Description

From a New York Times bestselling author, the much-anticipated third novel in the Greycourt series.
 
Cold and brooding, Julian Greycourt, the heir to the Windemere dukedom, has always known that his uncle the duke was responsible for his mother’s death. Now he’s determined to exact revenge against his uncle—if he can find the proof. But Julian hides a secret so explosive it will destroy him if it’s ever revealed, and the duke is watching. The last thing he needs is a distractingly sensual woman whose very presence threatens to destroy his plans.
 
Sunny and cheerful, Lady Elspeth de Moray doesn’t know why her brother and Julian fell out all those years ago, but she can’t let the autocratic man get in the way of her mission: to retrieve an ancient family text that she believes is in one of the Windemere libraries. Locating the tome, however, proves trickier than she anticipated, and at each turn, she’s thrown together with the maddingly mysterious Julian. And the temptation to give in to her family’s greatest enemy grows stronger with each intriguing encounter…

Elizabeth Hoyt is BACK, y'all! I've read everything she's written and this felt both familiar (gritty, violent Georgian Era London, powerful men and the independent women who love them) but also like nothing I've ever read from her before. Look, this is the 21-year-old sunshine debutante Dom paired with the 33-year-old grumpy heir presumptive to a dukedom alpha sub I never expected to read, and holy sh*t if I didn't love it.

Lady Elspeth is the sister of Julian's childhood BFF Ran. If you read the first book in the series (Not the Duke's Darling), you know that Ran was accused of killing Julian's sister and beaten almost to death; this kicked off a family feud that's been going on for over a decade when this book opens. Elspeth was raised unconventionally by "Wise Women" in Scotland. Her current quest involves finding a manuscript that she thinks belongs to Julian's family. He's also looking for a different book in his family's libraries. This leads to a lot of close proximity in several libraries and a few close encounters over salacious literature (we ARE reading a Hoyt, if you please!).

There's some plot around assassins sent after both Elspeth and Julian, but the meat (heh) of the book involves the D/s relationship between the two. I was completely convinced by their dynamic. Honestly I never thought I'd write the words "Hoyt alpha sub," or that I would be that into them, but this is where we all live now.

This objective review is based on a complimentary copy of the novel.

Different. She really is No Ordinary Duchess. It does not show at the first part of the book’. That is where the set up for the two main characters meet and sparks fly. Then together away from London things changed. Really liked the difference Hats off to the author .
