As far as the writing goes, it was enjoyable to read.  The story itself really did nothing for me.We have our hero, the Duke of Darlington, who appears to be the lowest of the lows when it comes to his treatment of others.  Our heroine, Kit, takes on Darlington to save her younger sister from herself.  On these premises alone we have one of the oldest plots, the redeemed sinner.  Unfortunately,it goes no where.  The Duke doesn't redeem himself and make himself worthy of Kit's love.  The story left me wanting and dissatisfied.I hate to say it, because I kind of groan when I read it in other reviews, but the story had far too many modern sensibilities to be historically accurate.  A bit of Modern Family meets the 19th century.
