The Truth About Dukes by Grace Burrowes
5.0
This is one of those books I wish I could give more stars to. I'm a huge fan of Ms. Burrowes, but this story was unique in such a wonderful way among historical romances.
Robert Rothmere was put into an asylum as a boy by his father because of his epilepsy. Rescued years later by his brother, he is now the rightful and reclusive Duke of Rothhaven. His neighbor is Lady Constance Wentworth who he knows from his years in the asylum (no spoilers).
Robert struggles to deal with an unfamiliar world, one where he could be shamed at any moment due to a seizure. Constance has her own issues and these two damaged people find solace and love with each other. It's lovely writing about two interesting characters, different in many ways from the typical Regency H/h, a book I thoroughly enjoyed.
