Synopsis

USA Today bestselling author Michelle McLean turns the Duke trope on its head with a witty, laugh-out-loud Regency perfect for fans of Eloisa James and Sarah MacLean.

As the middle—and least marriageable—sister in a bevy of swans, Lavinia Wynnburn is quite content being the odd duck out. This way, she's free to commit social faux pas without anyone much noticing. Until the Duke of Beaubrooke turns up the morning after a ball, asking for her hand in marriage.

Alexander Reddington doesn't particularly care for social niceties, nor is he particularly good at them. But now that the spare has become the heir, he must marry . . . and soon. When he stumbles into the same corner as a socially awkward wallflower, he knows he's found the perfect wife: one who won't bother him to attend every simpering event of the season.

Only, Alexander's shy and pretty new wife is finding her new position surprisingly exciting and keeps accepting every invitation that flutters past their door. And worse luck, he might even be falling for her. Now he must hide the truth about why he really proposed . . . before his unexpectedly happy marriage is dashed to pieces.

Contains mature themes.

Four Weddings and a Duke starts with a sweet meet-cute and unexpected proposal. Lavinia and Alex seem like a match made in heaven. They are both solitary and intellectual, and they connect instantly.

Goodreads review by Bonnie on June 30, 2023

Thanks to NetGalley for a copy of this story and this is my freely given opinion. This was a rather sweet, love story that had a marriage of convenience, wallflower blooms theme to it, with a touch of mean girls. Alex Reddington, the new Duke of Beaubrooke never expected to have to take up the respon......more

Goodreads review by Niki (mustreadalltheromance) on July 31, 2023

As the middle of three sisters, Lady Olivia Wynnburn has always been rather overlooked. She’s content enough with being relegated to the corners, that way no one notices her social mistakes. But all that changes when the Duke of Beaubrooke selects her over her sisters to be his bride. Alexander Reddi......more
