Description from the publisher:
Solving a murder is dangerous business. So is falling in love…

Lady Chastity will not stand idly by while her sister is suspected of murder. Since no one wants to help, she’ll take matters into her own hands. The plan? Simple. She’ll disguise herself as a servant and investigate. But when her ruse leads her to the enigmatic Lord Kendall, Chastity soon realizes nothing in her life will ever be simple again…

As much as Valentine would like to ignore the scheming beauty who claims to be a servant, he simply can’t. He needs her. Bringing his footman’s killer to justice would be impossible without her, because the vivacious Chastity can do what he can’t—talk to people and gain their trust. So, he’ll accept the chaos she brings into his life. Accepting her into his heart, however, is another matter entirely…

Fortunately for Chastity and Valentine, intrigue has a way of putting lovers on the path to happily ever after. But first, they’ve got a killer to catch…

TEMPTATION OF A DUKE'S DAUGHTER is the second book in Duchess’s Investigative Society series.  Though each book will stand on its own, I say you don’t want to miss this series.
 
I don’t know which held me more captive – the suspenseful mystery or the heart-thudding romance.  The sexual tension sparked off the page, and the verbal banter assures a lasting relationship that will be fun, flirty, and steamy for decades.
 
Lady Chastity isn’t afraid to do some unusual work to investigate this particular case and Lord Kendall has a personal stake in what would normally be beneath his notice.  Together they are wonderful characters. 
 
This was a delight to read – absolute entertainment as romance and intrigue came together.
 
Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
