Loved it!
This is the second Happily Ever After book. I am just loving this series. I thought it was going to be a typical regency romance with the Beauty and the Beast storyline, but James sensei adds so much more too it.
For example, I really don't care for unnecessary long sex scenes and IMHO the author has put in just enough with fun twists. In this series they were actually romantic as well as sensual and fits the story perfectly.
In this book the heroine Linnet(beauty) is almost faultless while the hero Piers is Dr.House of his time. He is a brilliant doctor but has no bedside manners, has horrible temper, is generally cranky and has a bad leg. I love the banter and battle of the wits that ensues between them.
Unlike the other regency novels there are no rivals, balls and the ton in this story. Instead there are sick patients, arguments and healing in the harsh but beautiful setting in Wales.
I just loved this happily ever after for adults! More please
19th Century Dr. House....I LOVED IT
I absolutely loved this book and I'm really enjoying this fairy tale series by Eloisa James. This is my new favorite romance book! This one made me cry, laugh, made me mad and happy. If you are fan of historical romance or of Eloisa James then I would suggest you get this book right now! You will love it too! A credit worthy listen. 5 stars all around!
Wonderful book...
I was facing a dreary weekend of housework and chores. Bought this book. Completed my housework and chores lost in the wonderful world Eloisa James created. Definitely worth the credit...lovely story, beautiful writing, definitely a must for those who enjoy this genre.
Loved it
The female protagonist Linnette was strong, smart and funny. I loved her. Even do the guy was a JERK, one can't help but like him. He is very smart, logical, selfless, very masculine, and extremely rude and arrogant. Yes he is all of that and more. He is not handsome in the traditional sense of the word but he is a MAN, and he makes love to his lady like there is no tomorrow. Great love scenes. Not a predictable book. It had many twist and turns.
Surprising Combination!
No topic is safe, divorce, drug addiction, child abuse, to forgive or not to forgive... James manages to touch on all of these topics without leaving the listener feeling depressed. Piers Yelverton, The Earl of Merchant, is a gifted physician in the area of diagnosis and treatment with the added gift of making his bedside insults scathing. Linnet Thynne is the beautiful young woman who finds herself in the unfortunate position of needing a husband to avoid scandal. In between insults they seem to find a happy medium by agreeing they would never suit each other.
