How to Train Your Earl

A roguish earl must fight using his honor and not his sword to win his lady's hand in How To Train Your Earl, the third book in the First Comes Love trilogy from bestseller Amelia Grey.

Brina Feld has settled into a life devoted to helping others since the sinking of the Salty Dove left her widowed. She has no need for a man in her contented life. But when the notorious and handsome Lord Blacknight returns and awakens her desires, her peace and serenity vanish. If she agrees to an alliance with him, she knows she will have to battle her heart to keep from being snared under his spell.

Zane, the Earl of Blacknight, was never supposed to inherit the earldom, so he didn't much care to lead a respectable life before then. Fistfights, card games, and drinking are the order of the day. Now he's determined to change his rakish ways and he knows the proper lady who can help him. There's just one problem: He's already bet he'll win her hand before the Season is over. With her resolve to out-scheme him, how can he show her that his love is true?

My Review

How to Train Your Earl by Amelia Grey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved this, it is the last book in the First Comes Loves series. I haven't read the first two books in the series, But I didn't feel lost as I read.
Brina and Zana meet in an unusual way while in Paris. She ducks into an unlocked room to escape a drunk man chasing her. When she turns around the last thing she expected to find is a man tied up to a chair. He growls for her to free him. But she has questions. When she finally sets him free he grabs her and they share a steamy kiss before he leaves.

When they meet again in London, Zane is now the Earl of Blacknight and he knows the name of the woman he kissed in Paris. Brina Feld is a widow, who spends her time giving back to those in need. When Zane approaches her, she lets him know she has no intention of ever marrying again, so he makes a wager to win her hand by the end of the season.
