Booklog 16/2018 - Julia Quinn: The Lost Duke of Wyndham - Two Dukes of Wyndham #1

The Lost Duke of WyndhamWhen a dashing soldier-turned-highwayman stops the carriage carrying the dowager Duchess of Wyndham and her paid companion, Grace, there are two revelations. The dowager recognises highwayman Jack Audley as her grandson and Grace recognises that she's not immune to Jack's charms. But the problem is that if Jack is truly who the dowager thinks he is, he's the rightful Duke of Wyndham and will displace Thomas, the current duke. And Grace might fall in love with a charming rogue, but she knows she's not high-born enough for a duke.

I really enjoyed this book, but haven't been able to bring myself to read the second book in this series because it's the same story from a different viewpoint. Reading other reviews it seems that the version most readers prefer is the first oine they read, so I'll stick at this. Always happy to read other Julia Quinn books, however, despite the occasional Americanisms that don't quite fit.
