Stars: 3.5 x 5
Author: Suzanne Enoch
Publisher: Griffin
Thank you @netgalley for this ARC
Michael Blumley is the Duke of Loriton. He is not interested in any type of Society outings or forays. What he wants is his to focus his time on his science projects with electricity and hydrogen experiments. Michael is a loving nephew. He agrees to care for and walk for his aunt’s dog Lancelot. He is that “absent-minded professor” as a the first day he was walking Lancelot he walked right into a pond.
Elizabeth Dockering aka ”Bitsy” is a lovely debutante who is spending another season in London. She has a dog names Galahad. It so happens that during Michael and Lancelot’s first walk he meets Bitsy and Galahad. Both Lancelot and Galahad are both black poodles. The end being mixed up and each goes home with the wrong owner. Michael ends up realizing he had the wrong dog. He heads over to Bitsy’s to return Galahad and get Lancelot but Lancelot has been kidnapped.
Michael and Bitsy end up working together to get Lancelot back.. As the two of them get to know each other, Michael realizes Bitsy is smarter then she appears.
The story of the two them looking for Lancelot is just funny and chaotic. They both end up realizing that their may be more to their relationship then they they were expecting. Will they find Lancelot and will they go from friends to lovers?
I enjoyed this historical comedic romance. The story is filled with sweet characters that are amusing and colorful plus it is a delightful read.

Every Duke Had His Day is a romantic comedy full of dogs!!
The story is cute, with the main characters being adorable and complementing each other, while their romance is slowly blooming. The main plot, with the dogs and the mix ups was funny and interesting to follow as well.
Finally, the narration of the audiobook was enjoyable. The author also did a great job handling her POVs and the progress of the plot, while keeping things light and fun.

Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for granting me access to this book in exchange for an honest review.
What a cute, fun and wholesome historical romance that revolves around a dognapping!! This is my first read by Suzanne Enoch and it will not be my last! I literally could not put it down! The author has a way of making you feel so connected to the characters and I found myself rooting for Michael and Elizabeth. I loved this book so much and highly recommend 💜!!!
3.5 stars rounded up to 4

Disclaimer: I received a review copy for free via NetGalley, and am voluntarily leaving my honest thoughts. Many thanks to the publisher, St. Martin's Press, for the opportunity!
4.5 rounded up. This is my first read from Enoch, but I loved how easy it was to jump right into it. I really enjoyed how Duke Woriton was a nice grumpy MMC and that Elizabeth was a great FMC who was both adorable and it made sense why she was such a popular gal. Their meet cute definitely gave me 101 Dalmatians vibes which I ADORED, and I loved that this had so many different POVs to follow! Jimmy and Sally's romance as the secondary couple really stole the show for me, and the dognapping shenanigans was a fun plot to navigate through. Honestly, the chemistry between Bitsy and Michael wasn't as strong to me as Jimmy/Sally, but it was still great! On top of that, I actually loved Peter as a villain and it is kind of a shame he was the way he was as his dedication to try to win over Bitsy was definitely...a bit admirable, tbh.

I adored this book. I loved the Bringing Up Baby influences, I loved the main characters’ relationship and how they evolved as people, I loved Jimmy and Sally, and I loved the dogs. It’s not easy to pull off a plot line with dognappings—who wants to read about dogs being in danger? But Ms. Enoch did it and even made the dognapper a likable character. This book was full of humor and heart, and the real villain of the piece got his just rewards. The epilogue was just the icing on the cake. I smiled the entire time I read this book; it was the most delightful romance I’ve read in a while. Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the eARC; all opinions are my own.

This was a super fun historical romance read.I was immersed into this book from the start and I and the plot is just so entertaining. My favorite part would have to be the character development throughout the book. If you enjoy historical romance, recommend this book!
A special thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press & Wednesday Books for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
