Arrogant, widowed duke with five children, including troublesome twin daughters, is fascinated by a young woman who has given up on men because of something nasty in her past. Not very good. ( )

A traditional regency romance with serious issues addressed about women and parenting amongst the aristocracy. Duke of Severn was a secondary character in The Singular Miss Carrington who caught my interest so I read his story about his romance with Juliet. I did like the first book but liked this one more that dealt with an older couple who had life experiences which they had to conquer to form their relationship, would reccommend. ( )
