Review & Blog Tour ~ The Earl Next Door - First Comes Love by Amelia Grey



ABOUT THE EARL NEXT DOOR:

 What does a fiercely independent young widow really want? One determined suitor is about to find out…

When Adeline, Dowager Countess of Wake, learns of her husband’s sudden death, she realizes she’s free. At last, she can do, go, and be as she pleases. Finally, she can have the life she has always dreamed of. She doesn’t need, or want, to remarry. Especially not the supremely dashing future Marquis of Marksworth, who makes Adeline yearn for his desire…

Lord Lyonwood, son of a philandering marquis, will not be like his father. He wants to run his estates and watch them flourish—and find a wife who brings love to his life. When he meets spirited and self-reliant Adeline in a case of near-scandalous mistaken identity, Lyon feels he’s met his match. But Adeline isn’t interested in a marriage proposal. She will only accept becoming his lover—and Lyon finds it hard to refuse. Unless the fire of his passion can melt Adeline’s resolve…





OH wow, what an amazing tale! You will need 5 large teapots for this tale! This is a new author to me and I must admit she has blown me away with her writing! Truly impeccable! Lady Adeline, a widow, with the help of her two widow friends start a boarding school for unfortunate girls to help teach them how to sew and other useful tasks in order to help them learn a trade to avoid a life of poverty. There is just one problem, her school sits next to the Marquis, Lord Lyonwood who at first mistakes her and her school for a brothel, not only that he also begins taking over the neighborhood and Lady Adeline's carriage can't get down her own drive, so she must walk in the rain. Well, being the strong, determined woman that she is, she barges into his card party and demands his friends not park their carriages along the whole street blocking her from her own drive. Well, Lord Lyonwood is absolutely taken by this spirited woman and soon as more challenges come their way, sparks begin to fly and their hearts begin to melt for one another!

I absolutely loved these characters and especially adore Adeline, she's just so gutsy and spirited and I can't wait to see the future stories about her friends and see how her school continues to grow! Truly a wonderful story and if you're looking for a good historical with a spirited heroine than this is the tale for you!
