This was too long & it felt like there were too many plot lines, but I did really like the style so I'll be continuing with the series
CW: Sexual content, gun violence, death, grief, mental illness

I love a couple who have genuine respect for each other and direct conversations about issues that they face. And I love it when a POS villain gets what's coming to him >:) I'll definitely be looking forward to book 2!

Artemis is such a strong female lead, being a blue stocking (an intellectual or literary woman), who wants more than what life is willing to give her. And then she runs into the dastardly Duke, literally... and life will change as she knows it.
Artemis isn't willing to settle into the life of a house wife, as society expects; she wants to educate other women and to write her gothic-romance books. She will have you rooting for her all throughout this story!
Artemis comes up with an idea, a plan to make her dreams come true... and she needs the dastardly Duke to be the star performer to execute her plan. Oh that dastardly Duke... Dominic Winters leaks with confidence and passionate sensuality. Dominic also has his own agenda though: he must find a new wife and positive female influence for his teenage daughter and someone who will bear him an Heir.
I would highly suggest this book for fans of the Bridgerton series, specifically The Duke and I. This story is full of banter between the two main characters and hot, sweet passion.

Up All Night with a Good Duke is the first book in the "Byronic Book Club" series. This is the current series that this author is writing in which is about three women that are friends with each other and help each other in their motivations. I was first introduced to this author when I discovered the second book "Curled Up with an Earl" which is Lucy's book. In this installment we have Artemis and Dominic's story. We got to see them in Lucy's story and I just wanted their book so badly because you could tell how "together" this couple is. I think what I am discovering about this author is how "Utterly Charming" her writing style. There is something about Amy Rose Bennett that just works so well for me here.
Up All Night with a Good Duke is a story about our heroine, Artemis, who while working in a girl's finishing school, is called away by a letter by her friend to help with her navigating the London Season. So Artemis leaves and heads to London but on her journey she bumps into a stranger with whom she has a sizzling connection with and she would later discover that he is the Duke of Dartmoor. Dominic, is a widower and a single father of a teenager and he is at his wits ends in trying to figure out how to handle her. Dominic and Artemis come to a agreement that ends up in a fake marriage of convenience, but soon it becomes apparent that there is much more emotion building between them they just mere sexual attraction ....
Up All Night with a Good Duke was such a superb read and I had so much fun with this one here. I just couldn't seem to get enough of it. I was so endeared by this story. Now while reading this one I was distracted by some other things, so I wasn't fully focused on the story which probably contributed to my 4 star rating, but it was still such a charming read. And the writing style just had me so reminiscent of the classic style of HR. Even though the characters do seem a bit more modern at times, its not overblown at all and the way that they take accountability for their actions and try to communicate honestly and treat each other so decently has such a healthy perspective that is refreshing and I call on HR authors everywhere to follow this author and authors like Elisa Braden. If you are fans of Elisa Braden, I do think that you will really enjoy this one here.
If you are wanting more steam in your historical's then I definitely think this is an author you should look into. The way that she handles steam in her stories are very open and fun and sexy. I was so delighted every time our couple come together. Amy Rose Bennett definitely delivered such a solid romance that was packed with so much heart and smexy times to satisfy any romance reader!

I was captivated by Artemis and Dominic’s story. Their witty banter kept me entertained and the plot kept me turning pages well into the night. I enjoyed it so much I read it in one sitting.
