About this listen

Too-clever, too honest, Cassandra Pomfret is legendary in London society for her strong opinions, the latest of which has caused yet another uproar. Her exasperated father decrees that If Cassandra won’t conform for her own sake, her younger sister can neither finish her debut season nor wed before Cassandra does....

But fate has thrown a wrench in her father’s well-laid plans, in the person of the Duke of Ashmont, whose angelic swoon-worthy looks are completely eclipsed by his monumentally bad behaviour, and whose sudden, scandalous pursuit of Cassandra threatens her reputation as well as her family’s.

Ashmont may have his (nearly uncountable) flaws, but he knows better than to ruin a lady’s reputation. The only honourable course is to wed her - especially since he wants to - and hope they both make it to the altar without killing each other!

A delightfully clever, charming and romantic Difficult Dukes novel.

I am glad I listened to book 1 first to gain an understanding of the men friendship. I throughly engaged with the story, the strong and uniqueness of each person character. I sincerely hope there is a book three and four and was disappointed to note they are not available.
Excellent Highly Recommended 👏🏾 👌

brilliant

The author has a quirky sense of humour and the two main characters are funny, and easy to like. Some of the references to the historical situation of the times gave a sense of how stifling and difficult was the plight of women then.

Made me laugh aloud.

I wasn’t sure I would like this second book in the series, as Ripley was just heavenly and Ashmont seemed to be a drunken dimwit. Equally, Cassandra seemed the last person on earth to pair with him. But, gradually, with Ashmont learning to grow up and stop turning to drink as his first port of call when problems arose, and Cassandra showing her real self little by little, they became so right for each other. He was hilariously funny, especially when they eventually got together, and she warmed up amazingly and became a different person. It was all rather lovely by the end.

Stick with it

I really enjoyed this book. Even if it is 2nd in the series if you haven't read the first book prior you do not feel like you are missing much (unlike some other books from a series)

I really enjoyed the story and almost felt like it allowed for the 'Duke' to become his own man. It is clear that Cassandra is a much better fit for Ashmont. There are also several subplots that fit right in and do not distract from the main story but complement it well.

Performance:
I really enjoyed this book. Kate Reading was excellent as usual.

The story stands on its own and could be read as a single novel outside of being the first in the series without missing anything.

Would definitely recommend

Excellent
