The Day of the Duchess - Sarah MacLean

After disappearing from society years earlier, Seraphina, Duchess of Haven, abruptly marches into Parliament and demands a divorce from her husband, Malcolm. But Malcolm still loves her and is convinced that if she could move beyond their past failings, she might realize she feels the same. While Sera tries her best to push him into someone else’s arms, he schemes to win her heart (again). Sarah MacLean is a master of combining pop references and history, and this novel is best described as the Kardashians meets the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge meets The Bachelor meets The Philadelphia Story, set in Victorian England. In other words, the perfect vacation romance read.
