Review: Winning Her Duke by Allison B. Hanson

Author: Allison B. Hanson
Publisher: Blackstone Publishing (audiobook)
Publication Date: February 2024

When Gia Landon is tricked into a London season by her father, she is pleased to have found a friend who shares her love of horses in the Duke of Roxburghe. The surly Scot enjoys living in London and hates the country, while Gia despises everything about society.

Hale knows Gia has no intention of marrying. She is simply biding her time until her father gives up and allows her to return to the country. Which means there is no danger in spending his days in her company discussing their one true love…race horses.

But soon, their shared love of all things equine begins to grow, and a friendship they thought was safe tempts them into crossing the line into scandal.

In Winning Her Duke,  Gia never wanted a season. She just wants to take care of her horses and live in the country.  She hates London society.  Hale has no desire to marry either. Although he does enjoy the city and a good ball.  Their unexpected friendship and love of horses poses a perfect solution to keep the suitors at bay.   I thought this was  a really adorable romance.  I enjoyed watching Gia and Hale fall for each other. They were really cute as they fought their attraction. Their friendship first made it all the more sweet when they got to their HEA.  My only real complaint was the "miscommunication" toward the end.  It was unnecessary and frustrating.  This is the first in a series, so I will be continuing with the next book soon.
