A Rogue by Any Other Name


Rogues to Riches #4
by Grace Burrowes

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

Another perfect addition to the romance world… I have just finished reading A Duke by Any Other Name by Grace Burrowes and I’m left with a goofy smile on my face ☺️!

In the fourth instalment of the Rogues to Rishes series we finally get an HEA for one of the Wentworth sisters, Althea! The sisters have been side characters for the run of the series thus far, but man, did Althea shine! She’s my new fictional BFF!

Althea Wentworth has decided to forego the London season this year after suppering through the last five. As the families easiest target she has been bullied since she hit the ballroom. She’s familiar with the torn hems, spilled drinks and trips she received and is hoping that in the smaller playing field of Yorkshire society she can achieve her dream: a husband and family of her own. Too bad she needs to get the resident reclusive duke to accept her and show her the hopes to make this dream come true. Thankfully she is a true Wentworth and not afraid of a challenge!

Nathaniel Rothmere, The Duke of Rothhave has secrets to hide and a unwelcoming demented and decrepit ancestral home to do it with. He can afford change and Althea is about to start making some big changes in the neighbourhood. Will Nathanial be able to adapt and follow his heart or will he keep that locked up in his crumbling home?

I have been loving this series from the beginning and A Duke by Any Other Name definitely held up to my regard! This story has a delightful forced meet cute, grumpy hero/ sunshine heroine, runaway hogs and haunted mansions! 



A Rogue by Any Other Name by Grace Burrowes is scheduled to release April 28th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Forever (Grand Central Publishing) through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

First off, this epic second chance romance gave me pure romantic chills that were remittent to reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion.

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 ...
