Publisher's summary

By beloved USA Today bestselling author Joanna Shupe, the fourth installment in the Fifth Avenue Rebels series about a secret affair between a free-spirited heiress and an uptight duke which turns more passionate than either could have imagined.

A rebellious heiress.

A duke in dire straits.

An anonymous midnight tryst.

To escape the shackles of marriage, Nellie Young purposely ruined her reputation a long time ago. Now she dedicates herself to hedonistic pleasures only, like kissing a handsome stranger in the ocean under the moonlight...

To save his estate, the proper Duke of Lockwood must marry the perfect bride—wealthy, with an unblemished reputation. While in New York he’s the perfect gentleman, and no one knows he’s suppressing his darkest desires. The last thing he needs is another scandal.

Except Nellie sees through Lockwood’s charade, straight to the real man underneath. This uptight duke is far more than he lets on, and she can’t resist him. Their secret affair turns scorching, far more than either expected. And when his beautiful rebel finds an unconventional cause, Lockwood has to decide if he’s willing to sacrifice everything to keep her.

My thoughts on The Duke GeTs Even

I didn't enjoy Kit Swann. I did like Timothy Campbell. I think it would have been better with one narrator





k

Loved this book

Great story , easy to love characters no terrible misconceptions well worth the credit !
Great narrations

One of the Best

A departure from the norm polite society reads. Fascinated with the characters from the onset. Not your ordinary love story. Loved it.

Hot scenes, and good conclusion to the story

I enjoyed this book. I liked both main characters. They were both strong, independent and well matched. Their romantic encounters were hot and I enjoyed his resolution to be with her.
The ending was a little rushed for me.

The male narrator was fantastic. He was really perfect for the part. The female narrator was not very pleasant to listen to, but after half of the book I got used to it.

Wonderful ending to series

Love Joanna Shupe! Her ending to the series lived up to my expectations. Sexy with lots of feels, like Lockwood says, "I'm keeping you" on my favorite shelf!

Five Stars

I loved Nellie and Lockwood, they are a wonderful couple. I was excited to hear one of Shupe’s books was having dual narrators for the first time. Once I started the audiobook, I was not a big fan of the male narrator but I hope they continue dual narrators for future Shupe books. Kit Swann did a fabulous job as always.

Great ending to this series!

Love Joanna Shupe’s books! This is a wonderful finish to the series! Looking forward to seeing what else she releases!

Excellent

Great end to the series. Very sweet book. I really enjoyed the 2 narrators. The male voice added depth to the character with tone and inflection and some just very male sounds. Cried when her and her aunt were taking towards the end.

I couldn’t love it more

This story is perfection. It is poignant and real. I love the gilded age timeframe and the historical references. The love story is unique with a complex couple. Thank you Joanna Shupe for writing a beautiful book. The narration was excellent.

Nelly and Andrew = Perfection

Wonderful story and excellent narration as these two soulmates slowly fall in love and fight for and with each other. Kit and Timothy brought these two to life!
