The Duchess Deal by Tessa Dare
3.0
Here’s to my first ever historical romance!
I had…expectations, but I guess I didn’t truly know what to expect, soo I am quite disappointed right now.
This is not to say I hated it necessarily, the protagonist Emma was quite likeable, I enjoyed the story of her past, too. And the girl squad that formed in the middle of the book is to die for.
However, everything happened just way too fast for my liking, I guess I’m a slow-burn type of gal. And I’m sorry but I can’t get over the male character’s fixation with her breasts. I understand, he is a man and whatnot but him evaluating her rack every two pages is not only not sexy, it is straight-up creepy.
Actual rating: 2.5 stars
