His hilariously crazy and much beloved grandmother is threatening to sell off his property if he doesn't marry soon. The decadent Earl of Rothbury is in a similarly tight spot. Very creepy, as in liking young girls creepy. If she doesn't, she'll be forced to marry a very creepy old friend of her family. She has one last season to find a husband. Charlotte is left broken hearted and alone. Only Lord Tristan DOESN'T choose her as his bride. If you've read the first novel, Charlotte, To Wed A Wicked Earl's heroine, is the friend fancying herself in love with Lord Tristan, the bride seeking noble.

To Wed A Wicked Earl is the follow up to Olivia Parker's delicious debut novel At The Bride Hunt Ball. I was thrilled to find it in the bookstores. I've been waiting for this novel for so long (okay, only a little over a year but it feels like so long) that I almost forgot about it.

I laughed out loud even though I had had an inkling of suspicion about the revelation towards the end of the book anyway. The last line of the epilogue was just great. The ending was nice and wasn't rushed like some historical romances I've read. The following scene with the dinner rolls was fun too. One of my favorite scenes is where Charlotte tells Rothington that she told her mother he was just like Uncle Herbert (you'll have to read to find out why) and that's why her mother changed her attitude towards him. The heroine was smart with the perfect amount of sarcasm, cheekiness, and a hint of ditziness blended together. I liked how Parker had the hero be both a take charge seducer and a lovesick gentleman.

It was full of humor, heated stares, a couple of instances of failing to tell the whole truth, and of course a bunch of wicked thoughts. I actually forgot he was an earl as the story wasn't so much about his (or her) status. The story started out bit slow and the hero's attitude in the first chapter was a bit confusing, but once Charlotte and the Earl of Rothbury's, or Rothbury as he is called throughout the book, 'friendship' got going it was a delightful read. (Read the product description to find out more) It was worth the $6.99 plus tax I paid for it. The title caught my eye and when I read the description it sounded really good so I bought it. It's the first eBook as well as the first Olivia Parker novel I've read.
