Heiress in Red Silk by Madeline Hunter
3.0

Heiress in Red silk is the second book in the series A duke's Heiress and it's my first one that I've read in over 6 years by the author. After so many thrillers and contemporary romance, it was time for a change and this historical romance book sounded very good.
Rosamund Jameson is the milliner that receives a large inheritance from a duke she barely knew.
Kevin Radnor is a scientist and he always looks for new ways to improve his inventions and he's immerse in his research so much that he doesn't want to accept the new challenge that Rosamund is proving to be.
While the banter and their interactions were very on spot and entertaining, I personally couldn't feel or see any attraction or chemistry between the two of them.
Some twists and mysterious turns, more of what happened and what's to come next, this story packs most of the elements for a great romance but unfortunately it didn't live to my expectations as I've hoped it would be.
That being said, I'm sure many readers will enjoy it more and I will be giving another try to future books by the author.
