    Maybe 3.5 stars
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2017*

While I liked this book, I didn't love it and I was a bit disappointed.Anyone who has read the previous books has for all intents and purposes, read 75% of this book. I knew before I started this book that James and Meredith had a past and that there was a strong attraction between them. And after the antics of his sisters, I fully expected James to have an equally entertaining book, but that is not how this story played out.James and Meredith love each other, but are convinced they cannot be together because he is a Duke and she is a commoner. The entire book is them wavering between love and duty. I understood the difficulties they would have if they married, I understood the social ramifications and even the need to protect his sisters by not causing a scandal, but that was the entire book - they are attracted to each other, but he must choose duty over love.There is a a lot of rehashing the events from the previous books, a lot of longing, some steamy-ish love scenes, a lot of heartache, a little bit of a surprise at the end and finally a HEA. I also found it a bit ironic that while pounding into James head the necessity of knowing formal address - the examples they used were wrong and used incorrect formal address - now to be fair, this was an uncorrected ACR and that may be corrected by publication (fingers crossed). Overall the writing was good, but I felt like this story was already told in the previous books and nothing really new or exciting happened in this story.*I am voluntarily leaving a review for an UNCORRECTED eARC provided to me by Edelweiss and the publisher*

    Satisfying Finale to Adored Series
  

*by P***H on Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2017*

I adore the Keeping Up with the Cavendishes series, and this fourth book is a worthy and fulfilling finale. This could probably be read as a decent standalone, but I do not recommend that because to do so would be to miss out on one of the most unique and appealing aspects of this book and series.There are four Cavendish siblings, specifically James and his three sisters. Each book in this series focuses on one of the siblings, with the twist that the stories occur simultaneously. It is beyond fun to read about events, including a particular ball, from the different perspective of each sibling.Adding to the fun of this series is that each sibling is a strong and intriguing character, engaged in supremely interesting situations and encountering worthy love matches. As Americans recently transplanted to England after James unexpectedly becomes the Duke of Durham, opportunities abound for clashes of will and the potential for scandal.This is the most serious book of the quartet, partly due to James's personality and his position as the newly named Duke. He has much to wrestle with, as does his love, Meredith, who is employed as a companion in his household. The affection and relationship among the Cavendish siblings is a strength throughout this series, as is their strong spirit. I was full of anticipation for this story from the first book of the series, and was not disappointed. This tied everything together in a satisfying way.

    Love This Duke!
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2017*

I liked that the Duke came from America, where his father, second son of a Duke, ran off from his home, to follow his heart, his true love! There James, who loves horses, his sisters were all born. Now, they must learn all the rules of the Ton! James, just the man, meets a beautiful young lady on his way to London, one thing leads to another, she & he end up in the same room! She leaves before he wakes the next morning. Meredith is shocked at her behavior, how could she let her guard down to that point? The Duchess, is prepared to do whatever it takes, to change these wild Americans into proper behavior, of the Elite of English Society! She has devoted her life to the continuation of the Dukedom, and she is determined to see it survive! I like Josie!I highly recommend! Thanks! Enjoy!
