But Fate has other plans in the form of Caroline's ruggedly handsome brother, the Duke of Mountjoy. One day at Bitterward and Lily can't deny the sizzling attraction between her and the roguish duke. Nothing can come of it, of course. She's not looking for entanglements and he's practically engaged.

I'm jealous of all of the adult romance books you picked up! I'm starting to envy anyone who has time to read adult because I feel as if I'm stuck in the world of YA books because my blog is mostly YA.

I hope you enjoy all of them!

Happy reading!
