About this eBook
USA Today-Bestselling Author: It’s easy to be daring when you’re in disguise—but what happens when the masks come off?
Ella Quinn’s bachelors are quite sure of what they want in life—and love—until the right woman opens their eyes . . .
After a painful heartbreak, Rupert, the handsome young Earl of Stanstead, has decided that when it comes to love, avoidance is best. Until he meets a woman who makes him forget his plan—and remember his longing for a wife and family. Yet he senses that she too has been hurt, though she attempts to hide her feelings—and more—in the most baffling and alluring way. Intrigued, Rupert is willing to play along, if winning her is the prize . . .
Crushed by her late husband’s scorn, Vivian, Countess of Beresford, believes she is monstrously undesirable. Sadly childless, she has moved to London resigned to a solitary life. Still, when she encounters Rupert at a masquerade ball, her disguise as Cleopatra emboldens her. Convinced he doesn’t recognize her, she begins an after-hours affair with him, always in costume—while allowing him to innocently court the real her by day. But when Rupert makes a shocking choice, will Vivian be able to handle the truth?

I hate discovering a series midway through. It is frustrating to know that you could have been enjoying these characters a long while ago. Ella Quinn writes fun and fearless characters. Lady Beresford's Lover is great evidence. Vivienne has set her sites on being her own woman. Love only leads to pain and heartbreak. Just ask Rupert. Rupert and Vivienne have sworn off societies conventions. However there is nothing more romantic than a masquerade ball.. Ms. Quinn's historical love stories are sexy, mysterious and full of intriguing characters and stunning romances. I would describe Lady Beresford's Lover as feast for the senses. I received an ARC of this story in exchange for an honest review.

Great read though it kept me on edge wondering if they would have everything work out for them. I have thoroughly enjoyed the entire series and look forward to reading more stories by this author!
