The Duke Meets His Match by Karen Tuft
5.0
Susan Jennings isn't your typical regency protagonist. For one, she is firmly on the shelf at age 30. It's refreshing to see a well-written character above the age of 20 in a regency novel. Most of the time you read about girls who have seen a season or two and think they will never find love. Susan isn't like that, she is content with her situation knowing that her family will never force her to marry if she cannot respect the gentleman.
Her life completely changes where her "fairy godmother," Lady Walmsley, takes her to London, gives her a makeover (to highlight what was already there), and helps her gain confidence not only in her intelligence but in her inner and outer beauty.
Despite learning his heir is a criminal, George Kendell, Duke of Aylesham feels no need or pressure to marry-until Prinny decides to reward him for his actions for the crown. Unwilling to marry Prinny's choice, George names the first woman that pops into his head as his fiance, Susan Jennings. Too bad that they hate each other.
From enemies to engaged, George and Susan must learn to make the best of their situation by getting to know one another, proving you can't judge a book by its cover. This book is filled with plenty of familiar faces and a few new ones creating a story you won't want to miss.
