In Bed with the Earl

Lost Lords of London, Book 1
by Christi Caldwell

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

Get yourself ready for a wet and wild adventure! You are about to experience lifestyles for the rich and tosher! Be warned, the life of a tosher is not for the faint of heart. If the smell of London’s sewers doesn’t get you, then you risk your life from falling brick, raging waters and ravenous hordes of rats. All in the name of that sweet, sweet tosh- underground lost treasure!

This story was great, from the fascinating perspective of the lost Earl turned tosher for survival on the streets, to the strong female reporter risking everything for her family. Christi weaves together the characters and their emotional development so seamlessly, you can’t help but be swept away in their tale. I loved how this story was told by the grittier side of London by characters who know strife. Their hardships and their successes were both deeply moving.

I will definitely be on the lookout for the next lost lord in Christi’s Lost Lords of London, but I highly recommend you check out this before the nest lord is found!

In Bed with the Earl by Christi Caldwell is scheduled to release March 17th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Montlake Romance through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
