How to Tame Your Duke (A Princess in Hiding Romance)
*Starred Review* After her father and brother-in-law are assassinated, Princess Emilie of Holstein-Schweinwald-Huhnhof and her two sisters flee to England. Upon arriving, their uncle, the Duke of Olympia, convinces the young women that their future safety rests on disguising themselves as young gentlemen. All of which explains exactly why Emilie finds herself dressed up in suit and whiskers, playing the role of Tobias Grimsby, the newest tutor to Lord Frederick Silverton. Ever since returning home from an ill-fated adventure in India that left him disfigured and disillusioned, Freddie’s father, the Duke of Ashland, refuses to receive visitors, attend social functions, or set foot outside his estate in Yorkshire. Once Freddie finishes his studies and sets off for Oxford, the duke is determined to live out the rest of his days in solitude. At least, that was the plan—until the duke meets Freddie’s latest tutor. After delighting romance readers with her spectacular Affairs by Moonlight trilogy, Gray is right on target to do it again. Gray’s witty writing, flawless characterization, and fanciful plotting make this Victorian-set historical romance an absolute treasure. --John Charles
