Rules for Engaging the Earl by Janna MacGregor
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Constance Lysander needs to marry and the man she has chosen is Jonathan, Earl of Sykeston. Jonathan and Constance were childhood friends but then life happened and the two of them haven’t seen each other in years.
I don’t normally recap books in series especially not in historical romance series but if you didn’t read the first book (go do so now), let me give you a quick recap.
Constance and two other women married a scheming swindler who died, leaving all three of the women penniless and leaving Constance with a baby.
Constance’s original reason to marry is to provide her baby with a name. But as time goes on, she remembers the feelings she had for Jonathan.
Constance makes herself comfortable in Jonathan’s home but as time goes on, wife and husband start to keep secrets that could endanger both of their lives.
This book gets downgraded to four stars because it irritated me that they wouldn’t just talk to each other and fix their problems.
I did however love seeing these characters again. Meri’s widows still have a strong bond and it was great to see how they always wanted to protect Constance.
I cannot wait to read the next book in the series
