The Duke and the DJ
A dashing duke who needs to wed an heiress to save his ancestral home. A down and out DJ hoping to put a positive spin on her future. The tables turn when these two opposites attract.
Diego Zhi Wen de Bernadino, the Duke of Mondego, vowed to never follow the blue blood tradition of marrying for money. Unfortunately, left in crippling debt by his profligate father, and with his mother and staff threatened with destitution, marrying for love is not an option. When a tech billionairess hosts a party in Cordoba, he’s determined to win her affection. But his prestigious education and mastery of four languages hasn’t prepared him for a party girl’s unique vocabulary—his big seduction gets lost in translation.
DJ Spin d’Elle’s upbringing left her wary of the monied, noble class. Spin lives her life for the next party and gives away everything she doesn’t need. But when she meets the delicious duke, the record scratches and her tune changes. Though she agrees to help him woo her employer, she soon finds the music they make together is sweeter. With so much in common, will the duke and the DJ be able to remix their duet? Or will the pressures of money and duty cause the tune to fade out?
Find out if love will reign in this light-hearted, sweet romance of royal engagements. The Duke and the DJ is the third in a series of royal romances that are beyond the common tale!

I really like this series the stories have heart and a great story line. I’m looking forward to the next one in the series.

This books was “okay,” but for me it wasn’t as great as the first two. I felt like it was short, and a little rushed. I would have loved to see more of the relationship between Spin and Zhi unfurl before the end.
Also, as a classical musician, I cringed every time I had to read bass as “base.” Not the same thing. Not the same thing at all.
It was by no means a bad book, but it didn’t draw me in the way the first two in the series did.

Unexpectedly there were some great points of humor in this book. I really enjoyed this book as two characters who seemed so different grew towards each other on unexpected ways. There was an underlying thread of mystery I liked and a dark cloud that hung over the book. Much was sobering and serious, but it was all good.

A little bit of everything
This continues the "group" of friends that we met in the King and the Kindergarten teacher story! This,however doesn't have dashing fellows in it, but a simple guy that got put in a bad way by his relatives!
