USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Paula writes steamy, emotional historical romances featuring strong heroines and brooding heroes with a penchant for talking dirty. Her stories are full of witty banter, scorching chemistry, and wouldn’t be complete without a touch of angst.

A lovely e ending to the trilogy.
Charlotte and her husband the Duke of Dandridge have been estranged since their wedding night due to a misunderstanding.
She has been living on his estate for years making her own life when he shows up. He has decided it is time for an heir and she wants a divorce.
This is a very interesting, entertaining read with lots of twists and turns and some very steamy scenes.
I highly recommend the book.
This is a book that will stay with me for a long time. I generally don’t think much about a book when I have to put it down to do something, but Ian and Lottie’s story had such heartbreak, pain and love that I just couldn’t NOT think about it. The author does a great job of making all your emotions come to the surface: Anger and hate for Ian, grief and sorrow for Lottie, and hope that the chemistry they have will be enough to bring them back together. Pride does really go before the fall and pride is the culprit here. This is a story that shows real issues being discussed and the reality of trying to work through them. Their struggles made the HEA that much sweeter.
I received this story for free and these are my own opinions.
Lots of squishy angst in this story and thank goodness for happy ever afters. Honestly, I would not have survived without that knowledge.
Ian and Charlotte told their tale of love with such heartfelt emotion and love and it oozed out of ever page as their story progress, so much so that I couldn't help but get thoroughly drawn into it and feel what they were going through.
Thiis a wonderful story about two remarkable main characters who deserved to win and succeed where so many do not.
I read an early copy of this book and am happy to leave a voluntary review of it.
“He reached out for her, feeling her brokenness, and needing more than anything in that moment to be her strength.”
Charlotte and Ian once had it all. Then lies drove them apart. Seven years later Ian comes back determined to reclaim Charlotte but seven years is a long time with miles of space between them. Charlotte only wanted love and a family of her own, and Ian just wanted to be loved for his own sake. This story was sad and maddening all at the same. Ian is his own worst enemy at times and Charlotte is afraid to trust again. But the HEA is so touching!! As a bonus, we get to see Lily, Rafe, Kate and Gabriel again which is a joy. Both Lily and Kate offer comfort and sage advice when needed. Heartfelt read!! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC copy of this book.
This series is full of surprises, Sister no 3, Prudence, the organiser, the sister who keeps to the shadows, who doesnt want a husband. Her Brother who is determined to find out why she does not wish to marry, and persuades his friend to find out. Enter Ben, prepared to go to any lengths to get what he wants, even a complete makeover, and a houseparty. Spending time with Pru changes his perspective, and he realises what he really wants and needs. The story was fun, and i like the banter between the characters, and the growth of the family. Each story is so different, I really am looking forward to the future instalments.

A lovely e ending to the trilogy.
Evelyn Markham is determined not to marry the man her father has decided she should marry. Dalton Rochester is determined not to act on his feelings for Evelyn since she is the younger sister of his best friend.
Evelyn decides to approach Rochester for help to make sure she does not have to marry the man. All she wants from him is a little help in breaking a few rules but nothing too serious. Rochester does not want anything to do with this scheme especially the breaking of rules part.
Let the fun adventure begin!! I really loved Evelyn and Rochester’s story it was a lot of fun to read!! The book was very entertaining with all the witty banter between them and the twist and turns it took to get to their happy ending. I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next book in the series!!
If you love friends to lovers and brother's best friend this is the book for you. Evelyn is independent and goes after what she wants. Rochester is there to fix any problems she gets into and eventually falls for Evelyn's antics. There is the perfect amount of drama, humor, and steam to keep you reading until the end. I look forward to the next book in this series.
I loved this enjoyable story, Evelyn knew her own mind and what she wanted, she made happen. Dalton had some emotional baggage that kept me closed off. I loved all the banter, twists, surprises, gripping scenes, and so much more that you won’t be able to put this one down. I loved everything Dalton did to get the outcomes he wanted. You won’t be disappointed, I sure wasn’t.
