The Duke's Dilemma by Elaine Manders

My review today is on the Regency Romance, The Duke's Dilemma. This is book two in The Wolf Deceivers. I have never read any of Elaine's work but I really enjoyed this book. All my followers know that I have a real quest against human trafficking. My last three books and a few short stories are about this subject. I never thought about it happening in the Regency era but that is what this book deals with. This book is well written, well researched, and intriguing. I know you are going to love this story.
Lady Cassandra Wayte is a widow. Her husband rescued her from an evil man years ago. He took her in and became her guardian but later married her. Her husband was a great man although old enough to be her grandfather. Cassandra loved him much like a father. He had done everything he could to stop human trafficking in England. Cassandra is determined to carry out his work. The Duke who lives next door comes to her home looking for his little sister. Cassandra assures him she has never met the girl. He leaves and up comes the young girl. She asks Cassandra to help her with her painting.  She also explains how she wants to use her to free her brother from the black widow that is trying to snare him. Cassandra agrees to help if the Duke will allow her to help his sister, after all she has a very bad reputation and is unworthy to be involved with him.
Duke of Langsdale, Edward Dalton knows of his sister's obsession with the next door neighbor. He calls on her and is surprised by the woman youth and beauty. When his sister asks to have Lady Cassandra tutor her in her water colors he agrees. He's seen her work and she is really talented. He soon is under her spell and realizes the Lady Daphne Ashford is not the woman he wants. She reveals her true colors when Cassandra is introduced to his household.
A great journey of two souls trying to help these young girls that are enslaved to prostitution by one very evil man. There are twists and turns through out the story but they must trust in God to find their way. God has a plan for these two, a plan for a hope and a future. God has a plan for you too. Give Him your hear and watch Him move in your life.
