![]() The women’s suffrage movement during the Victorian era was a fascinating backdrop. I found the romance between Sebastian and Annabelle to feel authentic. So very handsome.Īt the same time, Sebastian is finding Annabelle’s green eyes irresistible however, she’s a commoner and not fit to be his duchess.Įven though this wasn’t a rom com, there were still funny moments. Oh, and the Duke happens to be her political polar opposite, and handsome. ![]() She’s been told she must recruit men to support the cause, and in her sights is the Duke of Montgomery, Sebastian Devereux. Her scholarship has a price, though, and a worthy one: she must advocate for women’s suffrage. Annabelle has joined the first class of female students at the University of Oxford. In late 19th century England, Annabelle Archer is the daughter of a country vicar, now penniless. Instead, it’s a clever historical romance, one like nothing I’ve read before, though I admit I am not a frequent historical romance reader. Somehow this cover brought to mind a rom com, but that is not what unfolds within these pages. ![]() Today I have a review of Bringing Down the Duke by Evie Dunmore, available from Berkley Pub on September 3, 2019. ![]()
