I decided to give this book a chance since I always love a story about a Duke but sadly I had a problem with the way the author handled the story and some of the scenarios really didn't work.Briefly the h is a poor, young destitute girl who falls down a well on the H's property. He finds and rescues her and takes her home as she has injured her ankle. The h's brother had been murdered over a woman, in a pub, a few weeks before and she is trying to recover emotionally from that. The H takes a liking to her and their relationship develops slowly.What I liked: The story was clean with just kissing. The grammar and spelling was fine and there weren't any formatting problems.What I didn't like: The story was klunky and amateurish at times. I cringed in many places. The misunderstanding towards the end was ridiculous. The H had kept the identity of the h's brother's murderer from her because he only found out a few days before the wedding. To say she over reacted is putting it mildly,  after all the H had done for her and how well he'd treated her. Her brother was hardly a wonderful character so her over reaction for me wasn't at all credible.I do think the author tried really hard to produce a good regency romance but her story line needed more work.
