This is not a time period I have read much about. It was really interesting to learn of this secret marriage. There was more romance to the story than I‘d expected. But it was still interesting. There were times that the story moved a bit slowly, though. I also can‘t say I really liked either main character, but I was still interested to read that this had happened at all.

The Girl in the #Fireplace is still my favourite ever Doctor Who episode, which is centred around Madame de Pompadour. Never tire of watching it.

🧐Starchy starchy duke with a quizzing glass
😶‍🌫️Lady Heroine in disguise: she works in a
seamstress shop but ends up as the duke's nurse (it's a long story but I don't want to spoil it;
🤕Sick-care comfort
This is one of my book exceptions because usually I
don't like the mistress trope but here it's wonderfully
done. The best part is when this duke
that uses his quizzing glass to intimidate everyone
catches feelings🎉🤩 it‘s glorious!

The characters are off - not believable. I decided to bail. #goodreadsgiveaway

Set during the early years of Louis XIV's reign. I enjoyed this historical fiction but liked Koen's trilogy about Charles Stuart better.

I was in the mood for some angst ridden old school romance and this was perfect. Mistresses, Greek tycoons, accidental pregnancy and amnesia. Crazy fun. #romance #romantsy
