About The Earl's New Bride
Release date: September 7, 2015
Publisher: Entangled Publishing (Scandalous)
The Earl of Amhurst has returned to his estate in search of a wife and, more importantly, an heir. Simon Devere isn't interested in some comely, simpering creature. A beautiful woman only brings heartbreak and ruin, and Simon's disfigured visage is proof enough of that. No, he wants a wife who is unattractive and undesirable—and the homelier, the better.
But nothing about Lady Henrietta Beauchamp is homely. She is lovely and sweet...and struggles to mix with polite society when she would so much rather have plants for company. And yet Simon is her only hope for keeping Plumburn Castle in her family's possession. Even if it means marrying a man she doesn't love.
It's an impossible and unlikely match...unless this awkward beauty can bring hope back into a solitary beast's life.

Review:
4 Stars
I have to say that I really liked Lady Henrietta. She has that awkward shy, doesn't fit the mold kind of gal which makes her so relatable. This story has a little Beauty and the Beast feel to it because Simon believes he is hideous do to the scarring of his eye. He does tend to have a grouchy attitude at times, but once you find out what life has dealt him you can understand. Henrietta believes she can't garner Simon's attention to become his wife, but she makes a splash at their first meeting. I like how the things that Henrietta believes will have Simon looking elsewhere bring her in a light that Simon finds irresistible. I loved the epilogue was the perfect touch for this couple.
