Review: In the Dark with the Duke

In the Dark with the Duke by Christi Caldwell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dark with the Duke by Christi Caldwell is book Two in the Lost Lords of London Series.  This is the story of Hugh Savage and Lila March.  I have read (and LOVED!) the previous book, but I did feel you can make this a standalone book if you wish to do so.  Hugh has had to fight his whole life from a very early age so it is not surprise that he is called the Savage Gentleman and is East London's undefeated street fighter along with being King of the underworld.  Hugh fights a internal battle too that he can't seem to get past.  Lila had something awful to happen which sent her into a downward spiral into a recluse.  But after years living from the world along with being scare of it she is slowly coming out of that thought process.  But Lila thinks learning to defend herself along with the people she loves will help her go forward leaving her sad recluse life.  So Lila knows she needs the best fighter to teacher her which leads her to Hugh.  Hugh of course doesn't want to teach her this but when he see something in her that makes him move forward to help.  They both of course have a pull towards the other but the more they work together the more they learn they have something more going on.  Love this author's writing and of course this book!  Highly recommend it!
