I've finished "The Duke's Perfect Wife" the book in her 4th book in her Mackenzie series by Jennifer Ashley.
Product Description
Lady Eleanor Ramsay is the only one who knows the truth about Hart Mackenzie. Once his fiancee, she is the sole woman to whom he could ever pour out his heart.
Hart has it all -- a dukedom, wealth, power, influence, whatever he desires. Every woman wants him -- his seductive skills are legendary. But Hart has sacrificed much to keep his brothers safe, first from their brutal father, and then from the world. He's also suffered loss -- his wife, his infant son, and the woman he loved with all his heart though he realized it too late.
Now, Eleanor has reappeared on Hart's doorstep, with scandalous nude photographs of Hart taken long ago. Intrigued by the challenge in her blue eyes -- and aroused by her charming, no-nonsense determination -- Hart wonders if his young love has come to ruin him . . . or save him.
Book Four of the Highland Pleasures (Mackenzies) series.

My Review:
Hart Mackenzie is a affluent widower duke who is well loved by his siblings and known for his love-making abilities but he feels lonely. He can have any female he wants except his beloved former fiancée Lady Eleanor Ramsey. She is the only person who knows what he sacrificed to keep his siblings safe from their abusive father.
Since the deaths of his wife and heir he has turned from a compassionate person to a frozen heart. Eleanor arrives from Glenarden near Aberdeen to offer Hart a business deal. She shows him a picture of himself naked someone sent to her and she offers to help him find the unknown villain before they send any to the scandal sheets. Hart agrees though he distrusts the motive of his only love as he assumes she seeks retribution for his treatment of her.
I really enjoyed the brother love that Hart and his brother Ian had for each other. Hart and Eleanor were such a great couple.
4/5
