BOOK SYNOPSIS:
As childhood friends, Leopold d’Ermart and Suzanne Matchet were inseparable. One unforgettable Christmas Eve, their relationship changed from the best of friends…to lovers. But the heir of the Duke of Mont-Marly isn’t supposed to fall in love with the daughter of his family’s physician. Or vice versa.
Is this a second chance at first love?
Years later, Suzanne is dreading her first Christmas without her father. The heartbreak Leo caused when he left seven years ago is a distant memory. And she prefers to keep it that way. The last thing Suzanne expects is for tall, dark, and sinfully seductive Leo d’Ermart to show up at her door and announce he wants her back in his life. And in his bed. Worse, the now celebrated libertine is even more devastating to a woman’s senses than ever before…
Or are they playing with fire?
The only woman Leo, Duke of Mont-Marly, has ever yearned for is the adorably unconventional, intelligent beauty who got away. He discovers Suzanne creating and selling matchsticks, elixirs for the ill…and is still so damned alluring. Leo is determined to show her the depth of his desire, win back Suzanne’s heart. And give her a Christmas beyond her wildest imagination…
REVIEW:
4.5 HEARTS I don’t think anyone can twist a fairy tale and tell such an amazing story quite like Lila. I loved this story. I loved the tension between Leo & Suzanne. Although I wanted to kick Leo’s butt for hurting Suzanne like that. Leo & Suzanne’s history is very heart breaking and while it would have ruined the story I wish that he would have fought for her. But being a novella I am not going to tell you any more.
Just know that if you have loved any of Lila’s books you will love this story. If you are new to Lila and her Fiery Tales you can easily read The Duke’s Match Girl as a stand alone.
