Synopsis

"Where have you been all my life, Kelly Bowen? If Julia Quinn, Sarah MacLean, and Lisa Kleypas were to extract their writing DNA, mix it in a blender, and have a love child, Kelly Bowen would be it." -- HeroesandHeartbreakers.com

Earl. War hero. Notorious rake. After the Battle of Waterloo, Eli Dawes was presumed dead-and would have happily stayed that way. He's no longer the reckless young man he once was, and only half as pretty. All he wants is to hide away in his country home, where no one can see his scars. But when he tries to sneak into his old bedroom in the middle of the night, he's shocked to find someone already there.

Rose Hayward remembers Eli as the arrogant lord who helped her late fiance betray her. Finding him stealing into her art studio doesn't correct her impression. Her only thought is to get him to leave immediately. Yet the tension between them is electric, and she can't help but be drawn to him. He might be back from the dead, but it's Rose who is suddenly feeling very, very much alive.

Regret is a far worse fate than fear”, Clara said quietly “It will last a lifetime.” This is what this book was about! I really enjoyed it! First the hero, Eli, and then the heroine, Rose!

Goodreads review by Pamela on September 21, 2018

Lyrical, poignant, psychologically complex, and featuring a very layered and a very likable hero and heroine. The prose and dialogue range from above average to excellent. It managed to feel (somewhat!) authentically historical yet still very accessible and relatable to modern audiences, a feat whic......more

Goodreads review by Rainz on April 03, 2022

Kelly Bowen is a new author for me, in spite of the fact that historical romances are the most read genre in my read list. Last Night With the Earl I would say impressed with the strong characterization of its leads and some of the subjects being raised thru the story. There are multiple references......more
