The Earl Was Wrong by Britt Belle

4.0

I chose Sebastien and Emmeline's story because I really enjoy a marriage of convenience and The Earl Was Wrong was no exception. It was really enjoyable to watch them figure how how intimacy and marriage should work. I thought Sebastien's parent's love match negatively effecting him was an interesting twist. Flaunting societies rules for love is usually celebrated in historical romance, and while I don't think that's wrong, anything taken to an extreme can be harmful. I also really liked that Sebastien was a virgin, and he and Emmeline had to figure out how to make sex enjoyable. It is realistic and was a fun way for them to learn to communicate. Finally, I really liked the role family played in this story. It showed that family is complicated but can also be rewarding. I liked that certain characters like Sebastien's uncle, and sister weren't perfect but they cared about him and had value in his life even when they made mistakes. I recommend this one and I can't wait to read more from Britt Belle!
