Cinderella and the Duke by Lydia Drake
3.0
funny lighthearted medium-paced

A fun historical romance nod to the Cinderella story!

A marriage of convenience for Gregory, a Duke with a rakish past and Julia, a woman kept out of society by her stepmother. The Duke is in awe of this woman who people deem as plain. She's witty and sharp and kind.

What I really loved about this story is how Julia and her stepsister have such a great relationship. While I liked the romance growing between the Duke and Julia, I wish there was more to see of the sister relationship.
