His Lady Mistress

I love romance stories and this one was a tear jerker. A lot of the free books for my Kindle disappointed me, but this one was very good. It was well written and kept my interest throughout the entire story.

This book was so interesting that I forfeited all except one hour of sleep on a work night to complete the read. Now that's saying a lot. The story was so enthralling that I simply could not put it down. I look forward to a lot more from this author.

I stayed up way too late finishing this -- I just had to get to the happily-ever-after ending because I was so caught up in the romance between the main characters. It's true that there is a very long string of misunderstandings but this seemed within character and time period. Nothing too surprising happens as the plot is pretty standard romance fare but being well written, it was very satisfying. I also love that this was free for kindle as I would never have read it otherwise and now am eager to buy more of Ms. Rolls' books.

This is the book that got me into Elizabeth Rolls, and I loved it. The romance was wonderful and very sensual, the characters are believably flawed (sometimes this is difficult for romance novelists to accomplish) and while it is (as always) frustrating to see how their problems could be cleared up with an honest conversation about their misunderstandings, it is easy to see how the misunderstandings come to be and why each character stays within themselves instead of becoming vulnerable. Max's difficult family life is further explained in "A Compromised Lady," which is the story of Richard's romance. I have read and reread this book - LOVE IT.

This book is an excellent story of a historical period, love and passion, and plenty of twists and turns. The free price got me to read it, and I am hooked. Elizabeth Rolls' skill is followed up with the same characters in future books, the bachelors being friends and brothers. I've paid for those books so it should say something about the hook for me!
