The Reluctant Duchess by Roseanna M. White

This is the second book in the Ladies Of The Manor series. While I have not read the first book this one was easy to follow and the reader does not get lost because they didn't read the first book. Each book stands on it's own and can either be read in order or not.

Lady Rowena has a problem. A big one. Her father wants her to marry a man who will take over his passion for preserving their Highland heritage. After an attack by said man Rowena wants nothing to do with him. What is she to do?

What happens next and throughout the rest of the book kept me turning pages late into the night. Every time I thought I was at a stopping place something else happened to keep me reading.

I loved the authors attention to detail and she brought the history to life in a way that enhanced the story but did not feel like a history lesson. As for the Duke - oh my! Ladies, you will swoon!

I cannot wait to read the next book in this series and see what happens next. While I am waiting I will go back and read the first book. If you love historical fiction you will love this book. I highly recommend it!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
