The Making of a Duchess, Shana Galen – Review
A very dangerous attraction...
Julien Harcourt, duc de Valère, is more than willing to marry the lovely young lady his mother has chosen. Little does he know, she's been sent to prove him a spy and a traitor.
And an even more dangerous secret...
Sarah Smith's mission is to find out whether the duc's trips to the Continent are as innocent as he claims, but the way he looks at her is far from innocent...
Their risky game of cat and mouse propels them from the ballrooms of London to the prisons of Paris, and into a fragile love that may not survive their deceptions...
The first in a trilogy of three brothers struggling to reconnect and restore their noble heritage in the aftermath of the French Revolution, each losing his heart along the way.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR...Shana Galen is the author of five Regency historicals, including the Rita-nominated Blackthorne's Bride. Her books have been sold in Brazil, Russia, and the Netherlands and featured in the Rhapsody and Doubleday Book Clubs. She taught English at the middle and high school level off and on for eleven years. Most of those years were spent working in Houston's inner city.
Now she writes full time. She's happily married to an incredibly supportive man she likes to call Ultimate Sportsfan, and she have a beautiful daughter and two spoiled cats.

FROM THE BOOK FAERY REVIEWS...In the blink of an eye we watch the orphan girl turned governess turn into spy and into a real Duchess. LOVED it! Enjoyed the cat and mouse play between Julian and Sarah - because we all know that the predictable is always so boring. Passion is much more fun to watch when there's some play involved. I now look forward to reading Galen's 2nd book in the brother trilogy called The Making of a Gentlemen.
