When I received this ARC, I was so thrilled.  I have loved the Dukes of War series since the beginning.  I picked this book up and didn't stop reading until I was done.  And I didn't want it to end. I loved Daphne's passion for her causes.  She doesn't want to give them up for marriage.  Bartholomew is a tortured hero.  He is struggling to adjust to his return to England and the loss of his twin.  I am anxiously awaiting the next in the series.  I hope Captain Steele gets his own novel!

I received this ARC from the author via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  Thank you!
