Who Wants for Marry a Duke

Duke Dynasty, Book 3

by Sabrina Jeffries

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

After reading about Thorn, Marlowe Drake, the Duke of Thornstock be as dukishly domineering as possible in the last instalment of the Duke Dynasty, while his sister finds romance… it was nice to see him loose that haughty air and find someone to be himself around.

After always being told that as a Duke to watch out for scheming mama and daughters, Thorne is enraged when he is caught in a kiss with the unique girl who assisted him with a stain on his jacket. He is even more insulted after he does the honourable thing, asking her to marry him and she turns him (A DUKE!) down!

Years later Thorn is shocked again to meet the same miss as she is introduced as the chemist hired by his brother to help investigate his brother’s fathers death.

Still not trusting her, Thorn is drawn to Olivia again… can he win her heart and her trust after the way he acted before?

As I started reading this book, I had very few hopes held out for Thorne redeeming himself, but as I read on, he was able to see his current and past mistakes and work at redeeming himself. Olivia I loved from the beginning. A woman of science and goal oriented, she never let the shine of a title distract her from her goals. The surprise character that ended up making an impression on me, was Olivia’s mother! She started off as a screaming and conniving mother only interested the best title for her daughter… but as the story develops, so do we learn more of her true intentions and she ends up being a try comfort to Olivia in the end.

I really enjoyed this book. The Duke Dynasty is tuning into a mystery caper, where the family is trying to find out the truth behind all the past dukes deaths. I am anxious to see where they git in the next instalment with Sherridans story.

Who Wants for Marry a Duke by Sabrina Jeffries is scheduled to release August 25th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Zebra, Kensington Book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

While investigating his lead he he discovers that his prime suspect died just days after the stage coach robbery and is the tow’s local hero… not only that, he has left behind a beautiful widow and 2 children. Ellie-May is no stranger to public scorn, as the daughter of an outlaw , she knows what the Rangers accusations against her deceased husband will do to her family and children. For the sake of her family, she will do anything to protect them and that includes keeping secrets and resisting the Rangers charms! This was fun story. I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me! ...
