Daring and the Duke by Sarah MacLean
Avon, 2020
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This book. This boooooook! I absolutely loved the first two books of the Bareknuckle Bastards series but I would be lying if I didn’t admit that THIS was the story I’ve been waiting for from the beginning.
And it was pretty epic. It was bloodthirsty. And empowering and redemptive. A literal gamut of human emotions.
You’ve got Grace and Ewan who are just throbbing, visceral LoveAngst (Gawd, I love LoveAngst.) You have the reigning Queen of Covent Garden, masterfully running the show with her army of fierce female warriors. You also have a family who loves each other, fighting for each other. And there’s forgiveness and the reunification of brothers. *whimpers brokenly*
Oh. It’s hot too. Very.
And now we wait for the newly announced Sarah MacLean series, Hell’s Belles. (A Victorian Girl Gang, you guys! A Girl Gang!)
Thank you Netgalley and Avon for the chance to read an advanced copy. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
