Strong as a Viking. Handsome as Adonis. Rich as Midas. Collin "Cole" Talmage, Duke of Trewyth, is the stuff that legends are made of. He's the English Empire's golden son-until fate has its way with him. Cole's family is killed and his closest comrade betrays him on the battlefield, leaving him gravely injured. But Cole is not one to dwell on misfortune. He is a man of duty, honor, and desire. And now he's ready for the fight of his lifetime . . . Imogen Pritchard is a beautiful lass who works in a hospital by day and as a serving maid at night. Years ago, when she was young and penniless, she ended up spending a scandalous night with Cole, whose tormented soul was matched only by his earth-shattering passion. Imogen entered a marriage of convenience-one that left her a wealthy widow-but she never forgot Cole. Now that her long-lost lover has turned up in her hospital, injured and with no memory of her, Imogen is torn: Is it a blessing or a curse that their past remains a secret to Cole, even as his new passion for her leaves him wanting to protect and possess her at all costs? Contains mature themes.

The Duke by Kerrigan Byrne is my favourite so far in this series. I'm really glad that I've read this series in order, as although each book is about a separate couple, the couples and characters from the previous books feature heavily in the storyline. It was much easier to keep track of them all as I already had that familiarity.

I loved Cole ( Collin ) and Imogen. I couldn't wait to get to the part of the story where Cole finally remembers who Imogen is, and the author certainly made me wait. It was great though, I love a good slow burner romance. And whilst Cole fell quickly for "Ginny", it takes him much longer to appreciate what's next door with Imogen

Stop the world…I need to read.

Reviewed in Australia on 22 February 2017

After finishing The Duke I have come to a conclusion…this series is my crack. I really cannot get enough of the Victorian Rebels and I am enthralled from the first page to the last. The Duke was bloody amazing. I refuse to say this series gets better or this is my favourite so far. Each and every one of the Victorian Rebels, at the time of reading is my favourite. I’m addicted and I have no desire to ever be rehabilitated. If Kerrigan Byrne ever announces a final in this series…I WILL BE DEVASTATED!!

I’m not going to do my usual ramblings for this review because I went into The Duke blind and I think the experience was better for it. I can confirm that the beginning had me a little surprised, completely sucked in and even a wee bit flushed and breathless. Kerrigan Byrne has given us an original storyline where you question how there could ever be a happy ever after for the couple.

The author has a brilliant way of taking you to do the dark side and counting your blessings that the ruthless giant by your side is there to protect you and eventually cherish you. Yes, I am the heroine every time, so that means I have already - worked at Scotland Yard, been a beautiful and famous actress, survived a mental asylum and now I’ve nursed a hero back to health.

Each instalment gives me an opportunity to step back in time and experience the highs and lows of living in the late 1800's. I admire the women I become and learn to love the men who stand beside me.

Again, I have to state that The Duke was bloody brilliant. The heroine was strong, resilient and generous. Her life is dedicated to helping others and I admired her strength in facing challenges. The hero we meet at the start is very different to the hero we end up with. Both are arrogant, strong and intelligent but the hero, in the end, can only see the light with his heroine by his side.

The Victorian Rebels does not shy away from the dark side of our history. We see “gentleman” use their positions to take advantage. The author does not hide the ugly side of London where prostitution isn’t a choice, debts are paid by whatever means and reputations can be tarnished in the blink of an eye. Each instalment has violence, foul language and abuse but for me, it’s never OTT or unnecessary. It’s just part of the whole picture.

As per usual, I have finished The Duke desperate for more Kerrigan Byrne.

Reviewed in Australia on 8 February 2017

The Duke is a wonderfully written story which reminds me of Beauty and the Beast with a Victorian edge. A second chance love of sorts, we find the Duke and Imogen at odds and the tension is sizzling. He becomes her reluctant protector when a serial killer targets those around her, she tries to keep her distance because he doesn't remember her, and if he did, too many secrets of her past would be unearthed. Despite subterfuge to protect her heart and family, his need to find a woman from long ago with only vague memories, his injuries in service to the Crown, and her charity work for those of lesser and questionable means, they triumph in discovering the truth and almost lose it all. The passion between them cannot be denied, and they must overcome and trust each other with everything to find true love.

I received at netgalley from the publisher. The opinion is my own.

Another classic romance by Kerrigan Bryne that may suit readers looking for something less "dark"

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 March 2021

Verified Purchase

The Duke is the fourth book in the Victorian Rebels series, and while it may not be my favourite book in that particular series, it is still an extremely satisfying romance that holds its own amongst most other examples in the genre.
The Duke centres around Imogen and Collin, The Duke of Trewyth. Although both Cole and Imogen are put through the ringer a bit at the start of the book, it definitely doesn't have the same dark, tragic prologue that we've seen in the first three novels. In fact, up until around halfway through the book you could be forgiven for forgetting we're even in a Victorian Rebels novel.
Still, the romance between Imogen and Cole is still gripping and full of twists (Ms Byrne does enjoy a hidden identity!) and I loved the way the novel explores the societal differences in Victorian England and the different viewpoints people had back then.
Once we reach the halfway point, with the introduction of a serial killer as well as some familiar faces such as my persona favourite team of Avengers; Dorian, Argent, Liam and Morley , we are 100% back in peak Kerrigan Byrne territory.
I loved how the romance weaved around the murder mystery plot. As always, Byrne's characters are multi-dimensional and guide the audience through a range of emotions. Imogen is a wonderful advocate for women's rights and support throughout the novel, while also showing the fears and obstacles women faced in the 19th century. Cole ranges from the smooth, confident hero at the start of the book, to the sour, damaged character who returns after the war, clearly suffering from some form of PTSD from his experiences there.
I am a great lover of all Kerrigan Byrne's work and The Duke is certainly no exception to that. In fact, it's probably the one I'd recommend the most if you're a little wary of the darker subject material of the previous novels.

3 Mixed Feelings

I really liked the main character Imogen (aka Ginny), despite her obsession with the ass of a Duke - Cole, she is a strong woman who has done what needs to be done to survive and truly live, without obliterating her soul and compassion.

This is the first book by the author where I have finished the book overall not caring for the hero, man oh man, at times he is a BIG ASS and IDIOT – his words frequently unjustly scathing and harsh, when it comes to the heroine. I know he has endured a lot, but he never truly apologies or acknowledges his epic jerkiness in a manner that is contrite. His treatment of the heroine throughout the book was more than a little disappointing. And I found myself wincing more than once.

3 stars and not less simply because of the heroine!

Potential Triggers: Attempted rape and murder occur and torture and being a POW is referred to.

I liked the slant of this story, but not my favourite of the series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 February 2017

Verified Purchase

I liked the slant on this story - two people, who meet when they are both vulnerable and scared, share a night together which leaves an indelible mark on their respective souls. When they meet again, both with a lot more life experience, for better and worse, they hope and expect to find the same person they knew years ago and of course it doesn't happen. Imogen [Ginny] recognises Cole, the Duke in this story, immediately, but he doesn't recognise her, despite being attracted to her for reasons which he cannot understand - because he is searching for the exact same person he remembers from their previous encounter, without knowing that it is in fact 'Ginny'. Eventually, they understand that the fundamental feelings haven't altered, but the people that they have turned into, have, nor are they ever likely to return to the people they were before.

Where it went a bit awry for me was Imogen's fixation that if the Duke recognised her, he had it within his power to destroy her - but that presupposes that not one single person from her former existence would know of her path from brothel to nurse to countess. By the same token, she seemed to give him several opportunities to see through to her real persona, when she demonstrably wanted to hide from him. I spotted the villain early on in the story but there was no hint of why he was the way he was - it was unexplained and therefore made little sense at the end of the book.

I enjoyed meeting again the three couples from the previous books, and their interractions, but whereas I felt the menace and the very genuine reasons why the three men had turned out so violent and vicious, except with their wives and families, I didn't really feel it about Cole, the Duke. Except that this author tells a good story, this was almost a rather bland repeat of several stories of this type in this genre. I would, however, like to see Morley in his own story.

Good story

This is a very good writer. I find her stories gripping, real and totally relatable. Great use of words and quite humorous. Story is well crafted, though a bit too many words sometimes. All in all an enjoyable book.

Great story.
An early carnal encounter between the heroine Imogen Pritchard is followed by years of separation when r e she is the beacon of light that help o s him survive.After a marriage of convenience her circumstances change dramatically and they meet again but he does not recognise her. She loves him and how they find their way back to each other is set against a serial killer backdrop. Very enjoyable!
