Trigger Warning: death of a loved one mentioned briefly
In just three weeks Rosalind Newbury is set to wed the Duke of Marlow- a man she's barely met but whose title will provide a prosperous future for her family. While she is eager to become a wife and fulfill her duty, she finds herself unexcited about the upcoming wedding. That's when she decides to complete a list of ten items that she wrote years ago. If she can accomplish these things before her wedding she will surely find happiness. Rosalind enlists the help of her friend Liza and Liza's cousin Charlie to complete each task. But as they make their way through the list, Rosalind begins to feel things for Charlie that she knows she shouldn't. Will she truly be ready to wed Marlow or will this adventure of hers lead her heart in another direction?
What a fabulous historical romance from Megan Walker! I loved Rosalind's bucket list and how each item led to a fun adventure and shenanigans. Rosalind was strong and feisty even if some of her thoughts about marriage and responsibility were a bit misled. It was so sad to think how many women during this time period probably entered marriage out of duty rather than love! I'm so glad Rosalind's story ended happily! Charlie was a great hero and did so much for Rosalind. I loved his boxing lessons, his scandalous alcove moment, and how he kept Rosalind safe. Charlie had made some mistakes in his life, and seeing how Rosalind believed in him warmed my heart. And the ending was so suspenseful and filled with angst! I was not expecting the events that came to pass, but I thoroughly enjoyed how everything played out. I should also give a special shout out to Rosalind's brother Ben- what an honorable, charming, and mischievous man! I would love to see him get his own book. After this I'm definitely eager to read more from Megan Walker in the future!

Hands down one of my favorite regency romances!
I was so deeply in love with this story! The ending was wonderful and I was so sad the book was over! I immediately purchased more books from Megan Walker to fill the void of a newly finished story.
