Something in the Heir
by Suzanne Enoch
Every Duke Has His Day by Suzanne Enoch was a quick and enjoyable read.
Michael Blumley is the Duke of Loriton and despite his title, he is considered an eccentric by his peers in the ton because of his love of science and the way he acts at times. He truly has no interest in Society but when his favorite aunt, Mary, Lady Harris, leaves her precious, well-behaved black poodle, Lancelot in his care while she travels his life takes an interesting turn.
Elizabeth Dockering is in her second season and is adored by everyone. It's expected that she will make a match this season but whoever she decides upon will have to win over her dog, a black poodle named Galahad. Unfortunately he does seem to push the limits with everyone and especially has it in for one of Bitsy's biggest admirers, Peter Cordray.
When Peter hires a thief to steal Galahad so he can win Elizabeth over without having to fight Galahad off, things take a turn. Little did he know that when Elizabeth and Michael crossed paths in the park, they ended up with each other's dogs and by the time Michael can resolve the issue, Peter's thief has stolen Lancelot instead of Galahad.
I loved how Enoch introduced these characters to each other and the way they end up working together and ultimately coming to rely on one another to find the dogs, was well done. The friendship and relationship were believable and I especially enjoyed the way Elizabeth and Michael were when they were together. They weren't afraid to challenge each other.
If you're looking for a fairly lighthearted historical romance consider picking this one up. I'll be keeping an eye out for more from Enoch in the future and already have some of her backlist on my TBR.
Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the copy in exchange for an honest review.
