A Lady for a Duke by Alexis Hall

5.0

Thank you so, so much to Forever and Netgalley for providing me an e-arc of this! All thoughts and opinions are still my own.

Wow Alexis Hall never ceases to blow me away with their writing. I've read quite a few of their books at this point and I swear they just keep getting better.

This will definitely go down as an all-time favorite historical romance.

If you're new to the genre, this is a super beginner friendly book with a more contemporary style/language.

In this, we're following Violet and Gracewood who have been best friends since childhood. But Violet let everyone believe she'd died in battle in order to live life as herself. But when the two are reunited, memories of who they were compared to who they are, and can be, now sends their lives into a whirlwind.

This book is heart-wrenching, stunningly written, and full of the queer cast I long for in this genre. I fell so in love with both of these characters and their overwhelming love for each other.

Everything about this was beautiful and wonderful and will stick with me forever. Alexis Hall is a must read for any romance lover.
