I love when the book is better! Just so many more details then a tv show or movie. But this book idk if I’d say it’s better or not. There are ALOT more details, & I loved reading them. & the storyline was different then the show, & I still loved the storyline. But what I do not like is Anthony’s personality in the first half of the book. He was very much an asshole. He shows very little respect for any women who he might make his wife, planning to have a mistress & all; I really was not a fan of his personality, I’m glad they died it down in the show, I mean he could be an ass at first, especially to Kate, but he wasn’t an asshole. I’m glad I only have 2 books to compare to the show, hopefully I’ll read the rest of the series before their seasons come out, & I won’t be comparing them to eachother anymore. 🤞🏻

Definitely not as good as The Duke & I, but it was still entertaining and interesting.

First reading star rating: 3.5
Reread star rating: 4.5
Second reread star rating: 5

Loved it WAY more the second time around. The only thing I wish is that it had had more moments between the families (I.e. Eloise with Edwina, etc.) because I feel like that would just make it absolutely perfect for me.

Second reread: Loved it even more. It’s definitely a book that grows on you, but I think it might be my ideal romance. ❤️
