You can just tell when an author struggles with Regency era speak. 

Maybe don’t write a historical romance? 

Also, Sebastian was called the ‘Beastly Duke’ but not once did I see him being a beastly duke. SHOW NOT TELL!!!! Don’t fucking TELL me he’s a beastly duke—SHOW me!!! 

This author needs to go back to writing classes, seriously.
