The Earl’s Match (The Thompsons of Locust Street Series) by Holly Bush – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Earl’s Match by Holly Bush
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Earl’s Match is a contemporary romance historical tale that has many layers to make it interesting. It is the fifth book in the Thompsons of Locust Street. I love the cover. Each book tells the story of one of the Thompsons siblings and this one is Paydon’s story.
I don’t read a lot of historical romance it’s not really my genre but if it is done well, as this one is I am happy. Holly paints a vivid picture of the time with her narrative that makes it easily imagined. The characters feel real and have flaws and vulnerabilities. I admit I did quite enjoy this story.
This heartwarming story is filled with passion and pain, struggle, and drama.
Clarice is not your normal society girl in fact she prefers life outside of society where she can breathe and be herself. She is perfect for Payden, she is just what he needs to ground him and pull him out of his funk.
Paydon is still reeling from his imprisonment and is finding it hard to full out of the darkness that seems to have settled into his soul. However there maybe one person who maybe just be what he needs.
If you like historical romance, then you will like not only this book but this series.
