An Unexpected Earl is an overall enjoyable read. Brandon and Amelia's love story was so sweet. Their paths cross in a masquerade ball after 12 years apart. Their chemistry sizzles as a mystery unfolds, reluctantly forcing them to come together in order to solve it.

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC for my honest review.

A great romance complete with a well developed action/mystery plot!

The friends to lovers/long lost hero tropes are woven in a delightfully sweet (and often HOT!) romance while the action unfolds. Without giving too much away, the mystery (or mysteries as the case may be) moves along well, with attention to detail and a plausible outcome. This book combines a bit of cozy mystery feel with a touch of Bond-style heroes.

If you are looking for a historical romance with just a bit more, this should be on your TBR list.

Amazing . A love like Brandon & Amelias is wonderful . After 12 years they find each other again under difficult circumstances . An evil brother and a group named Scepter .

An enjoyable read by Ms. Harrington, which brings together love, blackmail, and deception. Amelia and Brandon have known each other since they were children, sharing many adventures and were ready to take it to the next level where they were cruelly torn apart. Years later both changed, both with secrets, but their love for each other still remains. Amelia has been under the thumb of men for too long, being manipulated and making her feel guilty for her decisions. Brandon is now an earl, but works with an organization that is investigating Specter and a blackmailer, which brings him back to the woman he loved and lost, Amelia. Both have their own agendas, which forces their paths to cross and reluctantly work together to stop Scepter. Secrets threaten to break them apart, but will the love they have always had for each other be able to bring them back together?
