Should have ended after the couple got together. Everly or whatever his name is gets gaslighty and gross in the second half.

This is the best regency romance I've read in a long time it had so much drama and it wasn't solely focused on The Love story which was so refreshing from the other ones I've read 10 out of 10 recommend it

I am in my historical romance bagggg!!! I loved this so much. It’s exactly the story I needed.

It is truly right to say that fans of bridgerton will love this book because it gave me the same feel. I loved the rush of adrenaline I got when the book was reaching its climax. I wanted more of Aphrodite and The Duke.

Perfect perfect perfect.
