The Duchess Deal

So look.

🤷

I don't think this offering put much effort into the actual characters. And I can let the plausible set ups go with fairy tales, plus her meet cutes are absolutely the best. But the supporting characters didn't ring true at all, and were really there so they could tell us what was happening without having to delve into making it happen.

I didn't buy his baggage. I didn't really buy hers. Kinda seemed like he loved her for loving him because... Well lots of because. She thought he was sexy. He realized she thought he was sexy. Happily ever after.

And, true to the book, that's all the effort I got here despite an enjoyable and even charming read, my bells weren't a-ringing...or something.
