Book Review Viscount in Love by Eloisa James

Viscount in Love by Eloisa James

Victoria Sutton is 21-year-old woman in her third season in regency-era London. Despite her beauty and charm, she can’t seem to secure a husband – mostly, she assumes, is due to her inability to read. But she wishes to marry for love anyway, and not feel pressured to suppress her personality for the sake of her partner. Her sister Lenora, on the other hand, is engaged to the handsome and wealthy Viscount Dominic Kelbourne. Both of whom are known to be cold and cruel. Torie sees them as perfect for each other – and she absolutely would not dream of looking at her sister’s fiancé, or his muscles, in any inappropriate manner. But when the Viscount’s sister suddenly dies, he becomes the adoptive father of his 11-year-old niece and nephew. The twins are fond of ghost stories and unfamiliar with proper manners. While Torie finds them charming, her sister refuses to become stepmother to the two “fiends.” Lenora breaks off the engagement, leaving Dominic in search of a wife who will fit in with the children. Obviously, Torie would be the best option. But she does not want to simply be a nanny. And Dominic doesn’t expect to ever fall in love. But sure enough, both of them are surprised by what develops from the arrangement. Viscount in Love by Eloisa James explores what happens when a marriage of convenience turns into an opposites attract story in which both characters get the happily ever after they never expected.
