Really all you need to say is a reluctant Duke & a strong-willed Regency era woman and I am already a fan.
Add in some excellent side characters, beautiful writing, and it‘s a contender for favorite romance of the year 😻

Lord Peter wants guardianship of his younger half-siblings, but the judge hearing his case dislikes him. Lady Selina, a friend who is excellent at fixing things, organizing, and general problem solving, suggests that Peter (who is American and inherited his title) marry well into English society, to make himself more agreeable to the judge.

I found a used bookstore in the next town over. They also have a few new books too. And they‘ll take donations or you can get store credit. So I‘m super excited that I checked it out because I need to go through my books and get rid of some.
Picked these 2 up!

I really enjoyed this book. I particularly liked Georgiana and hope I can read more about her in future books.
