The Matter of a Marquess by Jess Michaels
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Matter of a Marquess was such a great story to read. It's about two young lovers, Aurora and Nicholas who were torn apart by the evil lies and deceit of both of their ruthless fathers. She is forced into a loveless marriage and he goes off to war to forget about her. Years later they get a second chance at love after taking part in a meeting amongst mutual friends. Together they set the record straight of what happened between them both all those years ago, and as they become reacquainted the path that they find themselves upon leads them both to uncover a scandal while looking for Aurora's friend that has mysteriously gone missing.
I really enjoyed their story as it was a little dark and edgy especially with all the suspense that was unfolding, and as the secrets were being revealed from the past it was such an exciting and imaginative plot line. The romance was just perfect too.
Another wonderful story to add to this series of The Duke's Bastards.
