Meet the Earl at Midnight – Gina Conkle

Summary

The Beast captures a Beauty

The reclusive Lord Edward, Earl of Greenwich, never shows his face in London Society. Gossip pages claim he’s mad, so it’s no wonder Lydia Montgomery is horrified when she’s packed off to his estate for a marriage of convenience, but she’ll do anything to save her mother.

Can they set each other free?

Lydia would rather devote all her time to her art, but a deal’s been struck with the phantom lord—the first man who understands her need to paint. With the passage of time, an undeniable passion grows. And if love is what she wants, Lydia must unmask the man everyone believes is a beast…or lose him forever.

Review

My first title by Gina Conkle! I’m an absolute sucker for Regency romances and this Beauty and the Beast retelling hit that sweet spot that only historical romances do. A great escapism book.

It’s not a difficult read and the prose is great at building the visuals of the time, very additional but it would be lovely to have some descriptions of meals to make a perfect cozy vibe to go along with the romance.

“The Lady Meets Her Match” is the next book in the ‘Midnight Meetings’ series (great name by the way!) and to be honest the description got me even more intrigued than this one to be honest!
