This was funny, steamy, and surprisingly touching in parts! Just what you want from a historical romance. I really enjoyed this one.

Technically I believe this is my first historical romance and I absolutely loved it! It was fun and the banter between Emma and Ash the Duke was fantastic. 

This follows Emma who is a Seamstress and a vicars daughter. The Duke of Ashbury needs a wife and an heir. After seeing Emma standing in front of him in a wedding dress he confirms she will do. He has rules such as don’t talk about his scars, no lights or kissing in intimate moments and falling for each other. Emma is to produce and Heir and that’s it. But Emma has rules to such as have dinner with each other every night. But once he starts to open up Emma can’t stop falling. 

The banter these two had was so fantastic, quirky and swoony. I was laughing so much and when the spice hit I loved it even more. Also I’m a sucker for when a character has past injuries and are open about there insecurities. Emma was so supportive of the Duke due to this and it’s just so cute. I need to read more of Tessa Dare for sure

I want to give this 5 stars but it feels like 4 stars. This was awesome. Now I get why Ash is Viggo’s favorite historical romance hero. Also maybe why Ren curses in Shakespeare?? I’ll have to ask Chloe Liese.

I’m not giving this 5 stars because this was great but it’s not FOR me. Ash isn’t the kind of mmc/hero that I gravitate to. I thought the Davina and whole father storyline was really sweet. I have a feeling this is Tessa Dare’s love letter to her father.

This book was funny and I loved the banter between Ash and Emma. Also wwoooaaah very very hot. I’m learning that Tessa Dare books are racy, seductive, sensual, and all the other synonyms for sexy
