Rowan and Isabella’s story is a little strange for the time period and I completely enjoyed it. Well written with interesting characters and an outrageous plot. This story includes some fun bits and steam. Another fine addition to the series from this author.
This instalment covers the twins finding their futures while saving their brother from being blackmailed into marrying someone he does not love. Will Isabella be able to steal the evidence and accept gossip is not her whole life. Will Rowan realise what is in front of him & accept he is worthy of the place his adopted family have gifted him. I found this a really fun witty story. Isabella is quick of mind and saves the situation often, and the steam is also there between her and Rowan. Even the sneezing attacks was charming. Really enjoyed this story.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
I love this series, A Gentleman's Guide to Courtship, not only for its ironically-named sub-title, but also for its humor and heart. The Duke of Clearford, creator of the "guide" has pretty much given up on advising potential suitors how to court his sisters. The first three are married, and now it's Isabella's turn. Like the others, she's not particularly interested in marriage--and why would she be when she already has so much freedom?
Rowan Haws is not interested in marriage either, but a potential business deal requires marriage, so he convinces Isabella to play the part of his wife. This ends with predictable results. The way that Isabella can bend the rules of society to pull off this deception is what I find especially surprising.
Lane’s books are always filled with laughs, clever dialogue, and intense sex scenes. Her complex characters always experience transformations. Isabella and Rowan are no exception. Isabella learns she can relinquish the need to control everything because Rowan will be there to keep her safe. Rowan, who had vowed not to marry, takes a bit longer to transform. He needs to see himself as worthy of Isabella and accept the love and acceptance that has been offered to him by his adoptive parents. Then, he needs to face his fears of rejection from the upper classes. Yes, some will reject him, but he doesn’t need their acceptance. Isabella and the very large extended family forming around her will accept him with open arms as soon as he stops hiding. And as long as he has her, he can withstand the disapproval from those who don’t matter.
I love this author and her wild creativity. A story filled with steam, gossip, chemistry, secrets, wit, and more. It just sizzles!
Rowan has an instant attraction to Isabella. She's a lady pretending to be a maid. Rowan is a bachelor who wants to own an inn but who must marry first to have a chance at it.
What starts out as a pretend marriage turns into opportunities of a lifetime. The characters are amazing and outstanding. The story is so engaging that I couldn't put it down. Don't miss this one, you will really regret it.
Lady Isabella Merriweather hoards gossip like dragon’s gold, especially now that her brother Samuel the Duke of Clearford’s happiness is at stake. She’ll do anything to ensure he marries the right woman, even donning a maid’s uniform and challenging a mysterious hotelier who wants her to be his wife. Rowan Trent needs a pretend bride, not a real one as he’s busy buying a new inn, a deal in danger when the owner refuses to sell to a bachelor.
The fifth book in the series but it’s easily read on its own. Another absolute delight I loved both Rowan & Isabella & thoroughly enjoyed their journey to a HEA, witty banter, sizzling chemistry made for a book I found very hard to put down & I devoured it in two sittings
I voluntarily read and reviewed a special copy of this book; all thoughts and opinions are my own
