As far as William Easton―the Duke of Blackheath―is concerned, love can go to the devil. Why would a man need passion when he has wealth, a stately home, and work to occupy his mind? But no one warned the duke that a fiery and frustratingly strong-willed activist like Lady Beatrice Haven can also be a stunning, dark-haired siren who tempts a man’s mind, body, and soul.
Lady Beatrice is determined to never marry. Ever. She would much rather fight for the rights of women and provoke the darkly handsome Duke of Blackheath, even if he does claim to be forward-thinking. After all, dukes―even gorgeous ones―are the enemy. So why does she feel such enjoyment from their heated exchanges?
But everything changes when Beatrice finds herself suddenly without fortune, a husband, or even a home. Now her future depends on the very man who sets her blood boiling. Because in order to protect his esteemed rival, the Duke of Blackheath has asked for Beatrice’s hand, inviting his once-enemy into his home...and his bed.
My Review
My rating: 4 of 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I really enjoyed the banter between Beatrice and William. I also enjoyed the scenes involving his brothers they added a light-heartedness when William is feeling glum.
Lady Beatrice is looking forward to confronting William, the Duke of Blackheath. She has sent him letter after letter expressing her concerns for the rights of women. But she is warned by her uncle and cousin to be on her best behavior.
Even though William has agreed silently with Lady Beatrice's concerns about women's rights, he's never reached out. When they finally meet is shocked that the fiery lady is also a stunning beauty.
William has sworn off love and Beatrice never plans to marry.
The sudden loss of her fortune means she must now seek marriage. It pains her to know that she doesn't have the skills to support herself. So imagine her surprise when the Duke offers to marry her.
Thank you so much to the author, Entangled, and NetGalley for this ARC to review.
