When the Duke Loved Me by Lydia Lloyd
5.0
Y’all. This book was a historical lovers DREAM. It had so many tropes packed into one story which was done in a magical way. Typically, I wouldn’t love a book where the author seemed to be putting every trope they could into their 400-page book. However! Lloyd executed her trope with grace and it didn’t feel too much at any time. I loved every second of this book, even when I felt like the story was dragging, I was still enjoying myself.
The plot of this story is pretty wild, but I loved every second of it. It has a very old-school historical romance vibe to it because of how wild it is and I think that is what drew me to the novel when I first started reading it. One of my favorite things in the novel was John’s sister, Henrietta. I found it refreshing that she was an actual part of the story and not just a side character there for comedic relief.
Overall, I really loved this book and I can’t wait for the rest of the series!
