Evie Dunmore's charismatic heroines return! Publishers Weekly Novel of the Year. Evie Dunmore created her debut novel, My Favorite Duke, inspired by the magical landscapes of Oxford and a passion for romance, an interest in the fates of progressive women and the Victorian era. In everyday life, she is a consultant in the field of diplomacy and has a master's degree from Oxford. Evie Dunmore is a member of the British Romantic Writers' Association (RNA). The writer lives in Berlin and reflects her passion for 19th-century England in her works. There are things that a woman tends to do only because she is a woman. For example, fainting for any insignificant reason. And there are things that a woman is not supposed to do just because she is a woman. Probably, a woman cannot just go out and buy fifty percent of the shares of a publishing house. Or maybe? Lucy Tedbury - leader of the suffragette movement. She gave up on her personal life long ago, and chose the cat Boudicca as her best friend. To shed light on the disenfranchised position of women, Lucy and her associates decide to take control of the work of the largest London publishing house. But the ideal plan collapses when the famous rogue and womanizer, the handsome Lord Ballentine, stands in their way. He is ready to step aside if Lucy spends the night (isn't it a shame?) in his bed. Lucy accepts the lord's proposal, and in the flaring flames of passion, Tristan very soon realizes that he risks falling into his own love trap. “A modern love affair in a Victorian dress without a corset.” – Amy E. Reichert “Evie Dunmore is a literary force to be reckoned with.” – Rachel Van Dyken
