The Determined Duchess by Erica Monroe
***copy provided by publisher through NetGalley***
This one was even worse than its predecessor.
The heroine was a cold, emotionally-stinted bitch, but without the requisite explanation as to why she was that way. I guess Ms Monroe wanted her to come across as eccentric, but the girl was just a cold, emotionally-stinted bitch. Especially once she turned her eye onto the hero as a replacement for the corpse she's been trying to resurrect for the past six months.
The hero was flat and one-dimensional, the "romance" completely nonexistent...The entire story was an utter disappointment.
