Up All Night with a Good Duke by Amy Rose BennettMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Artemis Jones is a "respectable" finishing-school teacher by day and a Gothic romance writer by night. Her dream is to open her own academic ladies' college. When Artemis is called upon by a friend to navigate her first London Season, she hopes to find a wealthy patron for her school. Dominic Winters, the widowed Duke of Dartmoor, needs a wife to provide him an heir and help him manage his adolescent daughter. But rumors are rampant that he murdered his wife, so his choices for a suitable bride are limited. Then he meets Artemis Jones. Could they find love with each other?
This is a great historical romance between an independent thinker and a dashing duke. Dominic is a gentleman who screams sensuality, honor and kindness. Artemis is a woman who fears losing control of her life. She doesn’t want to be bound by her society’s rules. I liked them both and routed for them throughout the story. The historical setting was very well described, from the darkened back alleys to the high society ballrooms. The plot was romance meets women’s independence with a dash of sensuality and suspense. I can’t wait to read another installment from this series. Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for this advanced reader’s copy. This review is my unbiased opinion.
