The Daughter of an Earl
The Daughter of an Earl by Victoria Morgan An American businessman in England, Brett Curtis has little use for the haughty ton beyond seeing his sisters happily entertained in London. But when his cousin mysteriously disappears after inheriting the title of Duke, he sets out to locate him and drag him home.
Lady Emily Chandler plunged into deep despair when her fiancé died in India, and now she is determined to prove that he was murdered. The brash American Brett Curtis’s reputation may be less than sterling, but he’s just the man to help Emily on her quest—if she can convince him to accept her dangerous proposition.
While their alliance uncovers a web of scandalous secrets, their undeniable attraction threatens to reveal something even more dangerous: true love.
My Review:
I love how pretty this cover is. I know people hate readers that judge a book by its cover but this is such a pretty cover (not that I'm judging the story by it but its a plus.)
Emily and Brett were a wonderful pair. Victoria has done a fantastic job of bringing two strong characters together in a sensitive time in both of their lives and despite the emotional conflicts Emily is suffering through the story Brett has been a great support system through the journey that he accompanies her on. I thought the author handled it all well, I liked that she gave life and history to everyone both main and secondary characters and I had a great time being a part of the world that she has created. Its endearing its honest and its a read that really warms the heart.
