A Love Portrait for the Silent Duke
Following the sudden death of her beloved father, the spirited and kind Lady Selina Langley finds herself impoverished and homeless. In desperate need of an income for both her and her sister, Selina has no choice but to put her pride aside and seek employment. Luckily, she will be able to make her way in life by painting portraits for a tormented gentleman, who will draw her attention at their very first encounter. However, deep inside she knows that a match with a man of his stand and a fallen woman like her will always remain a foolish dream. With her unique talent and kindness, will Selina find the way to steal the charming nobleman's heart? In the end, will she put her struggling past behind and find true love and happiness despite the odds?
When Lord Graham Hancock, the brave and gallant Duke of Westcott, returns injured from the war, he withdraws to his own world, struggling to adjust back into society. To make matters worse, his fiancée breaks off their engagement, as she is embarrassed by his presence. She refuses to be associated with someone who lost the ability to speak, and prefers to stay aside from the crippling nightmares he now endures. Soon, everything will change for the lonely Duke, when he meets the mesmerising woman, who is hired for his portrait and is about to replace what haunts his dreams. As he spends more time with her, she gives him the hope that life is far from over for him and he realises that she is the only person who can brighten even his gloomiest days. Will the silent Duke find a way to declare his genuine love to Selina? Or will he suppress his feelings out of fear and condemn himself into an eternal misery?
Selina and Graham's hearts start to heal when they discover that they have found everything they were looking for in each others' eyes. Everything crashes down though, when Graham's mother banishes Selina from the house and convinces his ex-fianceé to return and ask for his forgiveness. Will Graham find the heartbroken Selina and make the right decision at the most critical moment of his life by convincing her that she is the true love of his life? While external forces are threatening to steal their chance at happiness forever, will the two of them fight for their feelings and choose the path of their own life?

A little cheesy and dull. The hero's mother treated him like a child and he acted like one too.
April 27, 2024
This was a 4.5 rounded to a 5. The h was a survivor and an accomplished artist. As usual, she and her sister could not inherit and their father had made no provisions for them. A cruel, narcissistic cousin put them out with nothing and it was frowned upon for a 'Lady' to earn a living rather than starving. The H's mother commissioned the h to paint a portrait of the H and she did so much more. He acted like a child and was treated as such by friends and his mother, the h treated him like an adult. Slowly he regained his memory, his voice and his strength of character.
Great writing, held my interest from page 1 until the HEA.

How can a romance be considered a romance if there isn’t even one kiss, few touches, and sparse chemistry between the two main characters? I kept waiting and hoping, even sold my soul for the extended epilogue (not worth it, to be honest) and not a single kiss between them. Ever.
What attracted me to the book was that I love stories where the hero or heroine has some sort of disability or impairment that makes them less than perfect. In this case, Graham is a traumatized war veteran who has lost his ability to speak.
It was a no-brainer, but the story is laden with disappointments, more than what I’ve already mentioned. There were few character descriptions I want to see these people), the subplot of finding Graham’s friend took precedence, and what I found to be particularly sickening was that he was a profound mama’s boy. She had her grimy fingers into every aspect of his life and he did nothing to stop her, even when he discovered that she and her own love interest were planning on taking away his dukedom. That was bad enough, but when he didn’t stand up for Selina when his mother wronged her time and again, it sealed my opinion of him: he was a wimpy loser.
I liked Selina. She was hired by Graham’s mommy to paint his portrait. She was displaced after her father died and her cousin took over the family home and removed her and her sister to a dilapidated cottage on the outskirts of the property. They had no means to support themselves, but Selina was quite an artist and decided to make a career of it. She was resilient, resourceful, tough, and genuinely cared about Graham. Too bad he cared more about his mommy than he did about Selina. (Rolling my eye)
I wanted to like this book, but Graham being a mama’s boy was too over the top and ruined everything. The other issues I mentioned were also factors in this review.
Such a bummer.

There are Different Ways to Communicate
An enjoyable easy read. I particularly liked the way signing developed between the main characters as a way for them to communicate. Lady Selina is an artist and has been asked to paint several pictures for her friends. When her father died unexpectedly, her cousin took over the estate and threw Selina and her sister out of the house into a cottage on his estate. Duke Graham has lost his voice since being injured in a war. He is desperate to find his missing soldier friend, Thomas, and is traumatised to think he has not been found. He has retreated from society but his mother is determined to marry to him to a lady of her choosing, Lady Emmeline Broughton. When Emmeline realises that Graham cannot talk, she rejects him. When Selina is asked to paint the Duke's portrait, she goes to stay at his house so his mother can supervise them. Selina is able to communicate with Graham by signs that they develop between the two of them. His mother is not willing to sign and is still keen for Graham to court Emmeline. Selina and Graham develop their own way of communicating and Selina helps Graham to rediscover his skills as an artist. Circumstances lead to problems for Selina but she helps him to discover news about Thomas. With the work of several military friends, Graham has news about Thomas. Will it be enough to recover his voice? Will Selina and Graham be able to overcome the will of his mother and find happiness? Read on and enjoy.

This story has a diverse mix of characters, from a gentle Duke with PTSS to a lady whose fortunes have fallen to a snooty Dowager Duchess determined to protect her son but in ways more suited to her own needs. Add to this a shallow debutante and a Duke whose very presence could be viewed with suspicion, ordinary soldiers home from the war with Napoleon's France and a cousin who inherits everything from his uncle, just because Lord Donald's children are girls. The 'rules' of the time are cruel, but what is worse is society's view of these two ladies - 'fallen' simply because their father failed to provide for them in his will. They are not wanton or in any way less than ladies, but are treated as if they are beneath society's view. This story tells of the struggle to survive, but also the love and generosity of their true friends. Graham and Selina fall in love despite their circumstances and the mystery lurking in the background. Selina's natural compassion is the catalyst for Graham's recovery but it is through their shared art that they bond. The different reactions of the characters to Graham's enquiry of his friend, Thomas, underlines the prejudice and class distinctions in the time period and the frustrations of those who are good people in dealing with those who choose to ignore suffering for their own selfish reasons. It is this depth of true society that gives this a deserved 4 stars.

Lady Selena Langley, and her sister have just loss their father and find themselves without a home and have to rely on the charity of their cousin. Lady Selena has always drawn beautiful portraits and landscapes and decides this is how they will survive without having to except charity from their cousin.
She is hired by the mother of the Duke of Westcott, Graham Hancock who has returned from the war unable to speak. Lady Selena knows how to treat Graham and they develop a method of communication that he was unable to achieve with anyone else including his mother. Although, his mother was initially supportive of their friendship she changes her mind and forces Lady Selena to leave. Graham is besides himself and wants Lady Selena to return. Will Graham stand up to his mother for the future he desires?
I especially liked the way Lady Selena connected with Graham, she took the time to reply try to reach him and help him push to regain his voice and the future he desires. There is much more to this story but I don’t want to give away all the additional factors that made this story so enjoyable.
I received an ARC copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it and highly recommend it.

Why was she sent away? Where did she go? Will she see him again? Will his friend be found alive? Will the nightmares ever go away? Will he find her? Will he ever talk again? Will his mother accept his choice of a bride? Will the portrait ever be finished? Will they have their happy ever after? I would recommend this book to everyone. Buy the book and find out what happens to everyone. Enjoy

A portrait artist 👩🎨 is hired.
Coming home from war with large chunks of time missing from his memory and his voice is gone. He is on a quest to find his friend and comrade in arms, Thomas. His mother is hiring many performers to entertain her wounded son, but not much interests him until they hire a portrait artist. She is young, just lost her father and her younger sister is working as a companion, they even lost their home. When she is hired something clicks between the wounded Duke and his artist 👩🎨 as she is very good at communicating with him and reading his physical language.
So many issues to resolve. There is a HEA and an extended epilogue to enjoy. Five stars for a good story.

A truly delightful and very inspiring new book by this author. I loved the characters, especially Graham and Salina, as they get to know each other and the obstacles that they find a way to overcome. His mother is so caring in her love and consideration of Graham, until she decides that Salina is not worthy of her son, the current Duke of Westcott. The storyline was complex, but yet simplistic in other ways. This would probably rate as my favorite book by Bridget Barton.
I received an ARC copy of this book, but this is my voluntary, honest and completely personal review.

A Really Good Read
Bridgit Barton's newest offering is "A Love Portrait for the Silent Duke." The novel is full of heroic characters. The main female is Lady Selina. She and her younger sister are left penniless after their father dies suddenly. She does not despair but instantly recognizes that she will need to earn their livings. She is hired to paint a potrait of Graham. He is an admirable young man who has lost his voice due to war. His mother is a veritable lioness protecting her wounded cub from fortune huntresses.
Of all the book heroes I have read about in the last few years, Graham is the one I would love to meet in person. He is a wounded soldier, a loving but independent son, and a generous soul. Too bad he isn't real.
I give this book 4 stars.

Sooooo good!
This was such a touching story about Graham Hancock the Duke of Westcott and Selina Langley. Selina and her sister lost their home and became penniless with the death of their father. Selina turns to painting to support themselves. Graham has returned from war injured and the one person that should be helping him turns her back on him. Selina and Graham meet when she comes to do his portrait. This piece has a unique storyline that I found to be splendid and the characters were outstanding. High praise for this gem I was very impressed.

Great Read
I loved the plot but all the lordship, duke and British snobbery leaves me cold. The characters of the great story had drama and excitement that took one from London to the countryside. Lady Edith was a typical controlling snob who saw her son, Graham falling for a young lady artist, Selina who lost her stature in society after the death of her father. Graham lost his ability to speak during a battle in the war but Selina could converse with him when she went to paint his portrait. Twists and turns of this story with some intrigue will keep you spellbound.

Fighting for love and independence
Love the story of lady Selina and Lord Graham, well written and entertaining, it was a pleasure to read from beginning to the end. Great scenery beautiful places. That time in England women were so vulnerable it didn’t matter their social status and they were always fighting for their rights to be heard, and for independence. Some were brave enough and fight so valiants against society’s rules that made them dependent of men.

A delightful clean and sweet story
This is a delightfully thought out story, with a unique plot that has the main characters having to navigate an emotional journey and overcome a mother's prejudices to achieve their desires. The extended epilogue gives us an amazing glimpse into their futures, and a unique revelation. I read an ARC copy.

Nice clean romance
This is about Selina and her sister who are left penniless when her cousin inherits their father’s estate. Then the story proceeds to tell of how Selina starts painting so that she and her sister can be provided for. Of course there is a lot more complications to be overcome before we see a happy end.

This is a wonderful book.
I did enjoy reading this book. The story kept moving and you had to keep reading to see what would happen next. Lord Graham and Lady Selina were so perfect for each other. A great way to express a romance. I could not stop until it was over but I am going to have to read it again to make sure I didn't miss any details that make it even better.

Great story
The story line was terrific, Great suspense and characters, It was a shame only one person took the effort to communicate differently but sometimes true in real life, as some want to nurture more than listen.

I’m really not good at reviews. But this book was an easy, fast read . The storylines were so interesting. I just know I liked it very much and I wanted the author and others to know as well.

Unique
I've never read a romance story that addresses the horrors of Napoleon's war. I was not surprised that English society treated their wounded so poorly. This was a love story that more than made up for it.

A Love Portrait for the Silent Duke
The story is a good story. It is another one about their prejudice in the commoner and the elite. I get annoyed with this. Even today with the princes and princesses.
