La duchesse en chaussons de satin (Pocket Book)

The banter between characters felt lively but also heartfelt. I'm curious how the writing process managed to keep both elements in harmony.

The setup was fun, but I wondered if it risked undermining the characters' real feelings. What do others think about the authenticity of their connection?

The detailed historical backdrop made the romance feel immersive. I'm interested in whether the author drew from personal research or favorite eras.
