“Lush, beautifully written, and deeply romantic, My Darling Duke will sweep you off your feet. My heart was lost to this couple from the very start.” —Amalie Howard, author of The Beast of Beswick Miss Katherine Danvers has always been a wallflower. But now, with her family on the brink of financial ruin, she finds herself a desperate wallflower. To save her family, she’ll do anything. Luckily, she has the perfect plan... She’ll impress the ton by simply announcing she is engaged to the reclusive and mysterious Duke of Thornton, Alexander Masters, and secure strong matches for her sisters. No one has heard from the duke in years. Surely he’ll never find out before her sisters’ weddings, and she can go back to her own quiet life. Soon, though, everything is out of control. At first, it’s just a few new ball gowns on the duke’s accounts. Then, it’s interviews with reporters eager for gossip. Before she knows it, Katherine has transformed herself into Kitty Danvers, charming and clever belle of the ton—with everyone eager to meet her thankfully absent fiancé. But when the enigmatic Alexander Masters suddenly arrives in the city, dashing and oh so angry, he demands retribution. Except not in the way Katherine expected...

OKAY STACY!! Historical romance that isn't puritanical, we love to see it. Leading man has a tragical story and man, it hurt my heart. But love heals all wounds! Like, literally all. Read the book and you'll know what I mean lol
I suppose it was a fun time? In all honesty, it's been about a week since I finished this book and I can't remember a single thing about it.
1.75/5
It was so bad. And it started out amazing!! I had such high hopes!
Unfortunately there's a suspension of disbelief - and then there's this book where inaccuracy punches you in the face with every sentence you read and there's no avoiding it.
I mean how can a paralyzed - or semi paralyzed man - ride horses or climb trees or climb stairs?? And waltz?? Hello?? And he rode his horse for 4 days at least from London to Scotland oh come on!!
And of course at the end there was a miracle fix?? I guess?? He suddenly went hard which was not possible and then what was that in the epilogue? Is he okay? Is he able to walk without using a wheelchair??? I mean what the heck is going on if he can have back to back sex with her with no pain at all??
Just... It was so bad. By the middle of the book I just wanted to be done. The writing was bad and the plot was even worse.
