Duchess by Design
by Maya Rodale
This is a fantastic historical romance that I highly recommend. Although it's a great romance, what I loved even more was the time period (the Gilded Age) and the rich/poor and male/female dynamics going on. I loved how the heroine was challenging the world in which she lived and how the hero grew into a better man as a result of his meeting her. It really is one of the most successful romances I've read in awhile - the focus on female empowerment alone was 5 star worthy as it was handled so deftly. But, add in the opportunity to watch the hero grow from a privileged man who was pretty self-absorbed to a man who sees the world in an entirely new way ... and it was superb! So glad that I read this one! I can't wait to see what Maya Rodale has in store for us with this series!
