Read my #BookReview of The Duke's Wayward Wallflower (Charmed, I'm Sure Book 1) by Maggie Dallen

 
The Duke's Wayward Wallflower 
(Charmed, I'm Sure Book 1) 
By Maggie Dallen


“A Duke's taciturn demeanor does not necessarily indicate a black heart.
Although . . . sometimes it does. Tread with care.” — Lady Greta, a truly dreadful chaperone

There's no love lost between this shy wallflower and society's most formidable duke. The Duke of Mandrick has made it clear he's only aiding Felicity's successful entrance into society because he's taken pity on his friend's poor country relation.

Luckily for Felicity, her chaperone Lady Greta has agreed to tutor her in the art of flirtation. And since the coldhearted duke is the last man to fall for her charms, he's the perfect man to practice on. However, when her attempts to flirt are an epic fail, it's the duke who comes to her rescue. And when she faints on the dance floor in front of all of society, it's his strong arms that are holding her when she wakes. Gazing up into his warm, dark eyes, she's left with one crucial question.

If the duke caught her on the dance floor . . . why does she still feel like she's falling?

My Review 
The Duke's Wayward Wallflower 
📚📚📚📚 = A really great read.

Be prepared to be swept off your feet by this beautifully written sweet romance. 

The story is as one would expect from a Regency Romance. There is a dashing, if not somewhat aloof Duke and a poor woman who has recently lost her father and gone to live with her cousins. Never the twain shall meet, but of course, they do, and they then spend the rest of the novel trying to ignore their mounting passion for each other. 

I read this novel in an afternoon and I thought it was very well written, with likeable characters. The story may have been somewhat predictable but I still enjoyed it immensely. I will certainly be looking out for other books in the series. 

If you love a good old-fashioned Regency Romance then you will certainly enjoy The Duke's Wayward Wallflower.
