Never Kiss a Duke


Book Review

Never Kiss a Duke
By Megan Frampton

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
What is a duke to do when he no longer is a duke???

Sebastian has just been informed that his whole life is a lie... he is no longer the Duke (that’s now his cousin) and he is a bastard. Learning that this is all due to his mother’s manipulations he vows to not accept the charity of friends and family and to man something of himself in his own...

Ivy has had the luck of the cards determine her fate from day one. First her father gambles away her freedom and then with another game she wins her freedom! Gambling is her destiny, so why not embrace it and open her own gaming club??? 

Sebastian and Ivy come together after the moping former Duke comes to her club to forget his change in circumstances for a night... there’s immediate sparks ✨ until Sebastian opens his formerly privileged mouth and almost runs off her customers!!🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Can he make it up to her (and make himself into a new man) with his big ideas to promote the club?? Ivy is willing to give it a gamble🎲😁!

This was a fun read and I liked how the characters transformations made them into better versions of themselves for themselves- not changing to be what someone else wants. The side characters were intriguing and I’m invested in how the rest of this dukely trio finds their HEA❤️!!!

Never Kiss a Duke by Megan Frampton is scheduled to release January 28th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Harper Collins, Avon Romance through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Remember Love

Remember Love Ravenswood series, Book 1 by Mary Balogh ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Historical romance queen, Mary Balogh introduces us to another brilliant extended family and reminds up to remember love in one swoop with this series opener! First off, this epic second chance romance gave me pure romantic chills that were remittent to reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Her beautiful storytelling and detailed descriptions and character building really immersed me into this story and made me root for second chances and love!

White Knight Needed

White Knight Needed Reluctant Heroes, Book 2 by Betina Krahn ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Barclay Howard is bigger and burlier than your average gentleman… and thus he has found himself to be somewhat of an antidote to the fairer sex. As a result he is more often found behind the pages of his Ivanhoe novel than out and about attempting to court a fair lady. But when his path crosses with down on her luck Norah Capshaw, his white knight complex rises up to make him go above and beyond again and again to be her hero… even though she is incredibly reluctant to the idea! This was a fun adventure romance filled with roadside hijinks, and a family mystery. Barclay was a perfect hero in this book. He was always there offering support and rescue to Norah. On the other side Norah’s resistance of Barclay and his efforts was the only wet blanket on this otherwise delightfully sweet romance!   Overall, this is my second Betina Kran book and I find her writing very light hearted and action packed. De...

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...
