review 1: Lady Elizabeth is in her 3rd "Season". She has had no one in all this time ask for her hand in marriage. She has started her own charity. She is finding work for disabled soldiers returning from war with the French. She wonders if she ever finds a husband will he allow her to continue her "work". An Earl with curly blonde hair decides that Elizabeth would look good as his wife - attractive, but not more attractive than him. At a Ball he walks her into the garden to steal a kiss. She described his kiss as slobbery like her friend's dog. She didn't know that George, a recently named Viscount was watching the kiss from the bushes. George has a secret weapon in his wish to win Elizabeth - his Mistress wants him to marry her. So Josephine, George's mistress, teaches h... moreim to be a great lover. When he steals a kiss from Elizabeth, she likes it and wants more. She actually dares to ask him to demonstrate what making love is like. They plan a tryst at his home. He promises to give her great pleasure and not to take her virginity. When she shows up and she agrees to slowly being stripped and seduced, he is nearly blown away by her responsiveness. He promises her that if she turns down the Earl, he will ask her father for her hand. Elizabeth must decide - an Earl she can't stand to have kiss her, or George who she doesn't know is titled and has brought her great pleasure and been trustworthy. She must take her parents' wishes into account as well.There was eroticism, humor, generosity, friendships, growth. I really enjoyed this historical romance. Elizabeth was very forthright. George was cute in his responses to both Josephine and Elizabeth.
review 2: An original take on historical English romance with various points of view each get a chapter with hilarious chapter titles which makes an good story into a better one.Mr becomes Lord when George Bennett-Jones's uncle dies and leaves a Viscount title and a wealthy estate at the beginning of the year. His wonderfully smart mistress, Miss Josephine teaches George how to woo a worthy lady but also how to keep one for a lifetime. Josie was one cool and understanding woman that made the best of a bad situation because she really didn't have any choices when she became a mistress, but she did choose very very wisely as we see other mistresses don't always have that choice.So Elizabeth is ready to get married after more then a few seasons and is only letting Gabriel, the handsome Earl of Trenton to court her because she thinks that there aren't any other choices. Although that is because she doesn't know that her powerful Marquess father has been culling the weak, stupid and desperate away from his smart beloved daughter. Elizabeth was a more then a bit risky with her reputation with starting her own charity for war veterans as well as getting kissing lessons from George, but she couldn't have chosen a better honorable sweet lord to fall in love with. So the obvious happens and everyone seems to get a HEA.I'm split about how much I liked this story because it was well written and edited as well as had some original dialogue but there was something that kept the story from flowing smoothly. Perhaps it was the changing points of view? I'm not sure because I really would have liked to give this three stars but there was something off in the first third of the book.378 pages and kindle freebie2 stars (maybe 2 and half?!) less
