Moses Warwick, Duke of Chetnole, is returning to England leaving France as a spy. Already wounded when he disembarks from the ship, he is beaten, robbed and left for dead. Jenny Powell lives in a small village and finds Moses unconscious. She's a doctor committed to healing her patients. Moses keeps thinking her husband is the doctor, but between Jenny and her patients he realizes how gifted she is. With no memory of the identity of the traitor giving information to the French, this maybe his last mission and a chance for a different life. A charming duke breaks down the defenses of the lady doctor.
Recommended read. Passionate kisses, but no scriptive sex.
I voluntarily read and reviewed a copy of this book from NetGalley.

The Duke of Chetnole found himself stabbed in the back after getting back to England. The next thing he realized was that he was in an unfamiliar cottage and had his wounds tended to by a lady doctor?

Jenny was definitely portrayed as a strong capable woman from the get go. She hauled limp Moses back to her cottage and didn't let him push her around when he was convinced that women could be doctors.

Their romance definitely blossomed in a bit of a bubble while being together so much during Moses recovery, but things got rocky when they were trying to decide what to do after he had to go back to his responsibilities.

I really liked Jenny and her no nonsense attitude and proof that she worked very hard. A pioneer for her time. Of course Moses came around eventually too, we always need male advocates too.

Thank you to Dragonblade and Netgalley for providing me a copy of this ARC for my honest review.

This book was so good! I really loved the plot and I could not put this book down. The setting was perfect and I could not recommend this book enough!

It’s a light historical Romance set in the English Regency countryside. In this era, female physicians were considered, at best, midwives and, at worst, witches. Ms. Jenny Powell is an idealistic heroine who works as a village Doctor. Moses (or Duke of Chetnole) is in need of doctoring, ambushed, and left for near dead after just returning from his majesty’s service. Providence intercedes, and he finds himself under the expert care of Dr. Powell.

This endearing pair, despite their contrasting personalities and viewpoints, form a bond that is both heartwarming and engaging. As the Duke heals, tensions and passions escalate, and their hidden truths begin to unravel, drawing the reader deeper into their world.
The author did a superb job creating the dual, his and her perspective. Viewing the events with their individual backstory and decisions enhanced the storyline enough that I wanted to shake sense into them. It is part of her series but can be read as a standalone.

Definitely worth a read. 4.2/5 stars.

I quite enjoyed this story. For most of the book it's just Jenny and Moses. She rescued him and is treating him. He doesn't believe she's a Doctor. She's done all the studying, has practised and spends a lot of time making poultices and potions. At one point he notes that she has a Gainsborough hanging on the wall so as a Spy why doesn't he twig that she's more than an impoverished gentlewoman?
There are some themes that aren't finished. Moses conveniently looses his memory so can't say who is the traitor and Jenny does seem to have a volte face when she decides she misses him so much she will compromise her ideals and marry him. He was certainly an **** at the beginning of their friendship. Jenny doesn't like people so perhaps she's neuro diverse?

I notice I've read 1,2,3,6,and 9 in this series so will probably look out for book 12

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Grumpy /sunshine with amnesia. This is a cute story with a ton of witty dialog. At first I thought that Jenny was too hard on Moses and very impatient with him. Then I felt that she was justified in her irritation because he was a bit annoying. By the end it all worked out. This also felt a bit like a play that took place in one location - Jenny's house/office.
Thank you to netgalley for the ARC. Opinions are my own.
...

The doctor found and treated a patient. There was only 2 problems with this.... 1. The Doctor was a woman, 2 the man was a duke trying to hide. Both were wary of strangers and liked to keep busy. Through the healing process they both came to a conclusion... A Duke a day keeps the doctor.
What a wonderful read! I enjoyed the mystery in the story and the quips between the couple.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with guidelines.

This historical romance is part of a series where each book is a stand alone. So you can read as many as you like, in any order. The Duke in danger this time has been spying for the English crown in France. His journey home with his report is not going as planned. Our heroine has left her family to make her own way in the world. Not many people will accept the profession she has chosen.
Obviously with what our hero has been doing, there is danger. There are also a few giggles when he gets told off.
Good fun.

A amusing story of a spy who is a Duke and a Lady who is a doctor during a time when being a female doctor was a rarity. Moses has important information that has him returning to England to pass on to his superiors. Attacked with a knife wound to his back before boarding the ship is only one problem. Not docking in Dover another, passing out in unknown territory, one more. Being saved by a woman was finally some luck going his way.
Jenny Powell has lead a quiet life the last three years, fulfilling her dream of a practicing doctor in a small village in Kent. Till she hears a cry for help and drags to her cottage and wounded unconscious man. Saving him and taking care of his wound and fever has also interrupted the solitude she craves. And once Miles is on the mend the man certainly knows how to get on her nerves.
Both have secrets they try to hide and the banter between the MC is great. Once again written so can be read as a standalone, but the ending is a bit of a cliffhanger. Thank you #NetGalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine and mine alone. #ADukeaDayKeepstheDocterAway #DukesinDanger

A gentle romance with wit, humor, and an underlying element of suspense, drew me in and and kept me engrossed from the beginning to the end. Moses, Duke of Chetnole returns to England with an urgent message for his Whitehall bosses, but after being stabbed, badly beaten, and betrayed, he struggles to remember the reason for his haste in returning home. Moses is grateful that he has been found lying on an abandoned road, but he cannot get his head around the fact the woman tending him calls herself a doctor when everyone knows that women cannot be doctors. Jenny puts up with the obnoxious man, little realizing his title and what he is, but only because she does not discriminate against any person. If they need her help, she treats them. With both Moses and Jenny keeping their secrets, it takes time for an understanding to be reached between them, but when the truth finally emerges, the attraction between them can no longer be stayed. This warmhearted novel is well-written and comes to a sweet conclusion, albeit the mystery of the traitor in their midst still has to be revealed. I received a copy of this book as a gift through Dragonblade Publishing and NetGalley and this is my honest and voluntary review.

Moses is on a mission….if only he could remember it! Jenny is a Doctor, in a world that doesn’t believe women can be and she finds Moses with a knife wound in the middle of the night. The banter between them is very funny, especially with the “man” attitude Moses has. I adored how they played off of each other and the chemistry between them sizzles! It is eye-opening to realize how much women in that era are so under evaluated as real people. Seeing how the people responded to her was a bit heartbreaking. I adored this story as very original, poignant, witty and fun!

I received this book for free and these are my own opinions.

This review is for an ARC Copy i received from the Publisher & NetGalley. Thank you to the Publisher & NetGalley. These words are my own.

REVIEW
Score: 3.5/5
POV: Dual
Heat Level: 1/5
Tropes: HR; Early 1800s; Dr FMC; Spy MMC; Friends to lovers (sort of); forced proximity;

This felt like a great introduction for to me this author. I’ve never read anything by them and this book was good. It’s well written, strong plot, felt like a good progression with the relationship. At times it was a bit wordy as I would find myself skimming, especially when the MC would literally have an internal thought that literally just copied the scene that had just happened, but otherwise the story & romance was good.
I also can’t stand when a book has “spicy; steamy; hot; smutty; etc” in the precise somewhere and then… it’s no where even near that. This book had one very tame sex scene and a few kissing scenes. I would not call this book “spicy; steamy; hot, smutty, etc”. I just feel like it’s false advertisement.

3.5/5

I have read several books in the Dukes in Danger series and I keep coming back for more. Murdoch's books are so charming. She manages to pack a powerful punch in so few pages. Her historical romances are so addictive. A Duke A Day Keeps The Doctor Away was a cute romance featuring one of my favorite tropes, Healing Touch. I adore books with caretakers that lead to a happy ever after. It may be partially due to the fact that I dropped out of nursing school because of my gag reflex and inability to handle naked strangers. Guess I'll never get that handsome wounded soldier falling in love with me. My favorite character was Dr. Powell, hands down. Jenny was the ultimate girl boss and showed great capability as a female doctor despite many naysayers.

Moses and Jenny did eventually get their happy ending, but it was a rough road to get there. She found him outside her cottage and helped nurse him back to health after being mortally wounded in France. He was a terrible patient who kept undermining her skills as a physician despite him recovering at a quick pace. It was annoying to hear him continually spouting gross misogyny because she was a female doctor. She couldn't possibly be the one who healed him because she was a woman! He eventually saw the light, but jeez he was an insufferable lout for 1/3 of the book.

A Duke A Day was the perfect romance to help clear my head to where I finished it in a single setting. I absolutely adore this series and get so excited when Murdoch publishes a new installment. Her characters are so well written that they feel like real people. I'm eager to see what else she has in store for the future Dukes in Danger. I hope they don't mind apples because that's my only protection for when A Duke A Day Keeps the Doctor Away.

An entertaining, well written story that made me smile time and again. Moses and Jenny are an endearing couple who initially had their difficulties with each other due to prejudices, but it was sweet how they grew closer together as the story progressed. At the beginning, Moses was like a spoilt, sometimes shy child, sexist and condescending, permanently teasing her and Jenny was like a confident, bossy governess, perfectly able to reprimand him. I enjoyed the chemistry between them and their banter. Jenny’s character is an admirable and strong woman making her way in a man's domain.
The plot was good and mainly centred on their relationship. I was just a little disappointed that a mystery wasn't solved at the end.


Moses Warwick, Duke of Chetnole, quickly became bored his whole life until he became a spy. During his mission in France, Moses is injured by a traitor and returns to England. But as soon as he arrives, he is ambushed and left seriously injured.

Jenny is a young, well-educated doctor who leads a secluded life in a cottage in a small village, where she is respected and consulted by most of the other villagers.

When Jenny finds Moses near her cottage, she takes him home and tends to his injuries. At first, Moses can't believe that the young woman really is a doctor, he doesn’t take her seriously and doubts her healing abilities, but the more time he spends with her, the more impressed he becomes with her skills. The two become increasingly attracted to each other and Moses, still suffering from partial memory loss, is in no hurry to return to his life and leave Jenny. However, he cannot expect her to give up her hard-earned life, nor can he neglect his duties…

If you like to read historical romance novels with strong heroines and reformed dukes, you will certainly enjoy this book!

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Moses, duke and undercover spy in France, discovered a traitor and got stabbed in the back. He makes it back to England, but gets robbed, kidnapped and then suddenly left on the side of the road. He stumble into a marsh looking for help and loses consciousness.
Jenny, a young woman who studied medicine abroad, finds him and drags him to her home where she nurses him back to health. People tire her out and she genuinely prefers being alone, but to her own amazement Moses’ continuous presence isn’t quite as bothersome.
He’s lost part of his memory, and refuses to leave because he can’t remember if it’s safe for him to do so. She’s reluctant to see him go because he’s become so much more than a patient.
But then duty calls…

There’s something so incredibly beautiful about simple and small - it’s hard for me to capture in words… This might be my new favourite couple in this series so far.

Jenny lives in a small cottage a little outside of a tiny village in the middle of nowhere on the Kentish coast. Most of the story takes place in her workroom and only with the two of them. So it’s very character focused and feels small and intimate, leaving all that space for observation - covert or not so much, captivating conversations with a hefty dose of sarcasm and dry wit, a bit of teasing and that not always graceful dance of two people moving about in a space conceived for one. It’s cosy, funny and charming.
They both keep their true identity hidden for as long as they can as their personal history is slowly unveiled. The tension between them steadily builds. and with the end of his convalescence in sight, she finally gives in… and we get that simple, traditional, romantic but nonetheless delicious steam.

With a surprisingly complex plot for such a small setting, this is a compelling page-turner and I loved everything about it!

A new plot line, which is fantastic! Moses is a duke and a spy. On his return to England he is attacked and finds himself in a little, (very little) village. He is healed by Jenny, the local doctor. Having a female during this time frame being a doctor is amazing, interesting and beautifully done. There is a sub plot within the story that will keep you guessing but it's the interaction between Moses and Jenny that will keep you turning the pages until the last drop. Part of a series, it can be read as a stand alone. Well worth the time to read it.

Moses Warwick, Duke of Chetnole, is not going to allow a literal stab in the back to slow him down. Getting robbed and left for dead? That might do it. Thankfully, someone finds him, drags him to their cottage, and tends to his wounds. When Moses comes round, he wants to thank the doctor who so expertly cared for him. That was when the woman he knew as Jenny Powell revealed that she was a doctor.
A well written romance, whilst it’s the eleventh book in the series it’s easily read on its own. I’ve found this series a bit of a mixed bag but this is one of the best. I really liked both Moses & Jenny & thoroughly enjoyed their banter & how their relationship changed & deepened. There’s a lovey mix of spies, secrets & of course romance
My review is for a special copy I voluntarily read

I really enjoyed reading this regency romance story over the past couple of days. It was surprisingly sweet, funny, entertaining, and even had a moment at the end where I teared up.

This was one of the best entries in Emily EK Murdoch's "Dukes in Danger" series. Jenny is a fantastic FMC - intelligent, literal, strong, and independent. Moses is a lovely MMC - a little bit alpha but able to learn and grow and accept that Jenny doesn't always need his protection and that the talents of women can be equal to those of men. The pair take time at least some time to get to know each other before making their relationship more and there seems to be a sort of acceptance of each other that is enviable. Jenny lets Moses get away with nothing and he needs that in his life.

I did not love the third act separation - it felt unnecessary and its circumstances seemed out of place with the couples' previous interactions. However, it did not last an overly long time, and was not overly dramatic in the way some third act separations can be. Overall, I enjoyed this book a lot. And while it is part of a series, it definitely works as a standalone, though the overall villain carries over throughout the various books.

4 stars. Thank you to Dragonblade and NetGalley for a complimentary ARC of this book. These opinions are my own,

Mystery, Savior, Letters:
A tragic beginning of the story has Moses' wounded, unconscious and nearly dead.
Meet Jenny the doctor who comes to his rescue. 
From there this story takes us on an intriguing and sometimes difficult journey of healing not only their bodies, but their hearts also.
Secrets are disclosed, heartfelt confessions, some scary moments along with a building desire that ignites into much more for a happy conclusion.
