Never Have I Ever With a Duke by Darcy Burke

5.0

Never Have I Ever with a Duke is the first book of The Spitfire Society and a great book to start off the series with! Graham Kinsley was a secretary for Earl of St. Ives, but unexpectedly inherited a dukedom. Now as the new Duke of Halstead he is faced with the challenge of saving the estates. Arabella Stoke’s family was bankrupt, her father had made several bad investments. They had managed to keep in quiet, but she needed to marry a wealthy husband fast. Once Arabella and Graham realize their families had been swindled by the same gentleman, they start to work together to find the man. Graham is determined to find a wealthy wife, so he doesn’t have to sell Brixton Park, his ancestral house. The closer they get to finding the swindler, the more attached to each other they become. Graham must decide if keeping his estate is more important than the love he has for Arabella. The need to find a wealthy spouse troupe is a common one but the author did a great job with the storyline by adding the mystery of the swindler. I can’t wait to find out who the main character from the Spitfire Society will be in the next book! I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
