The Most Eligible Lord in London

Today's post is on The Most Eligible Lord in London by Ella Quinn. It is 361 pages long and is published by Zebra Books. The cover has the two main characters on it. There is mild foul language, sex and sexuality, and very mild violence in this novel. There story is told from third person close of the main characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- Handsome, rakish, incorrigibly flirtatious—Fredrick, Lord Littleton, is notorious. Lady Adeline Wivenly is resolved to keep him at arm’s length during her first Season—until she overhears another woman’s plot to trick him into marriage. Even a rogue is undeserving of such deception, and Adeline feels obliged to warn him—only to find herself perilously attracted..

In the past, Littleton’s charm nearly got him leg-shackled to the wrong woman. Now he’s positive he’s found the right one, for Adeline is everything he wants and needs in a wife. Her sense of justice is so strong she agrees to help him despite her mistrust. But can the ton’s most elusive lord convince the lady he is finally serious about marriage—as long as she will be his bride?

Review- A sweet historical romance between two very likable characters. Lord Littleton is not really a rake at all. He was starting to seriously court a lady in the previous season but discovered that they would not suit. Instead of telling her, he panicked and went home without explaining himself. Now in the new season he meets Lady Adeline and they have much in common but she is friends with the lady he disappointed and wants to be loyal to her friend. The plot is nice, the characters are good, but the villains are the only problem I have with this book. It starts out that the villain is a man who wants to marry Adeline but he is not a good person at all and then the villain shifts to a slaver in England after slavery has been abolished. I am fine with two villains but not with switching villains more than half way through a book. But other than that it was a fine novel and if you like historical romances then you should try this one.

I give this book a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I borrowed this book from my local library.
