ANOTHER GREAT REGENCY!,
This review is from: The Dutiful Duke (A Regency Romance) (Paperback)
This is a sweet story about a school mistress (Nia) who is determined to aid her young student (Amanda) - even if it means prentending to be a doxy and holding Amanda's uncle, the Great Duke of Tilton, at gunpoint! Having been estranged from his younger brother, the duke had no knowledge of his neice - in fact his unscrupulous man-of-affairs deliberately kept them apart! Yes, there's a bit of intrigue there! Nia, having (almost) successfully portrayed her Doxy role, convinced the Duke that he truly had a niece and they were happily reunited. Sigh! But of course the bachelor Duke knew nothing of raising a young child and hired Nia to tackle the task! Inevitably, Nia (a soldier/physician's daughter) and the Duke fall in love...only he doesn't think he's worthy of her -- you see he believes he's illegitimate and attempts to sign his vast fortune and property over to his beloved neice who he believes is truly entitled! Another deception of the unscrupulous man-of-affairs... |
