West End Earl

West End Earl


Misfits of Mayfair, Book 2

by Bethany Bennett


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


Secret identities, boys who are girls, friends becoming lovers; this book was a tour de force! 


Calvin, the Earl of Carlyle has become dependant on his land steward and friend, Adam Hadriwck. These two are inseperabale, so of course when Adam gets attacked after a night out with the Earl and his friends, Calvin is the first to arrive and help him recover… only to discover after 2 years of friendship and working together that Adam is not a he, but a she… and now that he’s looking, what a she she is!


Ophelia has been masquerading as deceased twin, Adam for 11 years. She is so close to reaching her majority and finally getting her inheritance and being rid of her reprehensible uncle forever… too bad that Calvin has discovered her true self and now all her lusty thoughts are becoming a reality as they explore their attraction!


Oh my! I haven’t read a good gender surprise like this in a ling time! I loved how Calvin respects her choices after discovery and they are able to act on their interest on each other. Calvin was my kind of hero. I am a sucker for a fixer and as he tries to fix all his families problems, only ends up making ones for himself! Ophelia’s strength and determination was not to be missed! She wowed me in her perseverance and her willingness to do what needs to be done… even when it wasn’t easy.


This had everything I’m looking for in a good historical romance!



West End Earl  by Bethany Bennett is scheduled to release June 29th, 2021.
