Second Duke's the Charm by Kate Bateman

4.0

---

This is a great first-in-series historical romance that appears to be setting up at least two more stories. This book belongs to widow (and secret virgin) Tess and Justin, the man who succeeds her dear husband as duke. What started as one clandestine tryst becomes a marriage of convenience situation. It’s always fun to watch as very real feelings develop in these fake relationship situations. I’m adding the rest of the series to my TBR.
