Book Review: Let Sleeping Dukes Lie by Emily Windsor

Let Sleeping Dukes Lie (Rules of the Rogue #2) by Emily Windsor
Genre: Adult Fiction (Historical Romance)
Date Published: May 21, 2018
Publisher: Self

Miss Aideen Quinlan can’t quite express why she feels the need to taunt, tease and generally annoy the Duke of Rakecombe. Maybe it was for the heart-racing spar of words that always ensued, or maybe it was to see the duke’s broad fist clench on his ebony cane, green eyes glittering.

Or maybe it was because she was unable to erase the memory of his vehement kiss…

An unlikely couple.

Torn between his world of espionage and this unquenchable passion, the duke still refuses to lower his fierce defences.

If Aideen is to capture her resistant duke’s troubled heart, it is she who must follow the Rules of the Rogue.

Resistance is futile…

A sensual Regency Romance with warmth and wit, this story also includes unpalatable chefs, a darling of the Season with a secondary love story, deadly walking canes and sheep…

Let Sleeping Dukes Lie is the second book in the Rules of the Rogue series by Emily Windsor. This is Alex and Aideen's story. We met them in the first book, and I just knew their story was going to be a great one.. and it really was. I love her spunk and temper. Mix that with the grumpy bear that is Alex, and you get some very entertaining moments. Alex made me so mad sometimes, but bear with him. He has his reasons. The steaminess and intrigue of Let Sleeping Dukes lie completely pulled me into their lives.

Let Sleeping Dukes Lie by Emily Windsor was kindly provided to me by the author for review. The opinions are my own.

Check out my review of the first book in this series!

Emily grew up in the north of England on a diet of historical romance and classical mythology.

Unfortunately, you couldn’t study Georgian slang or the Regency London Season, so she did the next best thing and gained a degree in Classics and History instead. This ‘led’ to an eight-year stint in engineering.

Having left city life, she now lives in a dilapidated farmhouse in the country where her days are spent writing, fixing the leaky roof, battling the endless vegetation and finding pictures of well-tied cravats.
