Loading... Tall, Duke, and Dangerousby Megan Frampton
   None No current Talk conversations about this book.   ) thewestwing | Aug 12, 2022 |  Whomp. Whomp. This was disappointing. The low rating of this novel, currently 3.50, is completely justifiable. The characters were bland as hell and more forgettable than the side characters that probably had more personality than our duo ever could, the romance and the relationship which had no real chemistry or connection was laughable, the rags to riches Cinderella storyline wasn’t thoroughly thought out, writing was hast and that ending—ha! Everything consider, this wasn’t good at all. (  ) ayoshina | Jul 31, 2022 | Nash, the “dangerous” Duke of Malvern, has always bristled against the rules of English society. Hot tempered and fearful of becoming like his brutish late father, he lives a life of too much responsibility and too little joy. And although he’s vowed to never marry, a duke has a duty—and there’s only one way to get himself an heir and a spare. So, Nash reluctantly takes a look around at society’s available young ladies to see who might be willing to put up with his one-word answers and frequent glowers. She longs for love… After the death of her father and wicked stepmother, Ana Maria goes from virtual servant to lady-in-training, and while society life has its benefits—gorgeous gowns! —its restrictive rules stifle her sprit. And when her independent actions put her in danger, her half-brother insists Nash teach her some self-defense. While most of London’s ladies find Nash intimidating, she only sees a man who needs introducing to all the joys life has to offer. So, although officially they are coming together for fighting lessons, unofficially their physical contact begins to blur the line between friendship and begins to grown into something more… Thank you, Goodreads and William Morrow for the chance to read Tall Duke and Dangerous #2 in the A Hazards of Dukes series! “No please, she wanted to say. Don’t look at me that way. Don’t ruin this moment by regretting what I’ve done.” I love a historical romance just like everyone else anyone who loves to read has at least read 1 historical book on their read shelf. I'm not really sure what I think of this book. It was ok. I just couldn’t seem to get into it. I can't really say why maybe I just wasn’t in the right mind set to read this type of book. I don’t know the only thing that comes to mind when I think about it is that I would have liked to be able to understand the characters more. But when it's all said and done it was ok. Happy reading everyone! ( ) jacashjoh | Jun 8, 2021 | Ana Maria is a lady who grew up as a servant in her own home. While this sounds like the beginning of a Cinderella tale, in fact Ana Maria works hard to save herself and while she has a lot of people rooting for her, she refuses to allow them to fix her problems or decide for her what she needs. She is however, in love with her brother’s friend, Nash. Nash is a broken Duke, his father is abusive and while he loves Ana Marie he doesn’t know how to identify or speak about his feelings and he’s worried he might accidentally hurt her because he’s too much like his father. Refreshingly, they both work on themselves and grow in order to get to their happily ever after. ( ) KateHonig | Dec 3, 2020 | Nash, the “dangerous” Duke of Malvern, silent behemoth from a young boy, fearful of his father and then fearful of becoming like his father, takes his duties seriously. Against his better wishes and at his grandmother's urging Nash decides he needs an heir. Ana Maria, glass half full, determined young woman, in true Cinderella fashion finds herself having to learn to be a lady, and not a servant. When her behavior has her half-brother deciding that lessons in self defense are needed, and that Nash is the very man, that's when both Nash and Ana's lives become slightly unhinged and way more interesting. A fun read that had me laughing and exclaiming. In fact I'm going back to read the first in this series. A HarperCollins ARC via NetGalley ( ) eyes.2c | Nov 3, 2020 | no reviews | add a review
