This is an adult romance novel, recommended to me by Haley at Veterans Memorial over the summer. It took me a while to finally read it, but it was totally worth the wait.
Tessa is a normal woman asked to play a duchess in a TV reality show. She will wear the clothes, run the manor, and act just like a duchess from 1879 – which means no cell phones, no aspirin, and no reading materials published after 1879. The man playing the duke, Max, is incredibly attractive and Tessa soon finds herself wanting to know him better.
The first word that comes to mind after reading this book is “funny”. I was laughing out loud at parts, which is rather unusual with adult romance books. I liked the straightforward language of the intimate scenes, also a rarity with romance books, and I really liked how Tessa and Max were feisty with each other – they were willing to have arguments and stand up for what they believed in rather than just tiptoeing around each other. Overall, an 8.5 from me and I’ll definitely be checking out other books by Katie MacAlister!
