The Duke’s All That is a good conclusion to the Synneful Spinsters trilogy, and the best book of the three.

I liked both Seraphina and Iain. They were complex characters who both dealt with trauma and loss. Seraphina’s story was a good illustration of the lack of women’s agency of that time, and the few options that were available to women to survive.

One thing I really appreciated in the book is that after Seraphina and Iain learn the truth of their past parting, it did not automatically fix anything. They had to come to know each other as they were now in the story.

Thank you to Forever (Grand Central Publishing), NetGalley and the author for the advance reader copy. All opinions are my own.
