Review: Great Introduction to the Windham Family
Rating: 5 out of 5

The Duke and His Duchess novella by Grace Burrowes is the continuation of The Courtship novella which introduces the Windham family featured in seven novels by the author. Although the stories can be read alone, I would recommended reading them together. I waited until this one came out before purchasing both and reading them together rather like one short novel instead of the even shorter novella format. Together, they are about 200 pages in length.Both are great reads giving solid history to the seven longer novels: The Heir, The Soldier, The Virtuoso, Lady Maggie's Secret Scandal, Lady Louisa's Christmas Knight, Lady Sophie's Christmas Wish and Lady Eve's Indiscretion. The Courtship tells the story of how they became a couple and the The Duke and Duchess tell how they became a power couple. The glimpses of the ducal family and the children who grew to be the main characters in the series were scene stealers and yet still gave depth to the romance. If you have read any of the main books in the series, you will enjoy the well written story of how they all became a family.  If not, any historical romance fan will enjoy the well plotted romance and HEA Burrowes shows her readers.
