![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() He spends most of the book trying to think up ways he can make things right (and that’s part of the reason he courts Chloe-in addition to his longstanding crush on her, he knows she has the brain to come up with ideas for ways he can use his power to improve things). Jeremy is a duke in Regency England and is deeply aware of the power, privilege, and ethical problems that comes with that. The townsfolk are an equal delight, and I think they’ll only get more delightful on rereads. I love their interactions with each other and the town around them. He calls out other people whose teasing cross lines and when they try to point out that he’s done it just as bad, he acknowledges the way it hurt Chloe and makes it clear that’s not something he ever wants to do again. Best of all, he recognizes when his teasing crosses a line and apologizes and tries to do better. ![]() Jeremy is pure snark and playful teasing. The Duke Who Didn’t by Courtney Milan, is an utter delight.Ĭhloe is a gem and I love her and her lists and her thirst for revenge by success in business. I think I’d laugh even more on a reread, knowing some of the reveals at the end. I laughed pretty much the whole way through. I’ll be honest, I wasn’t expecting to enjoy a straight romance as much as I did in this book. ![]()
