Publisher Description

“You can’t help but fall in love with Lynsay Sands!” —Christina Dodd

 

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lynsay Sands trades in highland kilts for lush ballrooms and high-waisted gowns in The Countess, the first in a brand new, sexy, laugh-out-loud funny Regency romance series. Fans of Julie Garwood, Jill Barnett, and Teresa Medeiros will adore The Countess, and sympathize with her hilarious attempts to cover up the untimely demise of her despicable husband, even as the late earl’s twin brother sets her heart aflutter. The much adored creator of the popular Argeneau vampire family paranormal romance novels, the incomparable Lynsay is equally adept at historical romance—as this wonderful Regency romp so emphatically demonstrates!

Regardless this story is irresistible it will suck you in and keep you flipping the pages =) I won't give it away but I loved the ending I didn't see that coming at all & I so thought I knew who the killer was..Can't wait for the next book I absolutely love the H/H already and can't wait to read there story."

    " This was pretty good, there were only two problems that I had with. One was that the events took place so quickly, over 3 or so days, that's awfully fast for these things to have happened. But the plot calls for it, I mean how long can you hide a dead person? The other was that the 2nd book about these sisters is set at the same time, so the flow was a little off, at least to me. But all in all a good quick read. "
