There was so much I loved about this book, but I really couldn’t stand Gile’s sister, who just drove me crazy for the entire book. Yasmin and Giles have to learn to speak to one another about their fears and dreams. OPINION: This book is so much more serious than the initial setup appeared to portend. Giles is too stuffy and judgemental, yet Yasmin finds that Giles constantly exceeds her expectations. Yasmin has a past and is determined to be strong in the face of the disapproval of British society and Giles. That makes her ineligible for consideration as his countess, but he can’t stop wanting to spend time with her. Yasmin is everything he could want in a wife, except that her dress and her behavior, and her history are not what he sees as proper. THE STORY: Giles Renwick, Earl of Lilford, is undone by Lady Yasmin Régnier. This book manages to be sweet and hot at the same time. I loved how Giles’s love for Yasmin transforms him and how he struggles with his societal expectations. The Reluctant Countess (Would-Be Wallflowers, #2) by Eloisa JamesįINAL DECISION: I enjoyed this book because Yasmin is so resilient, and I loved how she stands up for herself despite the approbation of society and even Giles at times.
