Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the arc.

This is a solid historical romance, with the funniest proposal I have ever read. I really enjoy the concept of this series and I really liked these characters. But I wanted more, I wanted it to go deeper into these characters and to get more relationship depth. Like book one, but for the random unique conflict point (this time red hair and green eyes/ infamous triplets), this wouldn’t stand out amongst the historical romances I’ve read. That’s not a bad thing, it’s very much a typical historical romance, exactly the sort of book I think of when thinking of the genre. I think anyone who likes lighter historical romances will really enjoy this one.

I wasn’t a fan of the wedding night naiveté and subsequent miscommunication plotline, but that’s very much a personal taste thing. If you aren’t a fan of far too uniformed/misinformed virgin FMCs then be mindful of that. It all works out and everyone has a great time, but I was uncomfortable until it was all out in the open and resolved.

**I was provided this book as an e-ARC. Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this story and provide my honest opinion on it.**

I really enjoyed this book. I have been missing Bridgerton and my other period pieces and this story filled that gap for me. It was a slower paced read which was a pleasant change from what I typically read. Our female protagonist Edwina is a strong, fiery, yet still "polite" character who toes the line between doing what is expected of a demure lady in society and a well-educated and outspoken woman. As the story progressed I found myself excited to turn the page and see "which" Edwina was going to be the one responding to the various events. I find that most stories of this nature see the male protagonist (especially if from a higher class than the female) trying to browbeat the woman into fitting the appropriate mold and that did not happen here. Rick embraced who Edwina was from the beginning and it was fun to observe their interactions develop.

I will say that I wish a little more had been put into the resolution at the end when Edwina's primary goal seems to have been all-but abandoned. With her being as strong of a female character as she was, I found the resolution to be a little lacking and not in line with her personality. Other than that, I truly enjoyed this story and would read more by this author.

This was a bit too slow for me, and I didn't enjoy the conflicts that caused the 3rd act break-up. Some things were overemphasized to the point of feeling like a drinking game - red hair, green eyes, triplets, strange fevers. I didn't feel a connection to the duke silly enough to lose a letter containing a proposal or to the secretive redhead who travels to accept the proposal of a duke she doesn't know.

Rick, Duke of Stonerick, must marry and marry fast before the next fever catches him off guard. He has no idea when and where the fever, chills, and sweats will happen and he must secure an heir before he succumbs to it. He's young and relatively healthy, but he doesn't want to take any more chances with his health. He chooses a name from a list of young debutantes and sends off a marriage proposal to the lady, sight unseen.

When Edwina Fine receives a marriage proposal from the Duke of Stoneick, she thinks it's a prank until she goes to London to confront the duke. Turns out, the proposal is real and it might be what saves Edwina and her sisters from the poor house. The duke honors the proposal, and Edwina accepts, but will secrets held tightly be their undoing before love has a chance to blossom?

I enjoyed this story although I found Edwina's stubbornness to be quite off-putting. She makes a promise to her dying father to see her sisters married, but she fails to take into account what her sisters want. The big secret that she was a triplet seems far-fetched to me, but I guess superstitions in Regency England were rampant. Rick has kept his own secret, and yet he is angry with Edwina for not revealing who her sisters really were. It just seems like a lot of fuss over nothing IMO. The romance was a slow-burn and that was sweet and what saved the book for me.

This is the 2nd in the Say I Do series, and I will say that I liked this one more than the first one.

And I will also say, that is because I liked our leading lady more than I liked Frederika in book 1

Deathbed promises, illnesses, taboos, Sincerely, The Duke has them all - and a lot more.

I adore Edwina. She is strong willed, takes no crap and will fight tooth and nail for her family - sometimes a little too hard though.

Rick, the Duke of Stonerick marries for his own reasons, but you can feel the spark between him and Edwina from the start, and you know things will get as fiery as Edwina's blazing red hair.

An interesting and fun historical romance. I look forward to more Dukes.

Sincerely, The Duke is book 2 in Amelia Grey’s Regency romance series, Say I Do.

Rick, the Duke of Stonerich, jots off a brief proposal of marriage to Miss Devina Fine, after selecting her name from a list of potential brides compiled by his mother. Rick is ill at the time, and promptly forgets about the incident until Devina shows up at his door several weeks later to inquire if he was serious in his proposal.

I read the first book in this series, and while I enjoyed it, I think I liked this story even better. I found some of the incidents comical, but I don’t want to go into too much detail and ruin the plot for anyone.

Both Rick and Devina had secrets from each other, and needed to learn to trust before their story could come to a happy ending. I understood how Rick felt the need to hide his illness, especially given that he did not know the cause, but I felt like Devina’s secret was nonsensical. Without giving too much away, I realize that at one time, there were some fairly strong superstitions regarding her concerns, but from what I’ve read they were not as prevalent in the Regency period.

I really enjoyed Devina’s sisters, and I hope we get to see their stories at some point.

I recommend this book to lovers of lighter, historical romance with romcom vibes.

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

This is an entertaining, well-written, historical romance novel. It has a likable and engaging female protagonist, an endearing, kind and caring male protagonist, a touch of humor, superstitions, secrets, a heart warming romance, and a happily ever after ending. The author's notes are interesting and informative, and the book quotes at the beginning of each chapter are a nice touch. This is the second entry in Ms. Grey's outstanding Say I Do series, and it can be read and enjoyed as a stand alone. I am looking forward to reading the next entry with great anticipation. St. Martin's Press, Amelia Grey, and NetGalley kindly provided me with an ARC of this wonderful novel, and this is my honest opinion.

Roderick Cosworth, the Duke of Stonerick, has a very insistent mother. He is getting older, has not married, and has no heir, but his cousin has just accomplished this feat. He is being harangued at every turn by the dowager to find a wife. Rather unconventionally, he acquiesces and expects her to see it as a jest and to be forgotten, but....
Miss Edwina Fine has recently received a letter asking for her hand in marriage to a duke she has never met. Edwina and her aunt decide to find out if this is a prank. The two ladies appear at the duke's door. This is where the story begins.
Miss Edwina Fine is the youngest of three girls. She has a big secret, but she needs to find a groom. Rick, the duke, has a quirk or two of his own, but will he deny having proposed?
This has an interesting plot and is a twist on the usual romantic tropes out there, which made it so entertaining.
The two characters are engaging, and their banter is amusing. The additional players, which include two sisters and a few friends, are colorful as well. The heat level is good, not too sweet, and not overly graphic, so most readers should enjoy it as it's well done. I read it in a few hours, and it was a delight. I would definitely recommend it for historical romance readers, especially those interested in something other than the usual trope.

Roderick Cosworth, the Duke of Stonerick, Rick, raised by his mother since his father's died when he wad a baby, Alberta Fellows Cosworth, Dowager Duchess of Stonerick. His friendsWyatt, the Duke of Wyatthaven, and Hurst, the Duke of Hurstbourne are in a shooting club together and have been friends since Aaron School.

Miss Edwina Fine. Youngest of the sisters, Eleonora loves poetry, and Eileen who has a scientific mind, their aunt Mrs. Pauline Castleton. Cousin, Viscount Quintingham, is theirguardian, wants to wash his hands of the three.

Getting pressure from his mother to marry, now that his cousin heir presumptive is married and has a son, gives him a list of eligible ladies to select from. During one of his fevers, he goes down the list and selects one. Liking her name, he hits a note; "Please marry me." And signs it. Somehow it gets mailed.

A lady shows up at his home determined not to leave until she speaks with him. Intrigued, Stonerick steps closer and is shocked he likes the lady. After talking and the letter is revealed, they agree to marry, with CONDITIONS on both sides.

After making a promise to her father on his deathbed, he also tells her way it is her to do this last request. Stonerick, on the other hand, wants an heir in case the fever returns and he dies. With omissions on both sides, married life takes time in adjusting.

With a superstitions mother, three stubborn women with red hair and green eyes, fevers for no reason, and secrets, this books keeps you hoppin! So come join the frolicking wedding, see who puts two and two together, mom's reaction, and Stonerick lose a shooting match!

I absolutely love the Say I Do series! Sincerely, the Duke has two adorable and strong characters. The duke needs a wife desperately for an heir and to please his mother! Edwina needs a husband to fulfill a promise to her father to help her sisters wed. You could say they came together by mistake. Yet, its perfect. The big issue in this delightful romance is Trust – isn’t that important in any relationship! You will appreciate the conundrum that worries Edwina as she strives to protect her sisters. At the same time, Rick is trying to protect the dukedom. Reading through as these two navigate marriage, ‘wooing’ and their relationship has several laugh out loud moments, especially on their wedding night! Even the dowager duchess, Rick’s mom, as a ‘villain’ is not all that horrible. She is rather funny and a bit odd with the misinformation for the time period. All in all, I enjoyed Sincerely just as much as I did Yours Truly, the Duke.

This was such an entertaining read!
Rick, the Duke of Stonerick needs a wife and an heir. He has been having fevers that come and go and wants to get married soon.
His mother has made a list of eligible young ladies of the Ton for him to choose from. He just points to the first name he sees and pens a letter to her asking her to marry him.
When Edwina shows up on his doorstep a few weeks later, he has forgotten all about the letter. However, she produces it and he decides being an honorable person that he must marry her. It doesn't hurt that he is very attracted to Edwina.
I loved the chemistry between Rick and Edwina. They both had secrets that they kept from each other and there were moments where the story was laugh out loud funny!
There were a lot of interesting side characters including Edwina's sisters.
I received an ARC from NetGalley and these are my honest opinions.

I received an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Overall, I thought this was a charming and funny story - the characters were likable and while I wish the romance was a bit faster paced, it was a fun read.

As historical romances go, this one was good. Miss Edwina has a secret and needs to get married before anyone finds out. Rick needs an heir. When these two come together it is purely for practical reasons, but the spark is there and these two don't disappoint. The pace was slow, but it kept my interest and I liked the book altogether.

Sincerely, The Duke is the second novel in the historical romance trilogy Say I Do, which follows a duke who must marry in order to access his wealth. The book features a perfectly matched pair of protagonists, a vividly portrayed supporting cast, and an abundance of potent chemistry and breathtaking sensuality.

Rick, the Duke of Stonerick and Edwina fall into an engagement of convenience that turns real in this nicely crafted and entertaining romance. She's one of a set of red headed green eyed triplets- which makes those who are superstitious think she might be a witch! But of course she's not and she's committed not only to her own happiness but to finding it for her sisters as well. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. Light, fun, good read.

A Historical romance with the Duke and Edwina who is 1/3 of a set of triplets with red hair and green eyes.
A really good romance.Can Edwina f gt her Duke and can her sisters also find someone.
Some people believe they are witches because of being 3 and red hair green eyes.
A really good romance enjoyed the story.
Voluntarily reviewed.

I was drawn in by the unique premise of Sincerely, The Duke. A proposal through an epistle is so romantic and rather funny when the duke doesn't realize his mother sent it on his behalf. These characters had tons of potential, but it wasn't fully utilized. There was a lot of inner monologue and not enough dialogue between the main couple. Their thoughts were full of indecision, but they barely said any words to each other. This was a very sleepy romance and the epitome of a slow burn. Things didn't heat up until the 90% mark, but everyone moves at different paces. I can understand the reason for the slowness, but goodness I swear Edwina was part snail!

Another element I enjoyed but didn't meet my expectations were Edwina's siblings. She was a triplet and looking for potential grooms to pair with her sisters. Unfortunately, her triplets were very aggressive and it was evident why they had difficulty finding matches. They also interrupted at the most inopportune times, which frustrated me as a reader. They thought their red hair and multiple birth status were heralded as bad luck too. They were strange characters, but at least they brought something unique to the stories. I don't believe I'll continue with this author, but I'm always grateful for discovering new authors. I'll add a return to sender stamp to any future letters signed Sincerely, The Duke.

Sweet romance with unusual historic themes

Rick impulsively pens a proposal to one of the ladies on his mother's list of potential brides, never thinking that it would actually be delivered. Edwina has no idea who Rick is or why he sent her a proposal, but her promise to her dying father propels her to accept on the spot. Only she has to explain to him first how she came to be in possession of a letter he cannot recall writing.

A bit of a comedy of errors ensues, all while Edwina is trying to balance her irrational obsession with her sisters' uncooperating choices, and Rick is trying to figure out why he is frequently suffering from debilitating bouts of fever and how that affects the future of his title and estate. Throw in a fair bit of superstitions about redheads and multiple births, and we get a story that tackles unique issues while still delivering an emotionally heart warming romance.

I really enjoyed the way both main characters were open and direct with each other, about most things, and when the secrets came out they faced them head on. I love stories that start with a "practical" approach to marriage that soon turns into a deep and abiding love, and this one beautifully accomplishes that goal.

It's a delightful follow-up to the wonderful first book, and I heartily recommend it for anyone who loves reading historical romances. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

I thoroughly enjoyed Sincerely, The Duke by Amelia Grey. What a wonderful, witty, and charming story.

After selecting a name from a suitable list of ladies making their debut, Rick—the Duke of Stonerick— writes to Miss Edwina Fine asking for her hand in marriage. All of this to appease his mother who keeps harping on the fact that she doesn't have grandchildren and an heir to the dukedom. When Miss Edwina Fine shows up at his doorstep, they're both surprised by the immediate attraction and agree to the marriage. But both are hiding secrets.

I loved both Rick and Edwina! The chemistry between them was undeniable and I enjoyed their banter. The supporting characters were great and I cannot wait for the next book in the series.

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The points of conflict in this story were absurd. Red hair, triplets, mysterious fever. Attraction but no communication. Sorry to say after chapter 2 it was a DNF for me.
