Good Duke Gone Wild by Bethany Bennett

 ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–/4

Good Duke Gone Wild by Bethany Bennett, book one in her Bluestocking Booksellers series, is an amazing, intriguing, and heartwarming story, that pulled me in from page one; not letting go until the end. Caroline Danvers finds herself kicked out of her family home when her father, a vicar, discovers that she writes erotic novels. With little money Caroline travels by foot to her family bookstore hoping they will provide shelter for her and a place for her to rebuild her life and savings. When she arrives she runs, quite literally, into the arms of Dorian Whitaker, the Duke of Holland. Dorian is captivated by this woman from the moment he meets her, but a Duke has little opportunity to spend time with a book seller, until chance has her working in his library to help him catalog and sell his late wife’s book collection. When Caro discovers love letters that detail the late wife’s affair, it sets off a series of adventures where the two attempt to uncover the details of the letters. As they spend time together, they are drawn to each other as sparks fly, but numerous secrets and societal expectations stand between them.

This was a delightful romance, with a mystery and fabulous supporting characters. I look forward to future books in the series.
