Should I read in order?
This is the first novel in Frost’s Lords Love Curves series (what a great series name!!! I am so excited!!!!)
Basic plot:
After getting caught with a book of naughty etchings, Clara takes her friend’s father up on his offer to tutor her in the art of pleasure.
Give this a try if you want:
- Late Regency time period (1821)
- mostly country setting (the rest in London)
- Full figured heroine
- May-December pairing – heroine is the hero’s daughters age
- Lessons/tutor – heroine wants to learn about etchings she read in a book before she’s married to an elderly man
- Best friends…..father
- Hero feeds the heroine
- Leaves it open to a possible childless HEA
- Compromised heroine
Ages:
- Hero is “almost 20 years older than the heroine”, heroine is 22
My thoughts:
I really enjoyed this quick and steamy novella!
I haven’t read much age gap romance, but I enjoyed the taboo feeling here of getting involved with your friend’s dad. I also love anything resembling lessons or tutoring (it usually lends itself to lots of time spent together and touching, woohoo!) so this story was just super perfect for my mood.
Being short, it’s brief on the character development. I don’t think we end up really knowing much about Hugh, but you get a decent feel for Clara. I rather loved the epilogue. I’m definitely planning on continuing with the series.
Quotes/thoughts:
I love when the hero follows the heroine outside on the balcony!
This is dangerous. You can’t be alone with an unwed miss.
Yet that didn’t stop Hugh’s long legs from striding forward. Didn’t stop him from standing entirely too close to the off-limits woman.
---
You weren't a lady this morning while sucking my cock.
---
"Then spread these thick thighs wider. Make room for your wolf because I'm going to fuck this tight cunt until you're screaming my name, begging to come. And I'll give it to you, lamb."
Content warnings:
- Heroine is treated as a servant in her home and is her elderly parent’s caretaker
- There’s an almost 20 year age gap between these mains, and the heroine is friends with the hero’s daughters
Locations of kisses/intimate scenes:
29% - kiss
45% - 🔥 hero feeds the heroine, ties her to the table, some light food play, oral for her
66% - 🔥 frolicking in the woods that leads to a blow job
71% - 🔥 her on top
89% - kisses
