A review by kateh3077
The Earl's Defiant Wallflower by Erica Ridley
5.0
I would like to start this review by thanking NetGalley for allowing me to read this fantastic book.
I have given this book 5 five star rating because the writing style was great and I will read the book again as well as recommend it to others or buy it as a gift. It was also a good book for the continuation of this companion series (The Dukes of War).
Plot/Story line:
This was a lovely easy to read romance book. The book follows the stories of Grace Halton, a young American girl who comes to the UK to find her husband so she can use her grandparents dowry to return home to her sick mother, and Oliver York who's returned from the War to find the estate finances in arrears and himself the Earl of Carlise as his father's died. She needs a rich husband while he needs a rich heiress but still they can't stop thinking about each other from the day they meet.
Character (s):
There was a lot to the two main characters Grace and Oliver but equally as much to the other characters. Both characters were strong, kind,gentle natured loving people whos love story was captivating.
Summary:
I enjoyed this book as much as I did the "The Viscount's Christmas Temptation" and as much as I'm sure I will the rest of the series. Erica's writing was fabulous as was her world building. The way she described the expectations in the regency period as well as the places and clothing was really evocative and made me as the reader feel like I was experiencing. Especially her descriptions of the clothes as it made me feel like I was actually touching the materials.
