janpuls 's review for:
Project Duchess
by Sabrina Jeffries
Fletcher 'Grey' Pryde, 5th Duke of Greycourt, is the eldest son of Lydia Fletcher, his father died when he was a baby & his mother went on to marry two other dukes. Lydia’s third husband Maurice Duke of Armitage has recently died after falling from a bridge late at night. Grey travels to Lincolnshire to be with his grieving mother & agrees to assist her with her latest 'project' - schooling spirited, unfashionable distant cousin Beatrice for her debut.
Sparks fly when Grey & Beatrice first meet & continue to fly each time they meet as well as their lively banter their attraction grows. Greys younger half brother, Sheridan thinks his father, Maurice may have been murdered so the pair begin to look at likely suspects. A captivating start to a new series, there are lots of new characters to meet, I especially liked the family tree at the start, so the start of the book was slow so that it enabled me to fit who was who into place. The mystery surrounding Maurice’s death isn't solved, so this is obviously going to run through the series, which by the way I'll definitely be reading. I love the authors books & this didn't disappoint. A well written, well paced book with strong characters. Both Grey & Beatrice have had difficult childhoods, the closer they came the more we learned about this. I also particularly liked the attention to detail & the historical facts the author gave about funerals.
My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read
