A Lady for a Duke
Alexis Hall
(Author)Description
Only when their families reconnect, years after the war, does Viola learn how deep that loss truly was. Shattered without her, Gracewood has retreated so far into grief that Viola barely recognises her old friend in the lonely, brooding man he has become.
As Viola strives to bring Gracewood back to himself, fresh desires give new names to old feelings. Feelings that would have been impossible once and may be impossible still, but which Viola cannot deny. Even if they cost her everything, all over again.

Reviews
"A name to follow in romance. . . . With A Lady for a Duke, Hall cements himself even further as a writer who pushes the genre beyond its previous borders and helps to reestablish a new definition altogether."--Paste Magazine
"Alexis Hall was made for writing these period narratives. . . . Featuring Hall's trademark wit, a second chance romance infused with grief, yearning and acceptance, A Lady for a Duke is a vivid, moving tale."--The Nerd Daily
"Hall has hit it out of the park with this emotionally resonant, character-driven Regency romance . . . [a] nuanced, swoony and a stellar example of what romance can do."--BookPage, Starred Review
"Hall is a dizzyingly talented writer, one likely to spur envy in anyone who's ever picked up a pen."--Entertainment Weekly
"His beautiful and moving first historical romance, which has just enough humor to lighten the angst, may be the sweetest book of this summer."--NPR
"If you're looking to swoon, laugh, and cry, then this is the audiobook for you."--Buzzfeed
"Hall is a consistently beautiful writer, but this story, the first in a new series, may be his best yet."
--Kirkus, Starred Review
"Simply the best writer I've come across in years."--Laura Kinsale, New York Times bestselling author of Flowers from the Storm
"The period banter is unparalleled as Hall pulls his characters out of the drawing room and into far closer quarters. He explores difficult subjects with a sharpness matched only by the tenderness underpinning the relationship between Viola and Gracewood. Fans of Lisa Kleypas and anyone looking for romance centering trans characters owe it to themselves to check this out."--Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
