 OMG this was so freaking good. This is the 3rd book in the Girl Meets Duke series and by far my favorite so far. I read this whole book in a day. I had planned on reading it over a 2 day period but I was so sucked into the story that I couldn't stop reading it. These 2 have a different takes on the roles that women and men have in society during this time period and I loved that. Their chemistry is off the charts from the very beginning. There are a lot of animals in this book and a lot of times they bring the humor to the story because of the mischief they case the main characters to find themselves in. Both characters have traumatic pasts but they bring out the best in each other. I loved that this book didn't really have a 3rd act breakup. I guess you could say that it does but to me it didn't count as a break up. Honestly I just loved everything about this book and I can't wait for book 4 to be released. If I'm not mistaken I think that will be the final book in the series but I could be wrong about that.

4.5 rounded up because the last line startled a laugh out of me and Penny got shit done and helped many before finally being able to help herself and that's a great bottom line for these silly steamy romance novels.

I really enjoyed Gabriel, and I'm usually not a fan of couples getting it on before mariage (I like the tension, inappropriate flirting and slowburnish way of things) as usually they get feelings soooo quickly after that, but here it worked well!

This was so cute and adorable, although it did have its moments of heavier topics. The backstories of the characters was a bit heavier than the other characters in the series I believe.

Penny is just this ray of sunshine and joy despite things that happened in her past. She cares so deeply for those around her and her creatures. I loved reading about her. And she was the perfect foil to Gabriel’s undoing. They were so fun together right from the beginning. I really liked that we didn’t have to wait long to see them get together. And then of course he had to put up with her friends and their husbands (which the husbands were hilarious, they’d eventually became friends although I don’t think they’d ever say that, they ended up fighting over who would be the second in a duel).

This one might be my favorite out of the series.
