The Day of the Duchess (Scandal & Scoundrel #3)
Amazon B&N |
by Sarah Mac Lean
The one woman he will never forget…
Malcolm Bevingstoke, Duke of Haven, has lived the last three years in self-imposed solitude, paying the price for a mistake he can never reverse and a love he lost forever. The dukedom does not wait, however, and Haven requires an heir, which means he must find himself a wife by summer’s end. There is only one problem—he already has one.
The one man she will never forgive…
After years in exile, Seraphina, Duchess of Haven, returns to London with a single goal—to reclaim the life she left and find happiness, unencumbered by the man who broke her heart. Haven offers her a deal; Sera can have her freedom, just as soon as she finds her replacement…which requires her to spend the summer in close quarters with the husband she does not want, but somehow cannot resist.
A love that neither can deny…
The duke has a single summer to woo his wife and convince her that, despite their broken past, he can give her forever, making every day The Day of the Duchess.

Review: 3.5 stars of 5
I LOVE this author and haven't come across a single book I haven't liked.
I gave this one 3.5 stars because of the repetitiveness, the frustrating lack of communication between the main characters and all of it went on for way too long. I felt as if the progress was slow throughout the book with a quick resolution and it was over.
That being said, I liked that it was different - a second chance romance - and the emotion was there on both sides (actually made me tear up at one point, which is super rare).
I highly recommend anything written by Sarah MacLean.
