When the Viscount Wanted Me by Lydia Lloyd
5.0
Lady Henrietta Breminster thought that experimenting with her friend the Earl of Hartley was just two friends with no commitment, but Hartley has decided that it means she's going to marry him. Lord Hugh Aldershot, the Viscount of Tremberley, overhears a drunken Hartley spreading what he thinks are rumors about his best friend's little sister and decides it's his duty to quiet them. Only Hartley isn't lying and now Trem is seeing Henrietta in a light he never thought possible. Thus begins an affair that quickly leads to an engagement and the need to get Hartley to accept that he's not marrying Henrietta.
I'm amazed smoke didn't come out of my e-reader with this one. It is an extra level of spicy I was not expecting from a historical. I'm not complaining, I just feel like it's something that deserves its own shout-out. To say that Trem and Henrietta have chemistry is a major understatement.
Also of note is that Lloyd wrote a very character-driven story that gives everyone ample motivation and growth. Every action even by side characters leads to something and helps move the story without ever feeling like it was just dropped there to move the story, if that makes sense. It was great to see the main couple interact with tons of different people and seeing how that affected their relationship and the steps they took moving forward.
It's a romantic, emotional, and, can't forget, spicy story that got me instantly caring about the characters and their situation. A very entertaining read that hit all the right spots.
Very happy thanks to NetGalley and Tule Publishing for the spicy romantic read!
