I DARED THE DUKE is so much damn fun. After years of
ignoring his grandmother's companion, Alexander is forced to
realize that his assumptions of her are simply not correct.
While she's been the perfect wallflower, appearances are
simply not what they seem.
Elizabeth, for her part, has assumptions of her own
regarding Alexander and none of them is positive. She adores
his grandmother, however, and has no interest in seeing him
abuse his power in banishing the two to the country.
After she finally shows her backbone and shocks Alexander
into agreeing to her plot, I DARED THE DUKE takes off
through a romp of mistaken identities, arranged romances,
and happily ever afters. This is one of those books that I
will probably not remember details about, but I will
remember how it made me feel. An engrossing tale for sure
and one worth your time.
Alexander Savage, the Duke of Blackshire, is known throughout the ton for three things: the burn scars on his neck, his ornery disposition, and the trail of broken hearts behind him. None of which would concern Miss Elizabeth Lacey in the least—if she weren’t living under his roof. As his grandmother’s companion, Beth is all too concerned with the moody and compelling duke. Incensed by his plans to banish the sweet dowager duchess to the country, Beth refuses to do his bidding. If Alex wants her help, he’s going to have to take her dare…and grant her three wishes. Alex adores his grandmother, which is precisely why she must leave. A string of unfortunate incidents has him worried for the safety of everyone around him—including the dowager’s loyal and lovely companion, Beth. But the notorious wallflower isn’t as meek as she appears, and as their battle of wills heats up, so does Alex’s desire. He’s dangerously close to falling in love with her…and revealing secrets he’d rather keep hidden. How can he convince her that his darkest days are behind him—and that, for the first time in forever, his heart is true?
