xennicole 's review for:
When a Duke Loves a Governess
by Olivia Drake
The final book in the Unlikely Duchesses series.
Born on the wrong side of the sheets, Tessa James grew up on the wrong side of the tracks and decided to find her father with the knowledge of his coat of arms on a necklace from her mother. She really wants a small loan to open her own millinery shop from her father - that is all, nothing else. To find him, she decides to pretend to be an experienced governess to a child that sends governesses away weekly.
With tough love, Tessa wins over Sophy, an angry five-year-old girl, and then also manages to win over Guy Whitby, the new Duke of Carlin.
There is a mystery involving treasure maps and the Carlin men's unlikely deaths as a secondary storyline.
Overall, it was a good romance, I enjoyed it and read it in one sitting, but I felt the characters were flat.
I received an ARC from Netgalley and St. Martin's for an honest review.
