RakeDuke meets uptight gardener with a secret past and decides seduction is imminent.

Probably the best Madeline Hunter book I've read so far. 

2 POVs, 3rd person past tense, characters are similar age, some dated language choices (2010s, not 1810s), early 1800s, spicy.

Plot is fun and gives the romance space to breathe. Our rake has skills and is a planner, which was an interesting take and reflected what he's been doing throughout the rest of this series. Love a consistant character.

There are more than a couple side plots and they all paid off.

Narrator: Kate Reading is a breath of fresh air and made the prose sing.
