The dare is to not fall in love with not only the characters, but the author as well. Adventure on the high seas spills over to dry land with a Pirate Earl and an amateur physician. Earl Interrupted is an active look at a dangerous love affair that ignites the heart and inspires the soul. Any tale that inspires women to be courageous in not only matters of the heart, but following their dreams is A - okay with me. Robert and Emma steam up the pages of this action packed thrill ride.

Earl Interrupted is second in Amanda Forester ‘s The Daring Marriages series but reads perfectly as a stand-alone. The Earl aka Dare is a privateer, not be confused with a pirate. He does this line of work because he and his twin sister Lady Katherine became orphaned at a young age and someone stole their family’s wealth. Dare has become wealthy through privateering and now wants to find a wife.

Enter Emma St. James, who learned medicine through her father who was a physician. Now that Emma is about to turn 18, the wealth her dad left her will become her own.

She’s been living with her step-brother and step-mother since his death. Turns out the step-mom and step-brother have plans on taking Emma’s inheritance by making her marry her step-brother. Emma refuses and they resort to plan B, send her to the insane asylum and take her inheritance anyway. So Emma runs away to America to marry a man she has never even met, which is better than marrying her step-brother or being committed. On her trip, she meets Dare. He has been shot after stopping his sister’s kidnappers and he helps Emma as well. Given what Emma learned from her father she is able to save him. Dare is in love at first sight. There are people now after these two since Dare saved his sister plus Emma. And Emma is on the run from her step-brother. As these two are involved in a cat and mouse chase, love begins to blossom on the high seas of course.

This was fun historical romance and Emma and Dare were a cute couple. I enjoyed it. Dare right off the bat wants to marry Emma but he also doesn’t want her in any danger since people are out to kill him. So he is torn. He is nervous around her and struggles to find the right words which I thought was endearing. Emma is shy and innocent since she lived the sheltered life, but she is smart and brave and I liked that she’s pretty much a doctor.

"Dare stared at her with his dark eyes, full of an emotion that was hard to name.”-Earl Interrupted

A fun read!

The events of this one take place somewhat concurrently with the ones from book one in the series ( If the Earl Only Knew ) but as each is focused on a different twin (Robert "Dare" in this one and Kate in the other) they could also work as standalones. To be honest, I've forgotten most of the details of the first book already, so it was pretty much as if I was starting here anyway--and I did just fine ;)

Emma and Dare's story is a sweet romance with more than a touch of danger thrown in. It was a bit frustrating at times--much of their issues could have been resolved with frank discussions--but overall it was a lot of fun to read, and the ending was more than satisfying. There is a touch of religion here that I wasn't quite expecting--Emma finds a lot of comfort in her faith and occasionally quotes scripture and prays--it's not overwhelming, but if that bothers you just be warned.

Can't wait to see where Ms. Forester will go next!

Rating: 4 stars / B+

Highwaymen and pirates!

Quite an unexpected Regency romance with a pirate Lord and a young heiress fleeing a nasty step relatives. I quite enjoyed it even though it took me so long to read.
Emma St. James is no shrinking violet and it seems her undeterred faith and her willingness to take action keeps her one step ahead of a nasty fate.
Dare, Captain Robert Ashton, Earl of Darington, is a man used to action and mincing about drawing rooms looking for a suitable wife is some thing he's not suited to. Glowering and stoney silences are more his forté in these gruelling exercises. All of course add to his reputation as the Pirate Earl.
'As a child, Emma had dreamed of her wedding. What little girl did not?' Emma's prospects now seem so different as she sets forth to be a bride to an unknown grandson of a Lord in America. It's either this, marriage to her step brother, or an asylum.
As fate would have it Emma's plans take a hiatus when she and Dare meet on a dark and stormy night (well not quite!), but Dare does rescue Emma from a carriage accident and capture by brigands. The latter it turns out are no accident!
The adventures go on from here. Emma armed with her faith and resolve, Dare with his persistence and earned reputation. The dance between the two is excruciatingly sweet in a nice way. 'Earl Interrupted' is a fitting title. Because he is, constantly!
