A Wicked Earl’s Widow (Once Upon A Widow Book 2) by Aubrey Wynne – Review by Jana Teppih

The Wicked Earl’s Widow by Aubrey Wynne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Wicked Earl’s Widow is the second book in Aubrey Wynne’s Once Upon A Widow series. It can be read as a standalone even though it is part of a series, it is series of similar storylines and not of characters. I have read couple of other of her books, contemporary and historical, and I liked her way of writing … the beautiful way of sharing her characters with us … the emotions her stories awaken in us …
The Wicked Earl’s Widow is a fairly quick historical read that gives us loads of historical and cultural details of how it was to be a woman in that era … how it was to be a widow under the protection of your in-laws and still being threatened by your abusive father … how you are ‘owned’ by your father first and then by your husband and … how no one can help the wives and daughter who are physically and emotionally abused …
Aubrey is giving us a widow Eliza who is also a mother of a young daughter who so easily is being used to force her to submit to her abusive father’s demands, and Nathan, a young Viscount of Pendleton, a hard working young man with the heart that makes you to believe in fairy tales! It is a beautiful story of growing friendship, respect and love … it is a story of finding one’s strength and fighting for the future!
