The Truth About Love and Dukes

Dear Lady Truelove

By: Laura Lee Guhrke

Narrated by: Carolyn Morris

Dear Lady Truelove . . . I have fallen in love, truly and completely in love, for the first time. The man whom I hold in such passionate regard, however, is not of my station. He is a painter, a brilliant artist. Needless to say, my family would not approve . . .

Henry, Duke of Torquil, wouldn’t be caught reading the wildly popular “Dear Lady Truelove” column, but when its advice causes his mother to embark on a scandalous elopement, an outraged Henry decides the author of this tripe must be stopped before she can ruin any more lives. Though Lady Truelove’s identity is a closely guarded secret, Henry has reason to suspect the publisher of the notorious column, beautiful and provoking Irene Deverill, is also its author.

For Irene, it’s easy to advise others to surrender to passion, but when she meets the Duke of Torquil, she soon learns that passion comes at a price. When one impulsive, spur-of-the-moment kiss pulls her into a scorching affair with Henry, it could destroy her beloved newspaper, her career, and her independence. But in the duke’s arms, surrender is so, so sweet . . .

England in the 1890's.
It is about the rights. of. Women.
Most of all. I loved the hero and heorine and their
love story.

just ok for me

I have read almost all the historical romance novels available with a bearable narrator. This one was so slow to the point I thought I would die before we got there, then it was over.

Very Enjoyable

I really enjoyed this book. The heroine, Irene, is very strong minded and forward thinking. The hero, Henry, is also a very strong minded and serious Duke. The narration by Carolyn Morris was excellent.

Surprising Delight

At the beginning of this book, I took an aversion to the main characters. A controlling, manipulative and narrow-minded Duke and a strong-willed just as narrow-minded newspaper publisher. But, Laura Lee Guhrke soon began to spin a story that drew me in. I thoroughly enjoyed the story and developed an affinity with the characters.
