All in all a very enjoyable reading! I came to this after wanting to read more Regency similar to Julia Quinn‘s Bridgertons‘ series and it didn’t disappoint.

I won’t sum up the plot because I haven’t got the time (and honestly, you probably already read the blurb). The story reminds of a minor Shakesperean play, even though I’m not sure what its name is again - I will look it up
The series focuses on three rakes, the „difficult“ dukes -their „Dis-Graces“, ha!- and this Book in particular features the Duke of Ashmont and the duke of Ripley.

I found the first half of the book a bit slow, bit things pick up after the library scene and then from there it’s all rather quick! I definitely enjoyed the second half of the book more than the first.

As the characters go, I found Olympia quite a bit annoying- all that talk about her being kind, but seems to me she is not that kind at all - especially concerning the feelings of the men in her life. Ashton is a sweetheart though, and that’s the main reason why I’ll stick with the series.
The other reason is that I REALLY need to know WHAT is going on between Alice and Blackwood (which will be in the third Book, apparently coming out in 2022!)

To sum it up, a well written, enjoyable regency novel, with lots of funny respites and a sweet romance!
