I love light-hearted reads for the most part. I am over loads of drama in my stories and that is why I love to read historical romances, especially those authors that love to share romance and love. The buildup and emotion is the best part of a romance!
Check out this upcoming romance that offers delightful twists and sweet engagements. Read the review below.
Four Weddings and a Duke by Michelle McLean
Publisher: Entangled: Amara
Publication Date: May 23, 2023
ISBN-13: 978-1649373298
OVERVIEW:
As the middle―and least marriageable―sister in a bevy of swans, Lavinia Wynnburn is quite content being the odd duck out. This way, she’s free to commit social faux pas without anyone much noticing. Until the Duke of Beaubrooke turns up the morning after a ball, asking for her hand in marriage.
Alexander Reddington doesn’t particularly care for social niceties, nor is he particularly good at them. But now that the spare has become the heir, he must marry…and soon. When he stumbles into the same corner as a socially awkward wallflower, he knows he’s found the perfect wife: one who won’t bother him to attend every simpering event of the season.
Only, Alexander’s shy and pretty new wife is finding her new position surprisingly exciting and keeps accepting every invitation that flutters past their door. And worse luck, he might even be falling for her. Now he must hide the truth about why he really proposed…before his unexpectedly happy marriage is dashed to pieces.
Four Weddings and a Duke by Michelle McLean Review
This story was a delightful surprise. It is fresh and unique with characters that are out of the element and the norm of society!
This is the second book I have read by this author and I was excited that she allows her imagination to roam.
What would normally be droll and boring characters come alive in Four Weddings and a Duke. Unexpected and fun, cranky and focused, sweet and endearing. The author hits all of the notes in this one.
I especially love the deep connection between the two, the unabashed steam, and the “daring” displays of affection at the end! These made the difference in this romance!
