This was a bit of a strange story but I'll have a go at describing the plot. The H is a duke who is chased after by every debutante in the ton. The author describes him having to check his carriage at night for debutantes trying to compromise him. When he gets home at night his servants have to check his room. I just found that it was a bit exaggerated. The h is a heiress with a passion to go to Egypt and take part in an expedition. The H doesn't believe that the h isn't chasing after him and they have a bit of a strange relationship. In the midst of this, one of the debutante's chasing the H gets murdered. The h is the H's alibi but she also wavers between thinking that he might be guilty of murdering the victim. Later another debutante is killed and left in his carriage and shortly after that the h is kidnapped and the H is blamed. The whole book is a bit complicated, a bit silly and not at all convincing. I love grand romances and this isn't one, especially since the h doubts the H right the way through the book and he is suspicious of all women. The dialogues between the H and h are strange and peculiar and not very romantic. You'd have to read the book to understand what I mean and I'm not sure the book is worth buying. On the up side it is a clean romance.
