Kitty proclaiming to the entire ton that she’s engaged to the beastly recluse who nobody has seen in years was a unique spin I haven’t read before. They were more like family to him, and I loved eavesdropping on their gossip, whisperings, and orchestrations. I think my favorite part of the entire book was Alexander’s meddling staff. Beauty and the Beast storyline! I love B&B retellings, so this was a major bonus for me. Someone recommended Stacy Reid’s Sinful Wallflowers series, and since they’re on Kindle Unlimited I decided to give it a shot! My Darling Duke was a very fun book, and I’m definitely interested in continuing on with this series. So naturally, I went to Twitter and asked the romancelandia masses what I should do. I’ve been on the hunt for more historical romance series to love since I discovered (and devoured) Lisa Kleypas’s books last year. And denying his heart may cost him an exquisite love that happens only once in a lifetime. Soon, they are involved in a chase, a clash of wills, and though he once vowed to never love again, he burns for the enchanting Miss Danvers. Miss Danvers will now learn the consequences of engaging herself to the beast, for Alexander is determined to make her his. His heart exists in cold, lonely exile, until he learns he has a fiancée-a deceptive, clever, and utterly intriguing woman he's never met. Ten years ago, society and the woman Alexander Masters loved called him a monster, after a tragic accident left him scarred and confined to a wheelchair. So she transforms herself into the incomparable Kitty Danvers, the fiancée of the enigmatic and reclusive Alexander Masters, Duke of Thornton-once dubbed the mad, bad, and dangerous catch of the Season. Her family is on the brink of financial ruin, and it is up her to save her mother and sisters from a life of indignities. Miss Katherine Danvers is a desperate wallflower.
