Duchess from Susan May Warren! Kindle Fire HD Giveaway!


















About Duchess: Book Three in the Daughters of Fortune series.


When her country needs her, will she have the courage to surrender her glittering world and her one true love?
The golden age of Hollywood is in the business of creating stars. Rosie Worth, now starlet Roxy Price, has found everything she's wanted in the glamour of the silver screen. With adoring fans and a studio-mogul husband, she's finally silenced the voices-and grief-of the past. Her future shines bright...until the fated Black Friday when it all comes crashing down. When Roxy loses everything, she finds herself disgraced and penniless. Her only hope is to join forces with Belgian duke Rolfe Van Horne, a longtime film investor. But Rolfe is not who he seems, and he has other plans for Roxy and her movies-plans to support a growing unrest in Europe, plans that could break her heart and endanger her life.

 My Thoughts:

Duchess is the third and final book in the Daughter's of Fortune series. Susan May Warren does a great job of bringing Hollywood to life during the Golden Age. The time period reminded me a lot of The Great Gatsby.

In this final book of this series we see Rosie as an actress, married to a man she is in love with but he has married her for a business arrangement. He uses her to further his career with no concern for her.
This book is about choices and the consequences of those choices. When it comes to consequences for actions Susan May allows her characters to go through them, not making an excuse for them. That being said, you are able to see the characters redemption, which is a beautiful thing to see.

This book will take you to Hollywood, to Europe and back. There is a lot of history which was very interesting. Having read all three of these books I can't pick a favorite, I will say that they will all stay on my keeper shelf. This book can be read as a stand alone, I do recommend that you read all three in order to understand the story fully.
