Could not read the book. Format wasn’t good. Will wait for full book to make a judgement. Review submitted by mistake.

Jon and his mentor, Dr. Morris are on a European Grand Tour when they are trapped and jailed, POW’s, as the Napoleonic Wars unexpectedly recommence. A decade later, on the very day they are to be freed Jon’s mentor dies. But not before giving his last request to Jon: see that Morris’s daughter Victoria is married and well taken care of.

Jon makes his way home and is reunited with his mother and sister. Reeling with how his pig-tailed little sister has grown into a woman and the fact that both his older brothers have died leaving him to be the Duke, Jon is introduced to his sister’s governess.

None other than his mentor’s daughter, Victoria. Instant attraction! But she must remain off limits because she is in his employ and because he was tasked with responsibility for her by his mentor. He cannot take advantage of her. How can this resolve?

I’ll be very excited when Hazardous to a Duke’s Heart is finally published. The first few chapters build a wonderful intriguing foundation with the promise of romance and passion.

This was great, so far. Historical romance, with a true focus on history. The author has certainly done some homework, which promises a fine series to come.

Sadly, I realized after I requested (and downloaded) that it was NOT the complete book. I would have held off until the full ARC was offered for review. I am too impatient with teasers like this. I “need” to read further but hate to wait.

I saw the author’s name and auto clicked. Sabrina Jeffries has always been a “go to” author for me in the historical romance genre.
The first two chapters introduce the characters involved, what the main male lead went through. A shame I will have a lengthy wait until I can finish.

Not realizing this was only the first two chapters of an upcoming release, I was disappointed upon downloading it. Cant wait for the book release as I am left wondering... Free ARC from NetGalley.

Just a hint not a full book. We see backstory and meet the three men featured in the trilogy. For me I want full book so will look when it comes out.

This is a promising teaser- I like the characters we've seen so far, and I'm interested in the dynamics at play with the families, the love interest and the duke. I would need to read more to get a sense of what the conflicts will be, though obviously there is survivor's guilt at play, as well as the duke's feelings about being thrown away by his parents. I will definitely be requesting the full ARC!
