A Marquis to Protect the Governess Reviews

4.0
“I have rated this book a 4 star. I absolutely loved the romance between Andre and Isadora. Both from two different backgrounds and races having seen and lived different lives come together. I loved that the author wrote Isadora as a confident woman who spoke her mind when needed and Andre allowed her to yet keeping his. The story was well written and kept me wanting more especially as I love historical romance.  The ending of the story was lovely and a great ending.  I would recommend this book to readers who enjoy love, romance and historical romance with a little spicy moments. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.”
