Synopsis

One of Daphne Wade's guilty pleasures is to watch the Duke of Tremore as he works, shirtless, on the excavation site of his ducal estate. Anthony Courtland is by far the most exciting and handsome man she has ever known, and she dreams of one day being able to speak with him without getting tongue tied.

Anthony, meanwhile, only sees Daphne as a hard worker on his excavation team. He considers her a plain young lady and says so in a careless remark to a friend, unaware that Daphne is outside the library door, her heart shattering to pieces. So Daphne decides she will not be so silly any longer. She begins to be tutored in the social graces, forcing Anthony to see the beauty who has been right in front of his eyes.

4 stars This was such a sweet romance about an overlooked heroine who have a cute crush on the self absorbed duke who barely notice her. I loved how it all started with an unrequited love, then how the heroine decided to give up on him, then watching him notice her and how amazing she is and trying t......more

5 stars – Historical Romance This is a delightful, entertaining, feel-good romance about a Plain Jane antiquities restorer who secretly lusts/loves her boss Anthony, the dashing Duke of Tremore, and finally manages to turn his cynical, conceited head her way (and twist his emotions in the process) wh......more

Goodreads review by Beatriz on May 02, 2020

Pero el encanto viene de la mano de sus personajes, sus diálogos y las geniales situaciones que crea, donde es imposible no emocionarse o esbozar una sonrisa en más de u......more
