When I picked up this book, I thought it was just going to be a basic little romance that I’d enjoy in the moment and then quickly forget about. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved the two main characters in Surrendering to the Duke. Their banter was absolutely top tier.

I listened to this on a long road trip this weekend and was cracking up the whole time until I started crying at the end. It’s a blend of The Hate U Give and The Summer I Turned Pretty. If you enjoy YA reads, I cannot recommend it enough.

I’m not taking my Christmas decorations down until I’m the last one standing. I guess they’ve survived another day.
