In the first story, The Will to Live by Grace Burrowes, the Earl of Ramsdale attempts to translate his uncle’s will in an effort to find clues to the location of one of the sections of The Duke. In an effort to hire a translator he finally finds that the Professor’s daughter Philomena is the most talented translator.
As they work together on the translation, Grace Burrowes shows her talent to witty characters. She writes wonderful, intelligent men and woman who can converse on any topics. As they search for the book they find the hidden feelings and love they each deserve.
In the second story, How to Steal a Duke, Shana Galen unfolds a delightful tale of a Duke who is intent on finding a section of The Duke. HE would even go so far as to hire a cat burglar to break into a castle in Cornwall to accomplish it. Luckily, as he is driving home, a cat burglar drops into his path.
Shana’s characters are delightful. The Duke is used to getting his way in everything but Rosalyn won’t bend to his will. As they barter back and forth about what the plan is you can’t help but love these characters. The banter turns to love before they even know it.
I haven’t read many books by the last author Carolyn Jewel, but her addition to this collection, The Viscount’s First Kiss was a delight. Viscount Daunt has been in love with his neighbor for years but she was married to his friend. Now that she has been a widow for 2 years he is finally wondering if he can let her know the truth. Like Daunt, Magdalene is also a lover of books and agrees to help him find The Duke in a collection of books he recently purchased. The interplay between the two of them is delightful to watch unfold. She is unconvinced that someone as popular as him could ever feel anything for her. He is hesitant to press his feelings. Watching them interact to find The Duke while being threatened by someone trying to steal it. This was the perfect end to the trio of stories.
