shelbyday 's review for:

Any Duchess Will Do by Tessa Dare

4.0

---

I bought this book and then kept pushing it to the bottom of my to-read pile for months. I just wasn't excited about reading it for some reason. Now that I'm finished, I realize I had a pleasant little treasure sitting around waiting on me to open it. Loved everything about this book. The hero was humorous and strong, but grieving and nursing a broken heart. The heroine was making the best out of a crappy life and was determined to get her and her special-needs sister away from an abusive father. The clash of wills between NOT only the hero and heroine, but also the hero's mother is hilarious. I love how Griffin pretty much told the ton to go to hell and chose the woman he loved over social acceptance. Great read with lots of little mini subplots to keep things moving and exciting.
