Review: Duke for the Summer by Emily Spady

May 22, 2024 by Kate H.

Duke for the Summer by Emily SpadyLGBTQ RomanceMay 19, 2024-Self-published Review by Kate H. This book took me by surprise, in the best way. Based on the description, I had thought it was going to be a ring-around-the-tropes m/m romcom with characters that were somewhat complex but had problems that were easily resolvable. But I am a sucker for novels where an MC pulls a geographic, so I plowed ahead. Imagine my surprise to find two flawed, human characters - not archetypes, not Continue Reading
