For the Duke's Eyes Only by Lenora Bell
4.0
This has vague Indiana Jones and friends to enemies to lovers vibes going for it.
We have India an archaeologist who has swagger and a sharp tongue to go with the dagger she carries, who hunts mostly for formidable women lost to history.
And we have Daniel aka Raven, who India believes to be a lazy, self-serving jackass, when he's really a spy for the crown trying to clear his fathers name.
Raven and India have been betrothed basically since birth, but when his father dies he's taken away to live with Sir Malcolm who sends him to "spy school", once he's finished he must push Indy away to protect her and they become bitter rivals. Until they are forced to work together.
This was such a fun, steamy story. I do love that Lenora seems to like putting in hints of voyeurism in her stories, I haven't seen that often in historical romance.
