Life as a duchess…
Or something much more dangerous…?
Or something much more dangerous…?
Part of The King’s Elite. Constantly told her beauty and charm is all she has to offer, Lady Clarissa is intent on marrying a duke. And intriguing spy Sebastian Leatham will help her! Only first she’ll assist him with his new assignment—playing the part of confident aristocrat Lord Millcroft. Sebastian awakens a burning desire within Clarissa which leaves her questioning whether becoming a duchess is what she truly longs for…
I received this ARC from the author in return for a honest review.
Oh my what a brilliant start to a new series. This book was BRILLIANT (sorry for shouting) and I just loved reading every single minute of it.
As we know by now that Ms Heath always adds a humour to her books and she let me down. One particular scene stands out for me. Clarissa is down stairs with her hair in rags and she is sitting on a settee in her nightgown eating shortbread smothered in jam, and its were Seb finds Clarissa much to her mortification...but its also were Seb sees the real Clarissa.
Now you may remember from the Warriner books Clarissa is Bella's older sister and she thinks she has to be perfect, you know perfect hair, gowns and the perfect shape and is trying to marry the perfect duke...but underneath lies a troubled young lady and it takes a man who gets shy and tongue tied when he speaks to any lady.
Overall this is an enjoyable read, and truly you will see a different Clarissa and like me will fall in love with Seb.
I give this book 5/5 stars.
