Desperate Duchesses by Eloisa James

4.0

---

Review - One of James's best I think because it really brought out the unhappiness of arranged marriages in the Georgian period. The idea of trapping someone into marriage, in this novel, proves that it isn't always what you thought it would be. Although Jemma Duchess of Beaumont isn't the central character it is intriguing to see her development throughout the story, particularly in the relationship with her husband.
