Sweet and hot. I loved Tunbury and it was so satisfying to watch him embrace himself and shrug off his crappy trustees. Delilah was a delight.

I wish Nicola Davidson wrote longer books. These novellas are so wonderful, but they don't make much sense. How can a virgin man - who's been sexually repressed!!! - be a pull out king AND natural dom???? Like this character needed a lot more smoothing and investigating than was given.
Delilah was wonderful.

This was a delightfully sex-positive love story between a pleasure-house madame and a sheltered duke. I really appreciated Davidson's exploration of sexual shame in Bennett's storyline, and the ways in which Delilah helps him to gain confidence through self-acceptance. Bennett's sister and brother-in-law make fantastic side characters, and their appearances in the final scenes were laugh-out-loud funny. I thoroughly enjoyed this Christmas-time novella!
