About book This Duchess Of Mine (Duchess Tambatan Hati) (2011)
This book has an issue, adultery, that I don't care for. However, I did really like the book. The heroine was enamored with her sudden husband, who then rebuffed her in a manner that led her to leave for France for years. While there she developed herself as a desirable woman, only returning home at her husband's request to create an heir. They each have cheated on each other in the past, which I know was relatively common in those days of arranged marriages. And, since the cheating was in the past, it didn't bother me so much. What was most enjoyable was the duchess's maneuvering to break her husband out of his career straightjacket and seduce him. Boring. There is no other word to describe this. The plot was incostitent, the characters were scandalously stupid. The heroine showed intent to have an affair with the hero's best friend (because I can't term a blindfolded chess match in a bedchamber as anything else) and it seems to be known to almost everyone and the hero took it in stride. They planeed on wooing each other but I didn't see anything like that rather they went on talking of how their affairs affected each other. Then the hero had to have a life threatning ailment. Guess that is what brought them together. The friend realised he wasn't IN LOVE with the heroine and everything is good in wonderland.!?
