The Governess and the Duke by Lydia Drake
Did not finish book. Stopped at 31%.
2.0
First I would like to thank Lydia Drake, Entangled Publishing and NetGalley for a copy of this book. The opinions expressed are solely mine.
I really wanted to like this book. I enjoy a good historical romance every now and again but this one felt forced. The writing is great don’t get me wrong. It’s just a personal thing.
I was about a third of the way through it and I DNF’d it. Partly because the cover doesn’t match the description of the Hunt and that always drives me crazy. Then I felt no connection to the characters. They listed after eachother but I didn’t feel any of the burn between them.
For my warming portion: There will be sex scenes I just never got to them just imaginations on both parties. Also at least 5 f words.
