Synopsis

What does a fiercely independent young widow really want? One determined suitor is about to find out. . .When Adeline, Dowager Countess of Wake, learns of her husband’s sudden death, she realizes she’s free. At last, she can do, go, and be as she pleases. Finally, she can have the life she has always dreamed of. She doesn’t need, or want, to remarry. Especially not the supremely dashing future Marquis of Marksworth, who makes Adeline yearn for his desire. . . Lord Lyonwood, son of a philandering marquis, will not be like his father. He wants to run his estates and watch them flourish―and find a wife who brings love to his life. When he meets spirited and self-reliant Adeline in a case of near-scandalous mistaken identity, Lyon feels he’s met his match. But Adeline isn’t interested in a marriage proposal. She will only accept becoming his lover―and Lyon finds it hard to refuse. Unless the fire of his passion can melt Adeline’s resolve. . .“A master storyteller.”―Affaire de Coeur

This was ok. I didn’t love this book even though I loved the premise. There was something missing in the execution. It felt rushed to me and there were sentences that didn’t make any sense. I didn’t feel the love between them.......more

The Earl Next Door is a smoldering historical romance in the new Love Comes First series by Amelia Grey. Lyon, Earl of Lyonwood, made a dreadful mistake when he mistakenly thought his new neighbor Adeline, Dowager Counter of Wake, was a lady of the evening. Definitely got things off on the wrong foo......more
