My review: 4 enchanting stars!

HOW TO TAME YOUR DUKE is lovely and unexpected. The story has heart and heat woven into one. It's emotionally stunning. A passionate story that not only enchants but enthralls.

I enjoyed this book. It is refreshing when I stumble onto a book with a heroine who dresses in disguise. Well, the heroine in this book is rather forced into disguise, but it's entertaining just the same. ;)

Princess Emilie is a rather likable heroine. She's smart and has a good head on her shoulders. She's also put into hiding by her uncle to keep her safe. She becomes a tutor in a household. Not just any household. The Duke of Ashland's household.

The Duke of Ashland is delicious. He's a former solider and is disfigured. He has a son and a wife that abandoned them. I really enjoyed his character. I love that Ms. Gray wrote about a hero who isn't physically perfect. It adds to the sexiness to this character. Really. I couldn't read enough about this chap.

Ms. Gray has a superb talent for crafting the perfect kind of characters that are vulnerable, strong willed, yet stunningly unique. It's the kind of historical romance readers will adore. Brava, Ms. Gray!
