A Duke for All Seasons by Fenna Edgewood
5.0
Lance Carlisle has inherited a dukedom, a spiteful aunt and a house full of dark secrets. When he uncovers the truth behind the presence of a beautiful girl he used to know as a child in his ancestry home, he is prepared to right some of the wrongs that have been committed by his relatives and save her from shame and poverty, even if he’ll never have what he desires most… Her heart.
Maggie Mackenzie is broken and powerless, but she’s still willing to fight for her future. When her secret childhood crush offers to help her, she accepts. But when she starts to really care for him, will she be able to overcome her past and make a fresh start?
I’m following this series from the very beginning and I’m loving each and every book! This one was particularly emotional, because it centered on the abuse that was only touched on in the previous books. But the author dealt with the aftermath of Maggie’s ordeal with heartwarming delicacy and created a wonderful hero who is everything a wounded woman could ask for. I loved Lance with all my heart and I felt for Maggie, who despite her suffering remained strong and open to love. The overarching mystery plot is masterfully developed: it links all the books without being overwhelming and it still allows them to be read as standalones (but my advice is to read them all in order, because they are really worthwhile!). Now I look forward to seeing where the story will lead and when the real villain will finally be brought to justice.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
