Reader reviews of Someday Her Duke Will Come:

Author Ellie St. Clair has a certain flair for the unexpected. In this unique tale, Matilda Andrews (Tillie) loves to design dresses and has her own secret business. She is destined to marry a man she despises. But fate intervenes in the guise of Alexander (who happens to be a Duke). The escapades of these two beguiling characters provided me with a delightful read. Ms. St. Clair did an amazing job of weaving together a wonderful storyline that brought tears of laughter as well as sorrow but in the end created a fitting HEA to this charming couple. - K Mayo, Amazon Review

Ellie St Clair has written a wonderful book about a young woman, Matilda Andrews, and her search for her happily ever after. Alexander, Duke of Barre, has an elaborate plan to make Matilda his wife. Their journey towards love is full of twists and turns which are surprising and holds the reader's attention from start to finish. I cannot wait to read the next book. - Pamela Pond, Goodreads Review
