The Duke Meets His Match by Karen Tuft, Blog Tour & Giveaway!

 

Book Summary:

At thirty years of age, Susan Jennings has long been considered a spinster. Exceptionally intelligent, she has little tolerance for London and the dreaded Season—if that’s how one is expected to find love, it’s not for her. But when an invitation arrives that cannot be ignored, Susan leaves her comfortable life in the country and enters the fashion and frivolity she most despises. She quickly discovers, however, that there is more to loathe in London—and his name is George Kendall.

George, Duke of Aylesham, has learned to keep his distance from cloying females chasing the title of duchess. Susan Jennings, however, proves an entirely different challenge—a woman who has pushed him to the limit of his patience with their every encounter. But their simmering hostility is disrupted by a thoughtless slip-up: to avoid a marriage of political strategy, George claims he is already betrothed. And when pressed for the name of the lucky woman, only one name comes to mind: Susan’s. Their forced betrothal proves advantageous, but when their verbal sparring must change in order to be convincing, the line between fact and fiction becomes blurred by something neither expected: love.

My Review:

This book was amazing and fun! Tuft beautifully weaves together a world of two very different people. I loved how she alternated between both characters' point of view. Susan is intelligent and witty, out to impress no one as she considers herself too old to marry. Her quick wit left a lasting impression and sparks and fire flew between her and Aylesham. Sometimes it was hard to tell if it was romantic sparks or fiery darts of anger! I could not believe the scrape Aylesham put them both into and I wasn't sure how in the world he could convince Susan to go along with his plan. I cannot forget Lady Walmsley, she must be mentioned, she is one of the best characters quite literally! The Duke Meets His Match is definitely a must read for regency era fans! 

Happy Reading!!!
