This first novel in a new Regency series from
USA Today bestselling author Grace
Burrowes is a spinoff of her highly popular Windham series.
THEY CALL HIM THE
DUKE OF MURDER...
The gossips
whisper that the new Duke of Murdoch is a brute, a murderer, and even worse—a
Scot. They say he should never be trusted alone with a woman. But Megan Windham
sees in Hamish something different, someone different.
No one was fiercer
at war than Hamish MacHugh, though now the soldier faces a whole new battlefield:
a London Season. To make his sisters happy, he'll take on any challenge—even
letting their friend Miss Windham teach him to waltz. Megan isn't the least bit
intimidated by his dark reputation, but Hamish senses that she's fighting
battles of her own. For her, he'll become the warrior once more, and for her,
he might just lose his heart.

REVIEW:
From the start it was fun to visit with the Windham's again. Most of the original cast from the first series make an appearance in the book and try to play a part in the match making. Once again there are Windham daughters who need husbands. While the main Windham family have all found their HEA there are some cousins who have not and they surely cannot find their soul mate without help. That help is something that Megan Windham does not want or need. When she meets Hamish MacHugh she finds just what she is looking for. She sees the man behind the gossip and she likes what she sees. He sees someone who can be his salvation but their path is not without problems. Look for a great story full of tension and romance. One of my very favorite things is how Hamish manages to change the titles of the Windham men to something similar but funny. I got several good laughs out of those scenes. Burrowes does a good job of injecting humor into some of the serious moments in the story. Megan is just the first of 3 sisters to find that perfect husband. I look forward to more great scenes with all of the Windham's.

GRACE BURROWES TOP FIVE PLACES TO TRAVEL FOR INSPIRATION
I asked Grace what her top five places to travel for
inspiration were and here are her answers.?
Between the pages of a good book. I have learned so
much, had such fun, and gathered up so many cool ideas by reading. Who needs
frequent flier miles when we have all these lovely books?
Anywhere on horseback. When I’m in the saddle, my
mind works differently. I might arrive to the barn stuck for where my
manuscript should go next, but as I’m trotting this way and that, nonverbally
communicating with my trusty steed, ideas bubble up. I love that. I think for
many people, this happens while jogging, gardening, or otherwise being absorbed
in a pleasure.
The United Kingdom. Many of my books are set in the
UK, and I go there every chance I get. I never know what snippet of
conversation I’ll overhear, road sign I’ll spot, or joke I’ll be told that
simply MUST find its way into a book.
Roadtrips! I’ve driven from DC to San Diego and
back more times than I can count. Behind the wheel of my truck, rolling down
the interstates, I often get to thinking, and thinking leads to imagining, and
that leads to interesting books.
Armstrong Redwoods State Nature Reserve
(California). I love big trees, and the citizens of this forest are very big
and very old. They humble me and put my little worries into perspective. I can
hear myself think when I’m around big trees, and I’m less anxious. I don’t know
why that is, but it’s been true about me from little up.
