I enjoyed the previous two novels in Diana Quincy’s Accidental Peers series and Compromising Willa did not disappoint.  I liked the history behind the rival between the villainous Augustus Earl of Bellingham, and the heroic Accidental Peer, Grey Preston, Duke of Hartwell. The idea of the Accidental Peers comes to light with startling clarity in Compromising Willa due to the contrasts of these two men. What makes a man…his title or his own honor?  Gus was born to the title, but Grey held the honor and nature worthy of being a Peer.I found the premise of Willa’s ruination intriguing and liked how Ms. Quincy tied the plot points together.  The relationship between Hart and Willa evolved naturally with a sexy chemistry and delightful witty dialogue.Ms. Quincy likes to educate her readers and seamlessly wove in social conscious of the times with the history of the coffee houses and Willa’s interest in helping women of the era who had fallen on hard times.With her Accidental Peers series, Ms. Quincy is quickly becoming my go-to author for Historical Romance!
