An Inconvenient Duke

An Inconvenient Duke

(Lords of the Armory #1)

by Anna Harrington

⭐⭐⭐💫/5

Danielle has been keeping secrets and now her deceased bast friends brother is back in London looking for answers. Will she be able to give him the answers he’s looking for or will she accidentally give him her heart in the bargain!

Marcus Braddock, now the Duke of Hampton has returned from the war as a hero. Yet, this hero can’t rest until he finds out the truth about the mysterious death of his sister that occurred two years ago, while he was at war. The most logical place to start looking for the truth is with his sisters elusive best friend… she seems to know more that she is will to share…

I enjoyed this story at about the half way point… until then I was finding the story a little slow and hard to keep my interest. BUT- as I say, once Marcus and Danielle kick into high gear investigating and romancing this story perked up! I was really glad I heard on until the end, because it was pretty exciting and peeked my interest in the next instalment in this series.

An Inconvenient Duke by Anna Harrington released February 25, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this first chapter from Sourcebooks Casablanca through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
