The Duke Who Didn't

by Courtney Milan

"Once a year, the village of Wedgeford fills with visitors — and Chloe Fong has a sauce to launch and a duke to ignore."

Wedgeford is a Victorian English village that happens to be largely Chinese — and during its famous annual games, relentlessly organised Chloe Fong will perfect her family's sauce empire, thank you, not flirt with maddening, secretly noble Jeremy. The cosiest, warmest historical romance you'll read this year.

Worth knowing

A love letter to the Chinese diaspora in Victorian Britain — history romance novels almost never show.
