About Duchess: Book Three in the Daughters of Fortune series.

When her country needs her, will she have the courage to surrender her glittering world and her one true love?
The golden age of Hollywood is in the business of creating stars. Rosie Worth, now starlet Roxy Price, has found everything she's wanted in the glamour of the silver screen. With adoring fans and a studio-mogul husband, she's finally silenced the voices-and grief-of the past. Her future shines bright...until the fated Black Friday when it all comes crashing down. When Roxy loses everything, she finds herself disgraced and penniless. Her only hope is to join forces with Belgian duke Rolfe Van Horne, a longtime film investor. But Rolfe is not who he seems, and he has other plans for Roxy and her movies-plans to support a growing unrest in Europe, plans that could break her heart and endanger her life. Find out more about the series by clicking on these links. Heiress. Baroness.

My Review -
 
I loved all three books in Susan May Warren's Daughters of Fortune series, but I think I would say that book three "Duchess" was my favorite!  Rosie who is known all over the world as Roxy Price is a wonderful actress, such a wonderful one that no one knows the turmoil she deals with herself everyday, the regrets about her past and the conflict over her choices and what she should decide now.  I have to say that Rosie was not one of my favorite characters from the previous two novels, but this book is really her story and focuses on her and I fell in love with her and admired her. I instantly loved Rolfe and Sophie.  Although, I did not want to at first, I did like Irene and greatly admired Irene and Roxy for being there for each other when they both needed a friend and help.  This book is filled with so many good lessons for us and it is also so enjoyable to read.  The time period was really brought alive as well and I loved reading about it from the perspectives of an actress and a duke.  The ending was so beautiful and well-written, an excellent conclusion to the series.
