A Wicked Bargin For the Duke

A Hazard of Dukes Novel Book #2

by Megan Frampton

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

In order to protect her sister from the extremely regimented new Duke of Hasford, Lavinia throws herself between the duke and her sister at every turn… that is until she throws herself too hard and ends up finding herself in a compromising situation with the destardly duke!

Now Thaddeus, the Duke of Hasford has to do the right thing and marry Lavinia when all he wanted was the quite and meek sister Jane- not the firecracker Lavinia!

This was a lot of fun seeing Lavinia and Thanddius maneuver their marriage of inconvenience until they can get an heir for the the dukedom. These two are hilarious in their similarities- they are both big list makers and planners… and that’s how they come to making a list of activities that the marriage will consist of and what will happen upon the completion of their objective!

I loved watching these two characters with obvious sparks come together physically and learn about each other and eventually fall in love! This book gave me big The Viscount and Me Vibes with Lavinia protecting her sister in order for her to have her true love!

This is my favourite of the Hazard of Dukes series so far! I can’t wait for Lavinia’s sister Jane to get her story!

A Wicked Bargain For the Duke by Megan Frampton is scheduled to release April 27th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from HarperCollins Publishers, Avon Books through Edelweiss+. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
