Powerful emotionally! I have just finished reading Grace Burrowes's book ANDREW, her seventh book in the Lonely Lords series. What a marvelous story set in the Regency era, it was perfect for me! It had everything I expect to find in that genre of romance, love, passion, suspense and intrigue. Andrew's story was very intense and filled with high emotions, I cried and laughed. The plot was well developed, leaving clues, and kept me captivated until the end. I loved the chemistry between Andrew and Astrid. Some scenes are a little sad to read, but it was the reality and challenge that women had to live for that period of time in the Regency. Astrid had been in love with Andrew since she was seventeen, but certain events, pushed her to marry some else. After two years, she becomes a widow and meets Andrew again. Will the attraction be the same? Does she still love him? Their lives were filled with ups and downs but in the end, they both loved each other, for Astrid, Andrew, was her knight in shining armor. I did not like the character Henry, because he was envious, jealous and too ambitious! Even, if I didn't read any of her previous books in this series, I really enjoyed it very much. Let's say, this story is filled with strong emotions! Again, Ms. Burrowes did not disappoint me with Andrew's story filled with secrets and suspense. I highly recommend her book if you love a Regency romance! You will enjoy every minute of it! Bless him. Andrew is a lovely chap - and Astrid obviously needs a bit of TLC after her stupid marriage (I had a similar stupid one, so I say this with a mingling of exasperation and sympathy) - but this book is essentially Gareth Pt II: The pregnancies. I didn't like it any the less but I think the book was difficult to disentangle from the events and the characters in Gareth's tale. So I was pleased that A&A got their HEA but more satisfied about the wider family unit pulling through and together. So it was a 3.5 for Andrew and a 4 for the two books together.
Do You like book Andrew: Lord Of Despair (2013)?
The continuing characters in the series keep me reading. I enjoyed Andrew and Astrid's story.
