to the throne.

Stacia is from a Royal lineage but she doesn't have a title. Her father and Mother are very rich billionaires in there own right and so is Scatia. She should have been lady Stacia her mother is the younger sister to Aeric's mother who is a Queen. The couple was apart more then together. The story moves fast enough and I really liked both Stacia and Luca. I liked the fact that Scatia was not a poor working girl who meet a Prince. I wished more time was spent on the ending with the wedding and having there baby. I would have liked to seen her parents eating a little crow after the way they treated her. There was a lot that could have been done with this story that wasn't.

Overall its an Okay Story!!

Another book I DNF. Another book of "skimmed pages" b/c of way to many pages of descriptive sex. Page after page after page after page...... And that is saying it lightly.

I stopped reading about 44%. About 30% the heroine realized the man she slept with was a Duke. The revelation was not all that exciting and pretty boring.

Alot of inner monologue. The heroine's inner monologue was a constant repeat of why she ignored her parents phone calls and how they nag her to find "that someone."
The hero's inner monologue was just stupid stuff. I don't even remember.

The title is The Duke's Virgin but yet she gave that up in secs and nothing really was spoken about it. The heroine may have said that she was and he may have gone gentle. but that was all it.. So to me, the title doesn't fit at all.

Dual POV. Can't recommend.

It's been a while since a book makes me go to bed at 3am because I don't want to put it down. This book was dirty and delicious. With the right amount of drama and complications to keep you excited.

I really liked the timeline, it made it feel realistic. And I really liked that Stacia is a well rounded down to earth human being despite her upbringing. She is timid, honest and reserved but she has a fire in her waiting to be lit. And after Luka burns the castle down with her fire there is no going back. He is the THE match for that fire. Everything that comes out of Luka's mouth is pure desire, every word drips lust and not just because he wants to bend her over but because with her he feels like he can let loose. Like he can breath without so much weight on his shoulders. Until he puts his foot in his mouth and has to make it right. And boy did he! It becomes a shock to you as a reader how nasty he can become but then later, who doesn't love a groveling man! I enjoyed this book immensely from beginning to end.

Stacia has finished her masters and now her mother & father are pushing her to find an acceptable husband. Instead of dealing with her parents, she escapes to her cousin, who happens to be the hereditary heir in Monaco. Once there she accompanies him on a couple of his appearances and sees a man that makes her all warm inside. This is a new feeling for her. She has never had this reaction to a guy. She has decided that while she is in Europe she also finally going to lose her V-card. Little does she know that the guy she picks just happens to be royalty as well. He is looking for a little anonymity and doesn't tell Stacia who he really is. The chemistry between them though is beyond steamy and the attraction is electric. This is a very well written book with good character development and a story line that keeps you reading until the middle of the night. Well done. Enjoy.

I loved this book. I’d definitely give it 5+ sta s if I could. I’m a huge fan of M.S. Parker and this one had me absolutely hooked from the first page until the last. “The Duke’s Virgin” tells the story of Stacia, young and innocent heiress with a strained relationship with her parents, and Luka, next in line to the throne of Luxembourg. They meet when Stacia visits her cousin Aeric , the Hereditary Prince of Monaco. It’s a story full of twists and turns, an terrific plot. The storyline progresses logically and the characters are realistic and very likeable. I’m not going to give any more details, but rest assured I’m absolutely positive you’ll love this story as much as I did. What are you waiting for? Check it out now, you won’t regret it.

Will Stacia be acceptable to Luka
This is my 10th book by the author and I love books written in dual point of view. Stacia is tired of her mother wanting her to marry, so to escape she visits her cousin in Europe as his date to an engagement party. Luka’s younger brother is engaged, and also feels the pressure from his parents to marry as the crown prince. Stacia assumes Luka is a mechanic when they have their one night stand. When Stacia learns Luka’s identity, she knows there is no future for them. Yet when they run into one another again, neither can stay apart. Luka shows no interest in Stacia, but how will Luka react when Stacia tells her secret? You have to read to find out and won’t put the book down until you turn the last page.

I found this to be a superb storyline that grabs you right from the start keeping you engrossed and on edge throughout the whole book!
Great characters that will keep your interest extremely well. The chemistry, sweetness, and twists in plot kept things interesting. Add in drama and steamy passion and you have a good read.
All-in-all, you wouldn't be reading reviews if you weren't intrigued by the blurb, so I'll stick with what you need to know:
You’ll find plenty of toe curling steaminess with a laugh or two along the way, and smile on your face from their happily ever after. No cliffy, no cheating.

This book has it all....from hot race car drivers to royalty upon royalty...and don't forget the virgin at the heart of the whole story.

Stacia story was just amazing, I really loved watching her become the women that she was meant to be instead of the women that her parents wanted her to be. The way that Stacia stands up is empowering for all women who stand back and hide in the background.

Then we have the Duke who steals Stacia's heart, Luka, I am so in love with him and would really like one of him of my own. The strong relationship that forms between Stacia and Luka will warm your heart.

Floved this book and hoping there will be more books in the series.

If you like fairy tales with prince and princess then you will love this story. Right from the start you get the feel for who Stacia really is. Her mother and father are rich and expect certain things from her. But Stacia, will do what she wants.

They both have a sizzling one night only to meet again, they both think that they can forget about each other. But in life things happen can they patch up, they really are meant to be together.
Definately worth 5 plus stars another wonderly hot erotic romance from M S Parker

This classic romance - boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy apologizes and wins girl back - is chock full of all kinds of royalty; Grand Dukes, Hereditary Dukes, Princes and Princesses. Luka and Stacia the main focus of this story. A casual encounter without last names exchanged turns into so much more. He's charming, seductive and then he's a jerk. Not once but several times. Stacia comes across as aloof but she is in fact shy and uncomfortable in large groups. When she decides to explire her wild side she gets more than she bargained for. It all works out to an HEA but not before betrayals and deeply hurt feelings.

Money, Marriage or Love?

Young and inexperienced, Stacia wants the space and freedom to make choices on her life based on what she wants not on what society dictates. While visiting with family across the pond she decides to take a leap of faith and engage in a one night stand. Much to her embarrassment the person she chooses is not really who she thought they were and now he doesn’t quite want to officially claim her nor does he want to leave her alone. Extremely well written, captivating and worth the read.

Great second book

Another good hot read in this series. Stacia a very wealthy young heiress to a top financier from New York, her parents especially her mother desperately trying to marry her off to someone of the correct status and she not interested being a quiet reserved intelligent person. Luka a rich heir to the duchy of Luxemburg and avid car racing fan, these two meet and sparks fly and she gives him her virginity not realising who he is. Their relationship goes through various trials and tribulations but as they say love conquers all. A good enchanting read.

Fate Overcomes One and Done

Luka Hahn, next in line to rule the duchy of Luxembourg connects with American heiress, Stacia Haden. Stacia was visiting her first cousin, Aeric, who is the Crown Prince of Monaco. Stacia and Luka had first met earlier that day at a Formula 1 auto race, while Luka was helping with the car he sponsored, driven by his best friend, American driver Emmet Finch. Stacia mistakenly believed Luka to be a mechanic on Emmet's team and had felt an instant attraction to him. When she saw Luka again at Aeric's party later that night, she thought he might be the perfect person to take her virginity, as she would likely never see him again after that night.

Well, both Stacia and Luka learn that one and done is not their fate and strong feelings begin to develop. Many complications follow, due to circumstances both in and out of their control, resulting in devastating consequences.

Although this storyline is one I've read before, at least to some degree, it was very well described and developed in this book. I truly enjoyed it and connected with many of the characters, which is always a plus for me with any book. I highly recommend it.

🔥🔥

I won’t assign stars to this as it’s my first book by this author. It was well written and technically there wasn’t anything wrong with it, maybe too much monologue between the dialogue. The smut scenes were hot and spicy. I just didn’t enjoy the main characters. The secondary characters were much more interesting, and I was secretly shipping the heroine and her cousin Aeric, who seemed to have more chemistry than then the MCs.

The hero was an egotistical jerk who repeatedly slept with the h and then gave her the cold shoulder because she was beneath him. The heroine repeatedly slept with the H because of BBS and she figured why not, I won’t see him again. But they keep running into each other.

The H basically apologizes for being an ass when he learns she’s pregnant, proposes marriage and all is well. Nothing wrong with the book, and I’ll try another one by this author, I just didn’t like either of the characters especially the hero or the lack of any real grovel.

Stacia is a New York heiress. Her parents have high standards on who she marries that will benefit the family’s name and social standings. However, Stacia is done with being controlled by her parents and visits her cousin in Monaco where she decides to find a suitable person to give her virginity to. She sees Luka at a formula1 race and then later at a party at her cousins, she thinks he’s a mechanics or crew member. Luka has been unable to keep himself from looking at Stacia at the track and party. Unbeknownst to her he is the hereditary Grand Duke of Luxembourg. He thinks he’s one of the groupies and gives into temptation. He never would’ve believed royal blood runs through her veins or he’d have stayed away. Or would he? This was a great read, I enjoyed their story.

What a ride! This story is gripping from the beginning to the end. It has so much drama that it tingles on the edge of suspense. It is so captivating as the story plays out. The descriptions are so life like that you just easily picture what is going on in you head. The characters are extremely well developed and their personalities fit their descriptions to the letter. It has hot, steamy romance that will have you fanning yourself and saying lord I wish that was mine. LOL. It is an amazing story that just has to be read.

This book started out slow for me, I'm not a fan of Prince/Princess stories. However, because I've read most every one of M.S. Parker's book, I trusted that it would get better and of course, it did not disappoint!

Stacia has graduated with a master's degree and her mom has turned up the heat on the "when are you getting married" fire. She meets Luka and sparks fly, maybe she can rid herself of that V card and get the marriage that her mom has been pushing for all in one swoop!

I was happy to see Stacia finally grow up from under her mom's marital eye! Great story!

This book was off the chart, the strength of the writing pull me into the story and would not let me go until the last page. There was so just heartache that I wanted to cry because life just was not fair for the leading lady in this story. There were times that I really hated how unfairly she was treated, not only by her parents but by the man that she fell in love with.I

This book was written with dual POV for the enjoyment of the readers.

Okay read but missing parts..

The idea of a fairytale love story romance storyline was okay. Except there were repetitive dialogues being said from both characters pov. Some missing parts was passed over. The part where the h called another women to get over the heroine was not even discussed on what happened afterwards or the parents reaction to the mc engagement. It felt liked the author decided to discussed the friend gayism in details instead and just rushed the ending instead.

This is the story of Luka & Stacie.  This is the second book in the Filthy Rich Royals Series.  Luka is to become the Duke, and is supposed to marry a Royal.  Stacie's family is wealthy, and her cousin is to become a Prince.  When Stacie meets Luka she doesn't know that he is to become a Duke.  They see each other by chance a few times after that because her cousin and Duke socialize in the same circles.  The story line is great.  Lots of steam in this story.  You won't be able to put this book down once you've started it.

horrible ending!

Where’s your pride girl? Dang! I was hoping for a good grovelling but sad to say, the heroine is more concerned with her libido than the fact that the hero has humiliated and bili tyke her and was such a freaking douche! This makes me really angry. Seriously? Who forgives someone that easily after all the heartaches. Didn’t even waited for a day. I’m sorry but it’s a one star for me. I’ll give half a start if I can. Waste of my freaking time reading this rubbish!

Empowering! Following Stacia’s transformation from a shy girl to a passionate woman made me her biggest cheerleader. It’s difficult to be who you want and to go after your dreams. Moreover, it seemed that fate continued to bring her Luka. Loved the chemistry and the family dynamics.

MS Parker continues to bring me to my happy place. Her writing is phenomenal and I absolutely love her characters! This can be read as a complete standalone! Enjoy!

This is a love story that has some very hot scenes so it is not sickeningly sweet in any way. Luka is royalty and Stacia is an American princess. Their courtship is not all smooth sailing and trust is hard to give. Set against the backdrop of F1 because of Lukas’s best friend Emmett, a driver that Luka sponsors, a who plays a pivotal role in their eventual happy ending, there are moments of sadness, but like all good romances, they are overcome and there is a HEA.

Who just never know who you’ll meet

M.S Parker delivers a spectacular story. Stacia is known as the American ice princess and Luka is a duke. They’re attraction to each other is thick with need and when they give in the sparks fly. They keep thinking that it’s the last time and his pride causes a rift each time they part. Can Luka beg for forgiveness after he crushes everything they have when he throws multiple insults her way.

I've read several books written by M.S. Parker; she has done a great job at writing a fantastic book; she is becoming one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of books her books.

The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.

I loved the chemistry between the characters.

A really amazing read! It is well-written, consistent, and moves at a brisk pace. From start to finish I was captivated with the overall story line that is well developed and emotionally deep. The characters are very interesting and the chemistry between them is intense. It is a very exciting read and comes highly recommended.

Get your tissues ready. You'll need them for this fantastically hot standalone romance. Luka is a stubborn royal. Stacia's parents are selfish and uncaring unless it effects their status causing her to shy away from socializing. She is nicknamed Ice Princess for that reason. Chance has Luka and Stacia meeting and their chemistry is off the charts.
The writing will keep you engaged and guessing. I had a hard time putting it down. Told in both Luka and Stacia's POV.
