The Earl, Her Reluctant Guardian by Wareeze Woodson – Review by Jennifer Crain
The Earl, Her Reluctant Guardian by Wareeze Woodson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed this historical mystery/romance. One of the main reasons is the vivid descriptions of the setting, for example “fog hovered barely above the ground, gray, cold with a threat to engulf the entire area distorting sight and sound,” for it made me feel like I was in the 1800s. The budding romance between Jacob and Vanessa.
I am always looking for words I don’t know, and this book didn’t disappoint with the word benighted; or the unrest against Napoleon in France (which I didn’t know about it). The Vanesssa character was also written excellently, for example, one of my favorite lines was “I’m not a dashed female jumping at shadows” and “she was not some helpless, spiny ninny.”
Overall, I would highly recommend if you like a fast paced, intriguing story about two people destined to fall in love.
