Synopsis: Bold. Beautiful. Beguiling.
It’s been over a year since Emma Clark’s no-good husband left on an expedition. The Countess of Dearborn has played the abandoned wife, but people are beginning to presume the earl is dead, which doesn't suit Emma at all. Emma likes being head of household in Albert’s absence and does her best to keep his family believing he is alive and well. She’s thirty years old and finally having some fun. If the earl is in fact dead, his family is waiting in the wings to swoop in and throw Emma out, leaving her destitute.
Then along comes Luka Olivien, the Weslorian Earl of Marlaine. He’s traveled all the way from Egypt, duty bound to return to the countess her deceased husband’s precious pocket watch—only to discover she doesn’t know he’s dead… Or does she? It’s hard to tell. Luka catches glimpses of the desperate vulnerability beneath the party girl exterior and can’t help being drawn into the beguiling countess’s ruse. (Synopsis from Goodreads)

My Thoughts: There are times when I just crave a good, ol' historical romance and An Inconvenient Earl has filled that desire. Julia London is a historical romance author who I recognize, and I like her books.
This one was a lot of fun. I really liked the premise of it. It was a good time seeing how Emma was going to keep living her life by keeping the public thinking her husband was still alive. This one just had the kind of premise that makes reading historicals so fun.
If you're looking for a historical romance to read, I'd add this one to your list.
