Caro is sick of the ton and sick of the season. She just wants to go home. All her dreams of finding a suitable husband were shattered by a secret scandal that nobody knows about. She’s pretty much sick of men too, until she befriends Marmaduke, who is the brother of the most eligible of Dukes. She and Marmaduke are friends, maybe more than friends, but he’s definitely not a suitable match.
I loved Marmaduke! I loved that he and Caro bonded over cake – and he brings her cake at one point, which is pretty much perfect courting behaviour, by my reckoning. He’s irreverent and funny. Caro, who was annoyingly positive about the Season in the first book has been rendered a different person by her adventure. I think I prefer this Caro, sharp tongued and strong willed, to the previous version.
I really enjoyed this regency romance. I hope there’s more in the series. I’d like to see Marmaduke’s brother get together with the girl who likes hot air balloons…
