I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a fan of historical romance. I always thought it was just the feminist in me screaming at the characters, so I stopped reading them for a long time. Honestly, this is the first one I've read in awhile, and I must say, I really enjoyed it.I loved Penelope, who was absolutely a kindred spirit. She was sweet and kind and I wanted her to get her HEA. I wasn't sure that I wanted her to get it with Drake, at first, mostly because of how he treated Penelope in the beginning. Embarrassing her and making her feel like she should be this proper married woman. (See...total feminist! LOL)But...he came through in the end. I started loving him about halfway through the book and was rooting for the two of them. Also, I loved his mother and sisters, who were great secondary characters!This book actually taught me a lesson. It's not about the genre...it's about the individual book. And The Duke's Quandary was a terrific read! I will definitely read more books by this author!
