A review by ndandy
The Portrait of a Duchess by Scarlett Peckham

Did not finish book. Stopped at 48%.
Loving the characters, not loving the story. They both deserve to be in a better book. 

Scarlett Peckham is one of the few authors who do this very modern political take on historical romance because she’s usually genuinely subversive and boundary-pushing. But this one is just kind of shallow and the plotting is clumsy. Dreaming of a different book altogether where Rafe never inherited.
