This Earl is on Fire by Vivienne Lorret (Season's Original #2) @VivLorret @Avonbooks #NewRelease #Review #Giveaway #Historical


Liam is not ready to let go of the one woman who stirs his deepest longings.


THIS EARL IS ON FIRE
Season's Original #2
Vivienne Lorret
Releasing August 2nd, 2016
Avon Impulse


The sheltered daughter of a country baron, Miss Adeline Pimm comes to London looking for adventure… and finds it in the form of a bloody, unconscious man slumped in the doorway of her family's rented townhouse. Though his identity is a mystery, Adeline is inexplicably drawn to the handsome, injured man and vows to nurse him back to health.

Liam Cavanaugh, the scandalous Earl of Wolford, is startled when he awakens in an unfamiliar bed, wrapped in bandages that hinder his eyesight, with no memory of why he was beaten half to death. Although he can't see the witty young woman who tends to his wounds, her alluring voice--and a single stolen kiss from her soft lips--help soothe his pain. But when he is fully healed, Liam is not ready to let go of the one woman who stirs his deepest longings.

Liam will do whatever it takes to see Adeline again, even if it means giving up his rakish ways. But his disreputable past is not so easily forgotten and his secrets are far more dangerous than he-or Adeline-ever imagined.

So I officially can say that I absolutely loved THIS EARL IS ON FIRE!  Liam and Adeline were just the right amount of push and pull to keep my clinging to my kindle!  Lorret continues to prove that she is a talented story teller who brings the magic back to historical romance!

Adeline is in London with her family for her first time in society where she wants to experience exciting adventures.  The Pimms come to find a bloodied and bruised man in the doorway of their rental for the season, and they take him in and start to nurse his wounds.  From that moment, Adeline feels a certain skip in her heart....and it's denial, denial, denial from that moment on, as she never intends to marry and she will never be pitied or coddled again.  

The sweet sound of Adeline's voice is the one thing that keeps the pain at bay for Liam, and the more time they spend together, the more they banter and the more the heat flares between them.  You can literally see the sparks ignite when they are in the same room...and you will never think of porridge as sexy until you read this book!

The flow of the story is slow building, as a bit of mystery starts to build in the story, but I simply adore the way that Vivienne is able to write characters that feel so real, almost as if you are transported back in time, joining the ladies for an afternoon tea, or taking a turn about the room at one of the Dower Duchesses parties.

I can't tell you enough how much I am loving the Season's Original series, and the group of friends that we encounter throughout each title.  I loved the backstory of Liam and Adeline, two people who basically want the same things, for different reasons and they fight the feelings they have for each other at every turn.  I literally cried through the whole last few chapters!

OK....my suggestion is to buy THIS EARL IS ON FIRE....and you might want to grab THE DEBUTANTE IS MINE as well....and even the Holiday Anthology, ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS A DUKE, where we get Ivy and Vale's romance, THE DUKE'S CHRISTMAS WISH.

From the bestselling author of Welcome to Forever (“Full of heart and emotion!”—Lori Wilde) comes a sweet, sexy novel about breaking all the rules. In Seaside, North Carolina, the boys on the base are heroes—but that doesn’t mean they’re always well-behaved.

As a preacher’s daughter, Valerie Hunt only dates the very respectable, very boring men who meet her father’s strict standards. In private, however, she leads a double life as a romance writer of steamy stories about the least respectable sorts of men. Valerie has always kept her hottest fantasies separate from her real life, but when she nearly runs a hot-blooded biker off the road, the lines begin to blur.

Even though Valerie almost killed him, Griffin Black can’t be angry after he learns the reason for her distracted driving: an unruly puppy belonging to her ailing friend. As a member of the military police K-9 unit, Griffin insists on training the dog himself. But he soon wonders how he’s ever going to stay disciplined around the most alluring, down-to-earth, and totally unattainable woman he’s ever met. Valerie is the ultimate good girl. And Griffin is going to need all his old tricks to unleash her wild side.

Life down South just got a whole lot sweeter in Susan Schild’s new novel about a woman whose happily-ever-after is about to begin…whether she’s ready for it or not. 

Finally, just shy of forty years old, Linny Taylor is living the life of her dreams in her charming hometown of Willow Hill, North Carolina. The past few years have been anything but a fairy tale: Left broke by her con man late-husband, Linny has struggled to rebuild her life from scratch. Then she met Jack Avery, the town’s much-adored veterinarian. And she’s marrying him.

Everything should be coming up roses for Linny. So why does she have such a serious case of pre-wedding jitters? It could be because Jack’s prosperous family doesn’t approve of her rough-and-tumble background. Or that his ex-wife is suddenly back on the scene. Or that Linny has yet to win over his son’s heart. All these obstacles—not to mention what she should wear when she walks down the aisle—are taking the joy out of planning her wedding. Linny better find a way to trust love again, or she might risk losing the one man she wants to be with—forever…

After thwarting a deadly coup and saving the alliance between their worlds, Cara and Aelyx have finally earned a break. Their tiny island colony is everything they dreamed it would be―days spent gathering shells on the beach and nights in each other’s arms.

But the vacation is short-lived.

The treaty between Earth and L’eihr has awakened an ancient force that threatens to destroy them all. The Aribol, mysterious guardians charged with maintaining interstellar peace, deem the alliance a threat to the galaxy. They order a separation of the races, decreeing humans and L’eihrs must return to their own planets within the month or face extinction. In fact, they already have agents in place on Earth, ready to begin.

With the clock ticking, Aelyx and Cara assemble a team of colonists and race back to Earth, where they unite with old friends to solve the mystery of who the Aribol are, what they want, and the real reason the alliance has provoked them. As tensions build to a full-scale war, Aelyx and Cara must fight harder than ever―not just for their future, but for the survival of both their worlds.
