A Spinster's Guide to Danger and Dukes by Manda Collins was a freaking delight.
I can't get over how well this story was written. She knows how throw some tropes together and makes one hell of a page-turner.
Our characters were are Poppy and Langham who I must say I loved.
The banter and slow burn romance historical romance was very well developed.
They are multi-layered, and intriguing.
I enjoyed the setting. Being in England 1867 was too much fun.
The descriptions was amazing. I could picture everything so vividly.
This was a quick and fun historical romance.
Her world building, depth of characters, mystery, and of course the romance was on point.
And writing style is light and witty. And the plot is well-paced, full of red herrings, attraction, and of course a touch of romance.

I really enjoyed this period romance mystery. Well written characters, a smart, witty, self sufficient heroine had me looking forward to reading it every chance I got. Reminiscent of Julia Quinn's Bridgerton book series and Deanna Raybourn's Speedwell Series,

I was so excited to see this available on NetGalley - I very much enjoyed the first 2 books in their series by Amanda Collins.

Poppy is a great and very believable character who cares very much for her sister - who has been falsely accused of killing her husband. In the process, she runs into a Duke on her way who proposes a fake engagement.

Great characters with a great twist at the end.

Miss Poppy runs away to London to escape from an odious betrothal. The Duke of Langham wants a fake betrolthal to Poppy tp protect him from the gold-diggers and to protect her family when her sister is accused of murder... Of course they fall in love... Along the way, the also find danger when they discover the real murderer...

Funny and sweet. It is a terrific romance. Love all the characters. So many LOL moments. The mystery is done well too. A terrific fun read.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

I was THRILLED to get this e-ARC and I was not disappointed. Collins brings another great romance with a fun mystery in the background. I really loved Poppy and Langham, they were great together and I found myself laughing at multiple points.

I was waiting with baited breath for my favs Val and Caro and Kate and Andrew to make their appearance and when it finally happened I was over the moon. The friendships, the quips, incredible. I hope there will be another in the series!
