"With Boyfriend Material, Alexis Hall delivered the funniest rom-com of 2020. Now his beautiful and moving new historical romance, which has just enough humor to lighten the angst, may be the sweetest book of this summer. In A Lady for a Duke, friends long thought lost are found and slowly, gingerly, become lovers. Viola Carroll, a veteran of the Napoleonic wars, was long presumed dead. Injured on the battlefield, she gave up her family, wealth and title to live as her true self. Then she returns to public life after years of absence and finds love with her grief-stricken best friend who’s still mourning her."
