Lady Diana Wylder and the Duke of Sheffield are two of a
kind, and their families intend to settle them down. Lady
Diana's mother chooses staid Lord Crump for her husband, and
Sheffield's cousin and mentor recommends bookish Lady Enid.
Even King George is behind Sheffield's match. While
Sheffield contrives a way to get out of his marriage, Diana
is determined to go through with hers and become the
reserved marchioness her mother and sisters want her to be.
WHEN THE DUKE FOUND LOVE is a fun and romantic tale of two
people who vow not to get married to each other and change
their minds when it's too late. Diana and Sheffield are
practically family; her sisters are married to his cousin,
and her mother relies on another cousin to help her with
difficult decisions. No matter how Diana tries to avoid
Sheffield, they keep running into each other, and she can't
help but compare the fun-loving duke to the overly proper
Lord Crump.
Author Isabella Bradford created two vivacious and willful
characters, then stacked up the obstacles against them. How
on earth can these two get out of their very publicly
announced betrothals without bringing scandal upon
themselves and their families? Diana also has very strong
motives for going along with the marriage her mother has
arranged for her. We all know how a romance is supposed to
end, but Bradford kept me in suspense until the final pages.
I recommend WHEN THE DUKE FOUND LOVE for readers who enjoy
historical, and particularly Georgian romances.
The spirited Wylder sisters continue to scandalize the ton
in Isabella Bradford’s witty and winsome trilogy. This time,
the most impulsive of the siblings meets her match: a
charming rake determined to save her from an arranged marriage.
The youngest of the Wylder girls—and the last left
unwed—Lady Diana is also the most willful, a trait that’s
leading her ever closer to dishonorable disaster. While her
family’s solution is a fast and excruciatingly respectable
marriage, Diana can’t imagine being wed to the very staid
and dull Lord Crump. But while wedding plans are being made,
a chance meeting at a gala turns Diana’s world upside down.
A kiss from a dazzling stranger gives Diana a most intimate
introduction to one of the ton’s most resolute and
scandalous bachelors, the Duke of Sheffield. Torn between
family duty and her heart’s desire, Diana recklessly
surrenders to the headiest of passions, recognizing that she
has found a kindred soul in the handsome young duke. Soon
it’s clear that seduction is no longer the game: Something
deep and lasting has come to bind their hearts, and the
stakes are nothing less than true love.
