She's intelligent and acknowledges the real faults in her appearance. My initial good opinion on Dax gradually decreased as the story goes on and I would have thought more of Eliza at the end if she'd not kept letting him get away with stuff with the ex. The villains were pasteboard caricatures, and I hated the confrontation scene on the beach. It's a quick read but not a book I'd recommend.

Jilted in a publicly humiliating display, Dax Kane, the Duke of Ashbourne, has sworn off love forever and has no wish to wed. But when the title demands it, he selects the most perfect candidate for the position: Lady Eliza Darby, a wallflower so unattractive he won't be in danger of falling in love with her.

A slow-burn historical romance that starts off the series, this novel has a great premise, a beautiful seaside setting (when not in London), and some dynamic characters. The MC takes most of the book for her gradual change from wallflower to strong duchess, and the likeable but gullible male lead takes that long to help make both of them feel secure. The supporting characters are interesting and well-written and the story flows quickly and consistently. I'll try the next book to see what happens with the bestie. A good read for a rainy day.
