Last Night with the Duke: The Rakes of St. James
By: Amelia Grey
Rating: 4 of 5
This is the first in a new series of historical romance novels by Amelia Grey. There is a set-up of three young Dukes, known in their youth as The Rakes of St. James. The three men are older and wiser and in this story, the Duke of Griffin has hired a youngish woman to chaperone his twin sisters as they make their come-out.
Griffin has to deal with the potential of harm to his sisters based on his earlier wild ways. While there is a big lead-up to this potential, the book fails to deliver on it. I either wish there had been less talk of the possibility or a stronger result. As it is, it is a bit of a let-down.
