LADY + DUKE = TRUE LOVE?

Lady Daphne Forysthe is a brilliant young math prodigy with a burning passion for puzzles. When she learns that the library belonging to her benefactress houses the legendary Cameron Cipher a mathematical p that, once solved, holds the key to great riches Daphne is on the case. Unfortunately, her race to unlock the cipher s code is continually thwarted by a deliciously handsome distraction she hadn t counted on. . .and cannot resist.

Dalton Beauchamp, the Duke of Maitland, is curious as to why Daphne is spending so much time snooping around his aunt s bookshelves. He s even more intrigued by her bold yet calculating manner: she is unapologetic about her secret quest. . .and the fiery attraction that develops between them both. But how can they concentrate on decoding a mathematical mystery once the prospect of true love enters the equation?



Seriously Lady Daphne is brilliant but hysterical in her lack of understanding how to relate to people. I can honestly say I know several people just like her and at times they frustrate me and other times they astound me with their high intelligence and way of looking at certain things. So yes Daphne's character is relatable and well written. I also felt that a situation that happened in her past was brought into the storyline with supreme finesse showing part of why she acts a bit strangely and also enriched the mystery part of this book.

Dalton Beauchamp, the Duke of Maitland, is just yummy and ever female reader will love him right from the start. His character is honest, caring and thoughtful. Additionally intriguing about him is how he takes his childhood and creates a man with integrity as an adult.

There are lots of secondary characters in this story and all of they are fully developed adding full body to an already fun romantic mystery book.

I give this 5 STARS for being aentertaining hot hot read that keeps the reader guessing to the very end who did what, when, where and why.


Received an advance reader copy in exchange for a fair review.


My Reviews Of A Studies in Scandal Series 
Ready Set Rogue - My Review
Duke with Benefits - My Review


Manda Collins is the author of The Lords of Anarchy series, which includes Good Earl Gone Bad and A Good Rake is Hard to Find, as well as several other Regency-set romances. She spent her teen years wishing she’d been born a couple of centuries earlier, preferably in the English countryside. Time travel being what it is, she resigned herself to life with electricity and indoor plumbing, and read lots of books. When she’s not writing, she’s helping other people use books, as an academic librarian.
