Locked in a battle with rising passion and a will matching her own, Annabelle will learn just what it takes to topple a duke….Ī stunning debut for author Evie Dunmore and her Oxford Rebels, in which a fiercely independent vicar’s daughter takes on a duke in a fiery love story that threatens to upend the British social order. But he wouldn’t be the greatest strategist of the Kingdom if he couldn’t claim this alluring bluestocking without the promise of a ring…or could he?
He is looking for a wife of equal standing to secure the legacy he has worked so hard to rebuild, not an outspoken commoner who could never be his duchess.
Sebastian is appalled to find a suffragist squad has infiltrated his ducal home, but the real threat is his impossible feelings for green-eyed beauty Annabelle. Her challenge: not to give in to the powerful attraction she can’t deny for the man who opposes everything she stands for. Her target: Sebastian Devereux, the cold and calculating Duke of Montgomery who steers Britain’s politics at the Queen’s command. Her charge: recruit men of influence to champion their cause. In return for her scholarship, she must support the rising women’s suffrage movement. Bringing Down the Duke was recommended by a friend and I will never be able to repay her because League of Extraordinary Women may be my new favorite historical fiction series! Women’s suffrage and hot dukes and scandals, oh my! Without further ado…Įngland, 1879. Annabelle Archer, the brilliant but destitute daughter of a country vicar, has earned herself a place among the first cohort of female students at the renowned University of Oxford. Another week, another amazing romcom! Only this time, historical romance is the name of the game.
