Lord Langley Is Back In Town (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
I love regency romances and I really enjoyed this one. Yes, there are some weaknesses in some of the secondary characters, but it was really fun to read. I haven't read any of the previous Bachelor Chronicles, but after this one, I'd like to read the rest. I thought the dialog was done well and the villains were pretty good and the backstory good. The only major issue I had with it was there's a scene where Minerva is being seriously threatened and Langley doesn't really seem to react, not then, nor later. There are a lot of characters here from previous books and sometimes it's a bit difficult to follow the names and relationships. All the same, well worth reading. Funny, light, and good adventure and romance. The last widow of the Standons is happy. Darn it. She doesn't have any money but the other two widows have married so she's got her own house. Sort of. It's just been invaded by the former lovers (aka "Nannies") of Lord Langley. Unbeknownst to Minerva, Lord Langley is there as well. He is trying to get his things out of her house when he accidentally stumbles into her chamber. When the nannies (all of whom took care of Langley's daughters at various points in their life,) try to break into the bedroom, Langley thinks fast and grabs Minerva, pretending she is his fiancee. She goes along with it but sets up some rules. No kissing and no falling in love. She needs some protection of her own when an old flame who married her sister (but under Minerva's real name)returns to blackmail her.Lots of stories but enjoyable.
