The Duchess Deal by Tessa Dare

4.0

Thank you so much Avon Books for sending me this free copy in exchange for an honest review!

Yes, yes, yes!! I've been looking forward to reading Tessa Dare for a while and I am not disappointed! This book was so good and exceeded my expectations.

I loved not only the steamy parts, but also all the times both Emma and Ash cared for each other. There were so many really sweet moments. I loved the little friend group Emma has, those ladies were iconic!! I can't wait to read more of this series and to see them again! I'm always nervous about the 80% "break-ups" but this one turned out really believable and didn't bother me! And the way the maids and footmen tried to secretly get Emma and Ash to fall in love with each other was hilarious! Also, the Monster of Mayhem with the Menace was a whole side plot that I was not expecting and LOVED! So much laughter and love throughout this book, I can't wait to read what other books Tessa Dare has written. I'll be ordering the next book in the series ASAP!
