Not Even for a Duke

Wallflowers of West Lane, Book 4

by A. S. Fenichel

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

A delightful wrap-up to a fun series!

This final book of the Wallflowers of West Lane series gives us readers the story and HEA we have all been waiting for; Aurora Sherbourn’s story! Aurora may not have stated the Wallflowers group, but her tragic first marriage definitely inspired them to gang together in the search for love to ensure their matches are happy ones.

(Trigger) Aurora’s arranged marriage was pretty much a death sentence of daily physical abuse, until fate ended it all with the accidental death of her husband- pretty much saving her life. Now she is independent and never plans to put herself in that position again…

The new Duke of Corwin, Garrett Winslow, Aurora’s childhood friend is back in the country and reunited with his Wallflower friends. Soon sparks start up between him and Aurora, whom he has always loved… but she is adamant that she won’t marry again. What is a Duke to do?

I absolutely loved Garret and his kind attentions to Aurora, as a reader of the entire series, he is the perfect match for her. This was an emotional read getting more background on Aurora’s prior marriage and I appreciated the sensitivity and the lended to the courtship and the emotional journey for Aurora in accepting love.

I really enjoyed the finality of this book for the series and the inclusion of all the other Wallflowers and their spouses. Very satisfying!

Not Even for a Duke by A. S. Fenichel is scheduled to release September 14th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from author A. S. Fenichel. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
