This is the last book in the series about the Luna sisters. This is Gabby’s story with the Duke of Whitefield.. I really liked this book and I enjoyed this series. A good read!

The final installment in the Luna Sisters series has everything I wanted: Gabby's temper and the vulnerable heart hidden underneath, a very down bad Duke, only-one-bed-on-this-ship, reclaiming your independence from abusive parents, "oh shit I guess we better get married because I couldn't keep my hands off you in public," richly detailed world history, and a beautiful epilogue to cap off the trilogy. Liana De la Rosa is an auto-buy author for me.

This might be my favorite book in the series. Gabby is fiery yet vulnerable, and Sebastian’s wit and readiness to help made their dynamic so enjoyable. I loved the rich setting of 1860s Mexico, as Gabby battles perceptions of her beauty and navigates the political landscape. The story’s twists were unexpected, and the ending? Absolutely heartwarming.

I'm so sad that majority of the historical romance series I'm reading are ending this year. Gabriela and His Grace brings Liana's Luna Sisters trilogy to a close and it's going to stay with readers for a long time. The chemistry doesn't disappoint and the characters played off one another very well.

Thank you so much Berkley Publishing Group for the digital ARC!

For the past couple of years, I have been loving Liana de La Rosa‘s Luna Sisters series. Following Ana María and The Fox in 2023 and Isabel and The Rogue in 2024, the trilogy now comes to an end with the fiery youngest sister in Gabriela and His Grace.

I have been impatiently waiting to see how things would transpire for Gabriela Luna and Sebastian Brooks, Duke of Whitfield; these two have had antagonistic chemistry since book one! Now, as Gabby escapes an unwanted marriage in England, she flees home to Mexico, though she’s unsure of the reception she’ll receive there. She’s surprised when Sebastian is on the same ship with the same destination. With so much forced proximity, these two are sure to finally come to terms with their true feelings for each other.

As much as I loved the first two books, Gabriela and His Grace may be my favorite of the bunch. Gabby and Sebastian are so fun! She’s so temperamental yet vulnerable; he’s so wry and ready to help. I loved getting to know 1860s Mexico, their politics of the time, and how Gabby navigates a world that doesn’t see her beyond her beauty. Things unfold in surprising ways, but I love where it finally put our characters. And that epilogue! My heart.

I’m so excited for Gabriela and His Grace to come out! My full review will be published on August 26, 2025, when the book will be available for all to read. Please check back for my post then!

This was such an amazing addition to the Luna Sisters series! I loved Gabby and Sebastian’s relationship and the slowwwww burn was killing me. I was just begging for them to freaking kiss!!! Once it started though 👀👀 10/10

I was eagerly waiting for Gabby’s book when we first met the Luna sisters in book 1 and her story did not disappoint! Gabby, the youngest and most outspoken Luna sister has always intrigued me since I felt we shared many similarities. My heart ached for her so much while reading. Sebastian, the Duke of Whitford, the bane of Gabby’s existence or so she thinks, became one of my favorite men of this series! I loved how both him and Gabby came together and how supportive he was of her. I just love them both so much! But like always, my favorite thing about the series is the sisters relationship! I love their growth and seeing them bond over the past 3 books.

I also enjoy learning about the history of Mexico during this time period and I think Liana does a great job of balancing history and romance. I’ve learned so much while reading this series!

I’m sad to say goodbye but this series ended beautifully! Loved the epilogue and hey maybe one day we can meet the Luna sisters again!

Thank you to Liana de la Rosa and her team for letting me part of the street team and allowing me to reading this eARC!

“Gabriela and His Grace” by Liana De la Rosa is a fun historical romance that blends steam, wit, and family dynamics. Gabriela Luna Valdés is a fierce, independent woman who is determined to carve her own path in Victorian London. The banter between Gabriela and the duke is delightful, and the romance is rich with emotional depth.
While part of a series— which I did not know going into this book— this book stands well on its own. I do plan to read the other books to understand more background and context. The pacing did slow down around the 60% mark but overall it was engaging with plot twists, well-developed characters, and funny moments. I recommend to any romance or historical fiction reader.
Thanks to NetGallery and Berkley Publishing Group for an advanced copy of this eBook in exchange for my honest review.

Gabriela is a compelling heroine-bold, intelligent, and fiercely passionate. Her dynamic with Sebastian crackles with sharp wit and simmering tension, reminiscent of An Offer from a Gentleman by Julia Quinn. Beneath their banter lies genuine admiration, with Sebastian valuing not only Gabriela's intellect but also her often-overlooked social acumen. Their romance is deeply felt, and despite its frustrating moments, the novel delivers a steamy, emotionally satisfying conclusion.

This installment in the Luna Sisters series delivers a satisfying conclusion, though it isn't without flaws. The pacing slows in places, particularly as the central conflict unfolds, making the resolution to Gabriela and Sebastian's romance feel drawn out. Additionally, while the novel incorporates significant historical and social themes, it only scratches the surface, missing opportunities to fully explore the rich backdrop of 1860s Mexico and European interventionism that I would have loved to see be explored more. I feel these elements add a richness and a depth to the story that historical fiction readers search for.

If you enjoy historical fiction and banter-laden romance this is a great pick for you. The characters are engaging enough that it can be read as a standalone without the reader being too lost. Look for this on August 26, 2025!

Thank you to Berkley Publishing Group and NetGalley for the eARC!

In the summer of 2022, I stumbled across the first colorful, gorgeous cover for the first Luna Sisters book. I promptly devoured the book in a day or two as soon as it was available on Netgalley and wound up writing one of its earliest reviews. Since then, my love for this series has only grown. So it's bittersweet to be writing one of the earliest reviews of the third and final entry.

Gabriela has always been a firecracker, a true belle with a brain and a heart even greater than her beauty. If ANA MARIA was for the responsible, self sacrificing ones, and ISABEL was for the overlooked, prickly ones, GABRIELA is for the underestimated, oft-dismissed ones who are so much more than they seem, and who love and fight so fiercely. After becoming a target of unscrupulous fortune hunters, Gabby goes home to Mexico - but her reception there from her parents is not what she hopes. Along for the ride is Sebastian, a duke who hides sad secrets beneath his pleasant demeanor. I was reminded of a line from Much Ado About Nothing: "They never. meet but there's a skirmish of wit between them." Gabby and Sebastian can't help needling each other (especially from her side, at first), but there's real respect there too (especially from his side, at first).

Sebastian's enormous respect for Gabby's intelligence and skills (including her social skills - those "ladylike", traditionally feminine, subtle skills too often overlooked then an now) are central to their romance. It's why the final hurdle to their HEA is so frustrating, although it makes sense in the context of his own fears and past. But never fear, the series reaches the joyful conclusion we all desire, with some memorable (and very steamy!) scenes along the way (could the office scene surpass Isabel's desk scene? maybe?).

And, of course, these are historical romances with a real sense of *history*. In times like these, it's more important than ever to read stories of resistance, justice, and honor. I've always loved how seamlessly the real history of 1860s politics and European interventionism is woven into this series. This trilogy truly is a reminder of what we're losing with publishing's pullback on vibrant, well-written historical romances - but I'll follow this author's writing into any setting!
