Sabrina Jeffries introduces a family of dukes in Project Duchess. Fletcher “Grey” Pryde, the fifth Duke of Greycourt and eldest brother of the clan, leaves London to support his newly widowed mother. Her other children and relatives are with her, including Beatrice Wolfe, the cousin of Grey’s half brother. Outspoken Beatrice catches his attention, and Grey volunteers to prepare her for her society debut. Through dancing and etiquette lessons, they grow closer, and though whispers grow louder regarding Grey’s stepfather’s death, suspicions don’t get in the way of passion. An excellent blend of great characters and witty dialogue make this a delicious first in a new series
Valiant Women is a vital and engrossing attempt to correct the record and rightfully celebrate the achievements of female veterans of World War II.
