Last Duke Standing by Cheryl Bolen

Alex never thought he would be the Duke of Fordham.  After all, he was the third son.  When his slightly older brother dies in his sleep, Alex is suddenly the Duke.  One of the worst tasks he has to do is tell his brother's fiance that he has died.

Lady Georgiana Fenton is shocked when she is told that her fiance has passed in his sleep.  She demands to see the body and when she does, she tells the new duke that he was smothered in his sleep.

Alex decides to secretly investigate his brother's murder after the physician confirms that Lady Georgiana is correct.  As they investigate, it becomes harder to resist the attraction while Georgina has to eliminate Alex from her list of suspects.

I enjoyed the characters in this book.  I liked how Georgiana and Alex worked well together and how they learned to compromise.  The murder mystery added an element of suspense to the romance.  It was a great story.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC provided by NetGalley and the publisher.  Thank you!
