“I love Leigh D’ansey’s lively style of writing. She has created a delightful novel with strong characters. The dialogue and vivid descriptions race off the page, telling the story, pulling the reader into the world of these times, edging ever closer to a very satisfactory ending. A grand read and I highly recommend it.” – Deryn Pittar – five star review.
“Unputdownable. Loved it, all the characters truly come to life, some of them likeable, some not so much, all believable. Austen with steamy bits. A great read. Can’t wait for book 3.” – Victoria Mousley
“Supporting – or thwarting – the rocky path to true love is a wonderful cast of secondary characters who all add richness and detail to the story. The tension builds, and just as this reader was in despair that the star-crossed lovers would never find their happy-ever-after, the clever author provided an ending well worth waiting for. Highly recommended as a sexy read.” – Cherie le Clare

Or has the Duke met his match?!
