Review: An Earl to Remember by Stacy Reid


Synopsis

Miss Georgianna Eleanor Heyford may be naught but a gentleman’s daughter, but even she’s heard the rumors about the Earl of Stannis’s exceptional charm and good looks. Surely she can cater his luxurious yacht party without getting swept away. But a terrible misunderstanding leaves Georgianna fired, furious, and with little recompense. Which is precisely when her opportunity for vengeance washes ashore…

Daniel Rutherford, the Earl of Stannis, has absolutely no memory of who he is. They tell him he must have fallen overboard, and the only person he seems to recognize is the lovely Georgianna—who strikes a chord of familiarity…and the faintest memory of heating his blood. Only now this inelegant, poorly-dressed woman claims to be his wife!

But the truth is, Georgianna, is finally getting her revenge. The dashing earl will work off the money he owes her and no one will be the wiser. Except the longer he stays with her and her younger sisters, the more it feels like he belongs there. And that perhaps he’d find a forever place in Georgianna’s heart…at least, until his memory returns...

Review

It's an interesting, fun, and hot historical romance novel that will make you smile at the sweetness and cringe at the awkwardness sometimes. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and would recommend it to all romance lovers. Though the story mostly flows beautifully, there are some boring parts in the middle, which make it feel dragged. Otherwise, it's a perfect read for a summer afternoon.

Georgie is trying to run a household and raise her sisters well. It's not easy and she needs more jobs as a chef. Her cooking is not the problem, because it is superb, but the problem is that she doesn't have any connections. And right now, she really needs word of mouth to keep getting catering jobs. So, when she receives a job offer of a lifetime, which will pay well and open future doors for her, she has to accept. Things didn't go as planned and now, she has been fired without her full pay and no hope of a recommendation. When a chance of getting revenge comes along, who is she to deny herself the pleasure?

Daniel has no memory of who he is or where he comes from. So, when a beautiful young woman claims to be his wife, who is he to disagree? Spending his days performing chores, helping his wife, and getting to know his sisters-in-law seems too good to be true. Even if his memories never return, he can fall in love with his charming wife all over again.

Neither realizes that when it comes to the matter of hearts, we rarely have any control.
