An arrogant duke does the unthinkable - he falls in love with his mistress.... She raced onto the green, desperate to stop a duel. In the mêlée, Jocelyn Dudley, Duke of Tresham, was shot. To his astonishment, Tresham found himself hiring the servant as his nurse. Jane Ingleby was far too bold for her own good.

When he offered to set her up in his London town house, love was the last thing on his mind.

Historia
In a city that never was, sex, scandal, and swordplay combine in a melodrama of manners that takes listeners to a world inspired by Elizabethan London, 18th century Paris, and 1980s New York City. Sexuality is fluid, politics is everything, and outcasts are the tastemakers. Intrigue is afoot when a Duchess, a scholar, a swordswoman, and a genius, are brought together by long-buried lies and truths that cannot be denied.

Ellen has traded a monstrous husband for a masterly rake, and now faces the prospect of the greatest danger of all: falling in love.

These are cute
This is my second time around with this series. I appreciated how light, frivolous, and humorous the story was. There is a bit of mystery and intrigue without lengthy angst, which I was glad of. I wish we had more work in this genre from this author, as I've read every single one at least once. And some several times.

Love This Series
In general, I really like reading Marion Chesney/MC Beaton, but this series has been exceptionally enjoyable. I’m looking forward to reading the final book in the series next, and hope it wraps up happily for all the characters. I’ll be sorry to see it end!
