The Heiress Gets a Duke

The Heiress Gets a Duke


The Gilded Age Heiresses #1

by Harper St. George

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5


A romantic jaunt into he world of the Dollar Princesses of the Gilded Age!


The story opens with a dark insight into the world where American heiresses are sold to the British aristocracy all in the name of a title and social prestige.


After August Crenshaw witnesses the devastating match of her childhood friend to a Duke, she heeds her call a few months into the marriage to come visit her in England… 


August feels terrible for her friend, knowing that her family has the type of relationship where they would never dream of selling their daughters for titles. She is a respected and important part of her father’s iron business. 


All this is true until a destitute duke sets his sights on the Crenshaw heiresses. August will de anything to save her sister from a loveless future and in turn she catches the dukes attention for herself. August’s family all but hands her over to him with a sack of money!


All the while, Evan Stirling, our erstwhile duke, decides that he can and will change August’s mind and make her want to choose him. A kiss a day doesn’t hurt his odds!


I was worried when I started this book, that it would be less romance and more 19th century reality. I was pleasantly surprised when our heroine gets to London England and the hijinks begin! This enemies to lovers romance was a pure delight. 


A bonus to this story, were the quirky supporting characters of Evan’s best friend, the Earl of Leigh and August’s sister… I can’t wait for these two advisories to have their own story!


This was a great glitter and grit romance! 




The Heiress Gets a Duke by Harper St. George is scheduled to release January 26th, 2021.



I received a complimentary copy of this book from Berkley Publishing Group through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
