Ten Ways To Be Adored When Landing A Lord (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

Bintang 2.5.Love by Numbers #2.Agak membosankan, alurnya lambat, ketakutan akan terbongkarnya rahasia yang disimpan Lady Isabel saja yang menjadi fokus cerita dari awal sampai akhir. Dan pelajaran untuk mendapatkan bujangan yang dinginkan yang dimuat majalah"Pearls and Pelisses" terkesan dipaksakan. Menurutku Isabel dan Nicholas malah persatukan oleh alam. Pertama dengan turunnya perintah dari Duke of Leighton dan kemudian keinginan Isabel menjual koleksinya, dan akhirnya hujan yang tak berhenti dipedessan Yorkshire yang membuat Nicholas terjebak dan bermalam di Townsend Park. Tapi interaksi tokoh pria dan wanitanya dan obrolan obrolan lain dengan beberapa karakter, serta tingkah laku mereka cukup menggugah diriku: panas dingin, kadang tersenyum sendiri dan tertawa lepas karena rahasia yang sudah ketahuan dari awal dianggap baru saja terbongkar.Nicholas St. John bujangan tampan paling diminati dan paling memenuhi syarat untuk dijadikan pasangan hidup. Karena kepopulerannya itu Nick menyambar kesempatan yang diulurkan oleh Duke of Leighton untuk mencari adik perempuannya yang menghilang.Dipedesaan Yorkshire, Nick bertemu Lady Isabela Townsend, kakak seorang earl muda berusia 10 tahun, Reddich. Isabela meminta Nick menaksir koleksi patung yang dimilikinya untuk dijual agar hasilnya dapat membiayai seluruh keperluan estate dan "tanggungan" Earl of Reddich yang menjadi rahasia Townsend Park. Isabel berusaha keras menutupi rahasia yang ada dirumahnya agar tidak ketahuan selama Nick dan temannya Rock berada disana.Apa rahasia yang ditutupi oleh Isabel dan mengapa adik sang duke, Georgoana ada di Townsend Park? Apa yang terjadi jika Nick yang pernah ditinggal ibunya saat berusia 10 tahun dan pernah dikhianati oleh wanita yang dicintainya jatuh cinta pada Isabel yang memiliki masa kecil yang tak kalah menyedihkan dari Nick; seorang gadis kecil yang sendirian dan tak diinginkan ayah dan ibunya? Dan ketika Isabel terlambat menyadari perasaan cintanya pada Nick, apa yang harus dilakukannya untuk meraih kembali cinta yang pernah ia tolak? Cobalah untuk tahu sendiri dengan membaca buku ini. I really liked this one. More than the last one. I'm giving it 4.5 stars. I rounded up because I figured that's the nice thing to do. I adore the characters in this book. All of them. Nick and Rock are just my type of guy - confident, strong, intelligent, kind, well-traveled. I adore him and his flawed past. I think his heroine is perfect for him but I really enjoy how strong and simultaneously in need she is and also flawed like the rest of us. I like the story to the book although I feel like something is missing in between Nick starting his journey and ending up at the house. I couldn't say what though. And I really wanted to be there when she met the sisters but that's just me I guess. I mean it was her first time to London!Here is where I dock the half a point (I rate on entertainment alone)- some of the phrasing reduces the readability for me in that there are several unusual turns of phrase that are used multiple times and it was annoying to read for a second or third time. I think just some simple editing would have caught those. Examples would be him catching her touching her hair and realizing for the first time it was a nervous habit... at least twice. The phrase (and I paraphrase here but you get my drift) "What she lacks in experience she made up for with enthusiasm". The first time I read this in the last book I was like - "ok, I get it" and this time I just thought "really? It's the same phrasing." I mean I know the brothers are twins and really possibly do have identical thoughts but I didn't catch the drift that it was intentional.Finally - maybe 2 too many sex scenes. Or... something. The one out by the stone ruins kind of annoyed me.
