My Thoughts 


I enjoyed this one while still wanting more from this series starter. 


Slow in parts, with some characters and their actions never developed to their better potential or sufficiently wrapped up (perhaps these missing parts will be addressed in the upcoming books?), this one just missed the mark.


A non-steamy, sweet romance can be just the thing sometimes - a lot of readers fully adored this one. Despite my issues with this, I do plan on giving future titles in the series a try and hope for more in-depth character development and plotlines.




Thank you to Forever (Grand Central Publishing) and NetGalley for the DRC




Description


A duke with a reputation to uphold and a woman with a scandalous past take a gamble on their forbidden love in this Regency romance—perfect for fans of USA Today bestsellers Sophie Jordan and Kerrigan Byrne!

Raised in a foundling home and now proprietor of a successful club, Gabriel Cadieux hasn’t ever been welcomed by polite society. But when he discovers he’s the legitimate heir to a dukedom, he must make a choice: accept the debt-ridden title and the trappings of the peerage who shunned him or decline and leave his six rebellious half sisters to fend for themselves. As much as he hates the idea, Gabriel can’t abandon his siblings, even if it means making a deal with the most frustrating—and aggravatingly beautiful—woman he’s ever met.

Vivienne Tremeer storms into Cadieux’s club with one thing on her mind: get the loathsome owner to discharge her brother’s gambling debts. So when Gabriel offers her a trade—if she’ll teach his wild sisters the ways of the ton, he’ll clear the notes—she has no choice but to accept. But with her reputation already on a knife’s edge, falling for the duke could cause the scandal of the season.
