On a summer evening in 1889, when physician Aurora Montalban Wright demands one evening of pleasure, on her terms, Apollo César Sinclair Robles (the newly appointed Duke of Annan) readily agrees. What Apollo does not expect is to find himself yearning for the prickly woman who would rather risk her life and reputation to help women take control of their own bodily autonomy than live comfortably off her entitlement. When a dangerous man from Aurora’s past threatens to destroy her practice and her freedom, Apollo whisks them both from Paris to the French Riviera, where he intends to prove that Aurora is his heart’s desire and that she would make the perfect duchess, no matter what society may think.
VERDICT Herrera caps off her mighty “Las Leonas” series (following An Island Princess Starts a Scandal) with a heartbreakingly timely showcase of love triumphing in a world full of dangerous injustices. Recommended for readers who are craving emotionally fulfilling and steamy historical romances that do not shy away from the realities of the era.
