"Headstrong heroin and protective hero"

Fresh Fiction Review

Romance Historical

GOOD EARL GONE BAD is the second book in the Lords of Anarchy series. It can be read as a stand-alone novel but still I recommend reading the one before this. This was a little confusing for me at the beginning of the story, since I have not read the first book.

Jasper Fawley, the Earl of Mainwaring, is an honorable, charming hero who likes to gamble and has nothing to do with carriage riding since he lost his father in a carriage accident. So he doesn't like it when the headstrong Hermione is accepted as an only female member of the infamous Lords of Anarchy.

Lady Hermione is headstrong, outspoken and passionate about carriage riding as a member of the Lords of Anarchy. Her father, Lord Upperton, not only gambles her daughter's possession, but also his own daughter at the gaming table.

Now Lady Hermione is in a difficult situation. She is suspected of murder and has to marry the Earl of Mainwaring, an infamous gamester with no respect for her riding skills.

Can Lady Hermione fall in love with a man who loves to gamble, and clear her name? Or can Jasper trust his headstrong bride who is suspected of murder?

GOOD EARL GONE BAD is a page-turning historical romance. It is an easy read with mystery, danger, murder and sweet love. I love how protective Jasper was toward Hermione and how strong Hermione was with all the problems and dangers around her.

This is a great historical suspense romance that keeps you entertained with witty dialogue through the whole story. I can't wait to read the next one in the Lords of Anarchy series.

SUMMARY

TEMPTING FATE Marriage? To a gambler? You must be joking! Yet Lady Hermione Upperton has never backed down from a challenge. When her spendthrift father offers her at the gaming tables, she is given a difficult choice-wed the Earl of Mainwaring, an infamous gamester with no respect for her skills with the reins, or face charges for the murder of a member of the infamous Lords of Anarchy. Either way she'll have to clear her name. Can she count on her husband's help the way she has begun to count on his kisses? RISKING ROMANCE All Jasper Fawley, the Earl of Mainwaring, wanted was a night of cards. But by the end of the evening he's walked away with a fortune-and a bride who's suspected of murder. Jasper knows Hermione is passionate about her unorthodox membership in the Lords of Anarchy, but he's certain she would never kill to keep it. Can he protect his headstrong wife from prosecution and a ruthless killer without endangering both their hearts in the process?
