Sabrina Jeffries’ How the Scoundrel Seduces, book 3 of the Duke’s
Men series, tells us the story of the Scoundrel of the Bonnaud/Manton
Family, Tristan. I’ve been eagerly awaiting his book ever since I
finished book 2. I loved most aspects of this story, unless I count in
some things that also left me a little exasperated.
As for those who don’t know, you should probably start with The Hellions of Hallstead Hall, IF you want to be introduced to the protagonists of this series, who were secondary characters. It’s not strictly necessary but fun nonetheless. ‘Duke’s Men’ is a fancy name for Manton’s Investigation, run by Dominic Manton. Dominic or Dom’s younger half-siblings (his deceased father, the viscount’s mistress’s children) also help him running this company. Though Dom’s elder brother, George, can’t stand the sight of either Tristan or Lisette, Dom is fond of both and appreciates having them close. Thus he has been banished and disinherited. But Dom doesn’t care a whit, he has studied and happy doing what he loves best.
The Duke of Lyons, Max, was one of the characters from the Hellions series. He’s also the H of book 1 of this series, What the Duke Desires. Thankfully, he’s now happily married to Lisette.
