Review: Bringing Down the Duke

Bringing Down the Duke Bringing Down the Duke by Evie Dunmore
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Suffragette, Annabelle, has an accidental encounter in Parliament Square with the Duke of Montgomery as she hands out leaflets supporting British women's right to vote. This chance meeting leads to a complicated association, with Annabelle making tough choices about her personal future.
I liked this - mixed late-19th century politics with historical figures (Queen Victoria) and a group of young women who are advocating for women's rights. Throw in a handsome, sexy Duke with eyes for a suffragette, and it was a heated, romantic, tense, satisfying coupling.
Last book finished in 2020.
