Dawn with a Duke
12 Dukes of Christmas #9
by Erica Ridley
As the daughter of a duke, Lady Isabelle’s pristine reputation is paramount. Her high status is how she’ll attract the titled suitor her mother insists she wed. When Belle’s chaperone falls ill en route to a party, she must pose as an independent widow to avoid gossip. Why not have a wee innocent flirtation with a handsome tailor staying at the same inn? She’ll be gone in the morning…
A sudden blizzard upends Calvin McAlistair’s plans when he’s snowbound at a posting-house. He has no time to play lady’s maid to the helpless beauty next door, no matter how much he enjoys unbuttoning the straitlaced widow. His future depends on impressing an important investor… who will ruin them both once they realize Calvin has spent a scandalous fortnight with Lady Isabelle!
REVIEW
5 out of 5
Can you see me swooning? This was such a sweet romance. I loved Calvin and Isabelle, they might be from different worlds socially speaking, but they’re clearly so perfect for each other from the moment they meet. There were plenty of little moments that had me smiling, and this absolutely warmed my heart. Calvin is so sweet and caring, with a good heart. Isabelle is not what you’d expect from a lady. If you’re looking for a sweet regency romance that will have you smiling all the way through, you’ll want to grab this one.
