In Earl Crush, author Alexandra Vasti delivers a delightful Regency romance filled with humor, intrigue, and unexpected love. The story follows Lydia Hope-Wallace, a socially anxious heiress who has secretly penned political pamphlets for three years. Engaged in correspondence with the reclusive Earl of Strathrannoch, she decides to travel to Scotland to propose a marriage of convenience after learning of his financial troubles. However, upon arrival, Lydia discovers that she has been writing to the earl’s younger brother, Davis, who has misrepresented himself. This revelation sets off a whirlwind of emotions as Lydia navigates her feelings for the genuine earl, Arthur Baird, who is initially taken aback by her sudden appearance. As they join forces to locate Davis, who is entangled in espionage, their chemistry ignites, leading to a passionate connection that neither expected. With themes of mistaken identities, protective instincts, and the journey of self-discovery, Earl Crush offers a charming narrative that explores the complexities of love and family.
If you love romance, you will be captivated by Earl Crush for its engaging blend of witty dialogue, steamy chemistry, and a strong feminist heroine. Vasti’s ability to craft relatable characters, combined with a plot filled with secrets and adventure, keeps readers invested from start to finish. The mutual attraction between Lydia and Arthur is both sweet and suspenseful, making their journey to love an exhilarating experience. Furthermore, the inclusion of social commentary and the clever twist of mistaken identity elevate the story, ensuring this novel is a must-read for fans of historical romance who appreciate depth alongside the romance. This was my second book by the author and I loved it just as much as Ne’er Duke Well! This book is scheduled to be released on January 21, 2025.
