Tessa Dare has a new series called Girl Meets Duke and the first book, THE DUCHESS DEAL is an impressive start. Readers can expect the same snarky comebacks and charming personalities that her characters are known for, but this book also has an interesting premise.

Emma Gladstone is seeking payment for a wedding dress that she made. But since its been called off, she does to the would-be groom, the Duke of Ashbury, to be compensated. The Duke has avoided marriage thus far, but he must do so quickly or else he won’t have an heir. His personality is brooding and glowering but it’s no match for the charm that Emma holds.

This book was so fun to read. You can always count of Tessa Dare to deliver a charming book. I was smiling from ear to ear as I read this book and I have to say that I’m very excited for this series. Free-flowing and easy to read, it’s also an easy one to devour. If you’re anything like me, you’ll be able to read it in one sitting.

And soon, you’ll be wishing to claim the heroes one by one just like me. Trust me when I say that this is not a book that you want to miss.
