Avon Impulse
Gabriel Ludlow, Viscount Everhart will never marry, and
thus is sure to win the bachelor’s wager against his friends. Assuming, of
course, that his deepest secret—a certain letter containing a marriage proposal
made in a moment of passion—doesn’t surface. After all, without Calliope Croft
to tempt him, there’s no danger in losing. Or in falling in love.
Calliope wants revenge. Five years ago, an anonymous love letter stole her
heart and ultimately broke it. Now, Casanova has struck again, and Calliope
vows to unmask the scoundrel, stopping him from breaking any more hearts. Yet,
time and again, Gabriel distracts her from her task, until she can no longer
deny that something about him calls to her...
Gabriel was a fool to deny the depth of his feelings for Calliope, but the
threat that kept him from her five years ago remains. Now, he must choose
between two paths: break her heart all over again or finally succumb to loving
her...at the risk of losing everything.
I am super
excited to be starting a new series by the amazing Vivienne Lorret, and I wasn’t
disappointed in the lease.
This
is a story where a letter is the most important part. Five years ago Calliope
Croft received a love letter, which changed the course of her life. She knew
that she could not accept the proposal of marriage from a friend, with such
love and passion out there waiting for her…but that was before other people received
the letters also. Calliope thinks she knows who sent the letter and not she is
out to expose him for the heartless fraud that he is.
Gabriel
Ludlow aka Viscount Everhart; loves Calliope with all his heart, but her bother
refuses to allow him to court her. Now five years later Calliope is back in his
life and asking questions; But Gabriel long with three friends have entered in
to a stupid wager, with the terms of them remaining bachelors. Add to the mix
Calliope’s crazy cousin and that leaves you with a story that is not only
heartfelt, but also one that has humor, which for a reader who normally hates
romantic-comedies; I have fallen in love with this story.
I was
blown away by the sheer pleasure of this story. I fell in love with the
characters in this book, but my favorites are Montwood and Danvers, they are
such riots.
Vivienne
Lorret has done it again, she has made me fall in love with a whole bunch of
new characters, whose stories I am clamoring to find out. I have to say that
she has become one of my new favorite historical romance authors, Her stories
are from the heart, flawless in there execution and very well researched,
which leaves you with a timeless story that you will never forget.
With all
that being said, I can only give The Elusive Lord Everhart one score…
10 out
of 10!
