The Earl's New Bride was a cute read, and I actually liked this one. Now I won't say that this was my favorite, I did read this one in audiobook format and while it was enjoyable there, the narration left much to be desired in some ways, so it took some of the enjoyment that I had out of the story. This was a sweet romance, that takes place in regency england. Its a story which features our couple, who aren't at first each other's expectations but end up finding a deep connection to each other. Their chemistry slowly builds until they have to come to conclusion of wanting a future together and fighting for that future.

This is a romance that has very low angst, its slow, steady and sure of a feeling type of romance.

Didn't review per content. I prefer reading clean reads and found that this has too much content for me. It would be nice if Netgalley offered a rating scale. It would also be nice if they had an option to leave feedback when someone has decided not to read or review a book so they can get it off their netgalley shelf without having to write a 100 word review.

4.5 out of 5 stars! Simon has been known as the Black Earl ever since he inherited his title and because of the peculiar situation that he was found in during his mistress’s death about 5 years ago. Yet, now that he has “been cleared” of any wrongdoing, his next goal is to obtain a wife in good standing to save his reputation and so he can get an heir. However, life has thrown Simon a lot of bad curveballs, will he consider Henrietta one of those bad ones or the best thing that has ever happened to him?

This historical romance was unlike any I had read before … it was intense … it was sweet … it had a mystery that kept you guessing … yet in the end it was the biggest twist of all that sets it apart and makes it unique all on its own. So, if you want a historical romance read that will keep you guessing, than this is the novel for you!

However, even with all that boastfulness about this novel it was truly Simon and Henrietta that captivated me. I liked that they both have their own “issues” or personal “deformities” to overcome, since it showed how they surmounted everything to get together. In truth, though, they fit each other perfectly in the way they looked at the world and tried to unintentionally protect one another.

In addition, the ending was very special. So, overall, I highly recommend this novel!
