An Earl, the Girl, and a Toddler by Vanessa Riley
4.0
I have been looking forward to reading this book since I read A Duke, the Lady and a Baby and was really excited to get access to an ARC and let me say--- it did NOT disappoint.
Jemina St. Maur’s story is an interesting one and this book really does have you second-guessing things along the way. Jemina lost her memory in a shipwreck, along with her husband, and was sent to an insane asylum by her late husband’s family. She does not know anything that happened before the accident but she does know that Daniel Thackery, the barrister who saved her and continues to help her and The Widow’s Grace, is handsome and he makes her feel things. Daniel’s story is also twisted and as things are revealed about the two of them everything becomes more and more complicated and so much more interesting.
Overall, I loved the book and the characters, it was a refreshing twist on the classic regency romance. There were a few twists I did not see coming, but in hindsight make sense, the best kinds of twists. The characters were lovable and offered insight into what it must feel to be an outsider in society. It was an adorable read and satisfied my need to learn more about Jemina after reading A Duke, the Lady and a Baby.
Thank you to the publishers for giving me early access in exchange for an honest review.
