Aiden Trewlove runs the Elysium Club, a club that caters for women and their whims, he's had some dalliances but he's never been as drawn to a woman as he has to Selina Sheffield, when she walks in his doors he can't ignore her. She's recently widowed and in order for her to support her familly, particularly her sisters, she has to be pregnant. She has a narrow window to achieve this aim and she hopes that someone in Elysium may help. But Aiden is too attractive, she's too drawn to him and how can she resolve all the issues. It's not an easy or straightforward path to love but I enjoyed being on it. ( )

3.5 maybe, but rounded up. I disagreed with some of the actions of the main characters, but I cared about them anyway, and felt pleased with their happily ever after. A couple slower spots, but overall I was engaged. ( )

This was a hard book to read - not because it was bad but because it hurt so much to see how these two lovers were facing separation when they had just found each other. Selena, the recently widowed Duchess of Lushing needs to produce an heir or the whole estate will be lost and she will not be able to care for her sisters. She goes to Aidan Trewlove, owner of the Elysium, a sanctuary for women to do what men have always had available to them a chance to enjoy themselves.
As a bastard, one thing Aiden knows how to do is prevent creating more bastards so when Selena presents him with her problem he isn't happy with the idea. If he would give her a son, it would be raised as a Duke but he would forever never know who his true father would be.
There were many tears throughout this book and while you understand why Selena is doing what she does it is hard to see two hearts broken by placing responsibility over love. The last few chapters provide the happy ending that these two lovers deserve and make the whole heart-wrenching read worth it in the end. ( )

I received an ARC of this book to read through Edelweiss+ in exchange for a fair review. The Duchess in His Bed is the 4th book in Lorraine Heath’s Sins for All Seasons Series. It can be read as a stand-alone but it’s an excellent series and I highly recommend all of the books in the series. I have to confess that at first, I struggled with this book, I didn’t trust the author to do right by the hero and that was a big mistake, Lorraine Heath had never let me down before and she does not do so in this book. Selena Sheffield, the recently widowed Duchess of Lushing has a problem. If she is not carrying the late duke’s heir the title will become extinct, with no heir the lands and monies will revert to the crown leaving Selena with only her dower house and a small annuity not enough to enough to ensure that her sisters will be able to make respectable marriages. Aiden Trewlove owner of the Elysium Club finds himself fascinated by the beautiful, mysterious masked woman who shows up at his club one night looking to be bedded, but as the bastard son of an earl he can never seek to move in her circles and the passion that grows between them cannot bring lasting happiness. How these two are able to find their way to HEA despite the odds stacked against it makes for a very enjoyable read and I do recommend this story highly. Medium Steam.
