Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady by TL Clark is a new type of historical romance for me. I would give this book a four out of five stars. I really loved the setting and point of view. I love reading a story where the thoughts are expressed and Lady Anne’s realistic expectations kept me grounded. I really struggled to put the book down, I definitely had those moments where I had to put my kindle down and breath and they jump back.

I’m not usually a huge fan of Regency Romance, yet I enjoyed the narrative in this story. There are several threads all interwoven through the story and they unravel at a great pace.

The character development, the story line, the pace of the story was all terrific.

This has been one of my favorite genes for as long as I can remember. This author brings the story to life. I was pulled in right from the beginning and had a hard time putting it down once I started it. The characters are well developed and I enjoyed watching them grow throughout the story. Lady Anne is in need of a husband and she has her sights set on Lord Felsenworth. Can he prove that he is the one for her despite his status? Great characters, I highly recommend this book.

I have always found the Regency era to be fascinating just because I see where we are at now compared to back then. To read about women who were treated like property (and in all actuality, land was probably treated better than a woman) and add in all the loose tongues with gossip and I’m hooked. I’m also a little picky on my historical reads considering I have a degree in history but I do have to say I loved this! The dialogue to the storyline had me hooked! This author painted everything perfectly that the story flowed and I couldn’t put it down. Even the history buff in me was giddy!

Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady by T.L. Clark is a brilliant example of a historical fiction novel. The author has done a great job of painting a very realistic and easy to visualise image of what life was life in Regency London.
My one and only niggle about this book is that I wasn’t overly keen on the cover. It isn’t something I would normally focus on but for some reason the cover almost turned me off this book. If you are in the same position I was then trust me when I pull out the old cliché and tell you not to judge this book by its cover. I was so surprised by how much I liked this story, and how much I liked the main character Lady Anne. I was beyond pleased that I gave this book a go and you will be too!!!
I really felt like I had been transported back to that era. The author provides so much detail that it is like you are right there with her. You are taken through the ups and downs of her first season and everything that entails.
If you are a fan of regency romance then definitely give this book a go!

Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady by T.L Clark is something a little different from what I have read from her before, and I have read most of her books now. This is a regency/historical romance, which paints a vivid and accurate portrait of life in the Ton- and the expectations, responsibilities, and duty that were placed on a proper young lady’s shoulders. We see how women were treated, what society and families expected- and how everything could ‘come off the rails’ with the wrong word, a look, or a scandal. London of the day came to life- painted in rich detail with the author’s clever word-smithing.
Ms. Clark writes beautifully, and in this story she does so in a style and language that is within keeping of the times. The ‘proper’, ‘formal’ prose has a bit of a poetic style to it- which gave the book a little more ‘personality’ than I had initially expected.
Lady Anne is the daughter of a Duke and is about to make her Debut into society. She’s graceful and beautiful- and not too thrilled about having to do her ‘duty’. She dreams of finding true love and real affection- not entering into a “match’ of status and wealth. We follow along as her story unfolds….

Thank you, Ms. Clark!

By: TL Clark
5 out of 5 stars

The story Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady by TL Clark is a historical romance book. It is a story that pulls you in from the beginning and doesn’t let you go until you have read the final page. It is a book that takes you back to a time when there are grand balls, courtships, young ladies have their “coming out season”, and all the rules that go along with it. It is a time when society dictates what is acceptable and in order to avoid scandal one must conform. I loved reading about the character of Lady Anne. It is her first “season” and a marriage match is the goal. Anne is strong, intelligent, and tends to say what she really thinks. Who will catch Anne’s eye and win her over? What does the future hold for Lady Anne? Read this book to find out. This story has heartbreaking as well as heartwarming moments. My emotions went up and down with each chapter that I read. I grew to care about Lady Anne and wanted her to find happiness. This book will draw you in and I found myself getting lost reading about all the different characters and their interactions with Lady Anne. Most characters are either family, friends, or helpful to Lady Anne. There however are those that have their own selfish agenda. Don’t miss out on a book that will transport you to another period of time and have you glued to the pages. I highly recommend reading this story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady is a very enjoyable historical romance from T.L. Clark. This is a genre that I do not usually read but I really liked the blurb and it came highly recommended. I have to say that I really, really enjoyed this book.
Set in Regency London we are told the story of 17 year old Lady Anne Frithringham. It is her ‘come out’ season in London where she has to attend many balls and events in the hope of finding a suitable husband. As the daughter of a Duke, there are many constraints on who would be considered suitable.
I warmed to Lady Anne as a character straight away, enjoying the many thoughts going through her head. I loved reading her exploits as she meets the many men who vie for her attention. A very mixed bunch indeed, from young and handsome to older and arrogant.
I also loved as the story progressed once Anne was married, It was interesting to see how she coped as a wife. It must be said that one of my favourite scenes takes place on her wedding night. I won’t give anything away but I found it hilarious. I also do not want to mention who became her husband as that would spoil much of the story.
I would definitely recommend this book to others, even if this is not a genre you normally read.

Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady by T. L. Clark is a great story for those who are fans of historical fiction, Jane Austen, or the Regency era in general. Lady Anne Frithringham, daughter of the Duke of Hesford is of the marrying age and is scared about her prospects. She is heading into this search without all the notions of romance but of the importance of finding a suitable husband. I love this period because as far as women have come there are still some common factors between the periods. Parents want a good match for their daughters, men are not always the most uprights, and fortunes can be won or lost overnight. This story is well written and was a quick read for me. I like that Lady Anne is reasonable and not a flighty female. She has her head on straight but must navigate her role as daughter and wife in the eyes of society. I am going to keep this author on my watch list for further books in the future.

Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady by TL Clark. This is the story of Regency London and Lady Anne Frithringham daughter of the Duke of Hesford. She is about to enter society, beautiful and elegant, taught all the proper things but scared to death. She is ready to get married and be loved but also scared of what it entails. Lord Felsenworth is trying to prove himself worthy despite his lower rank of Earl. Lady Anne is struggling between her head and her heart as she picks a partner. When she finally thinks she has one picked out she realizes he’s not all he says he is leaving her more confused than ever. She learns not all relationships especially marriages are not always created equal. This story is such an enjoyable description of courtship and marriage in the era of Regency London thru Lady Anne’s eyes. You realize some things haven’t changed at all today and some things are radically different. Such a good book!

This book is a wonderful portrayal of love in the Regency period. Thoroughly researched, the author takes strides to make this story as authentic as possible and she does not disappoint! The book reads just like a Jane Austen novel. The historical introduction is insightful and sets the mood of the story. Anne is a character the reader cannot help but fall in love with. Her longing for love and companionship conflicts with her sense of duty. I’m a sucker for Regency romances and this one is a must read for romance fans!

I loved this story! It is one of my favourite genres and this author absolutely did it justice! I lost myself in the story so easily and was transported to 1800’s Regency London! The authors writing really was excellent, I was fully invested in the story from beginning to end. I could tell that she had really taken the time to make sure what she was writing was in keeping with the time period and she did it perfectly in my opinion. I have read a lot of stories that take place in this time period and I think this is probably one of my favourites!
I loved the character Lady Anne! I thought she was great! I loved the way in which the author chose to write the story – for me it gave me a real insight into Lady Anne’s life and her story – I felt really involved in what I was reading!
Regency Love: Reflections of a Young Lady was a beautifully written story – one that I loved reading and would absolutely recommend to others 100%!!

This is a sympathetic look at the life of a young lady entering Society in Regency England.

Lady Anne discovers there are many pitfalls in the marriage mart. Not all is as she expected it to be.

This is Regency England where fortunes are made and lost with alarming reglularity.

And even if she ensnares a husband, what happens after? Having opened the doors to the drawing rooms, they do not close upon the bedroom and beyond. This is a realistic experience whilst maintaining the fervour of a novel.

Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer fans will love the authenticity. Christi Caldwell ones will enjoy the naughty bits.

NB – contains an attempted seduction and arousing scenes of marital duties

Written in first person POV

May not be suitable for gently bred ladies

Love Bites (Darkness & Light Duology Book 1) by TL Clark – Review by Jenni Bishop

Love Bites (Darkness & Light Duology, #1)Love Bites by T.L. Clark
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Love Bites (Darkness & Light Duology Book 1) by TL Clark is a fun paranormal fantasy romance story and an intriguing read. TL has written well rounded characters and a paranormal world with a twist. There is never a dull moment as we get to know and understand the complexities of all the different beings and their ways of living. This story has a wonderful and unique mix of witches and faeries, sorcerers and dragons and a new species that make this an action packed exciting read. Add in a little fun banter and mates and you have everything to keep you entrenched in the story. ​The story ends on a cliffhanger but rest assured the next book is available for us to sink into straight away.
