From Duke Till Dawn

It was fine, I guess? Very much the first in a series - a lot of setup for the protagonists in the rest of the series and all that. Both main characters here felt a little underwritten, especially the male lead. Why is he friends with these two other nobles who are so much younger than he is, besides the fact that this is the first in a series? I didn't think a lot about his character was that well-established, but I did like how his perspective changed after understanding Cassandra's background and everything she'd been through. Cassandra was a little bit more developed, and a heroine I hadn't read before, which was nice.

(2020 summer romance bingo: title is a pun, would also work for secret identity, maybe villain's love story and/or protagonist smells uniquely like themselves.)
