title: My Fair Duchess: A Dukes Behaving Badly Novel
author:  Megan Frampton 
description: Ms. Frampton brings humorous charm and seasoned class to a scenario done many times. My Fair Duchess is a twist on an old gem that develops a life of its own...what ensues is ultimate chaos with irresistible heart. Another classic in the making. (Night Owl Reviews)<br /><br />Frampton bases her novel on an actual law that allowed a woman to inherit a dukedom. And the My Fair Lady premise allows this talented writer to craft a delightful, sometimes humorous, sometimes highly poignant and always powerful romance. (RT Book Reviews)<br /><br />My Fair Duchess, Framptons marvelously clever riff on Pygmalion and the latest in her Dukes Behaving Badly series, following Why do Dukes Fall in Love (2016), is another captivating symphony of scintillating wit and sophisticated sensuality brilliantly conducted by an author writing at the top of her game.
