From the 2018 RITA Award-winning author!

Earl. War hero. Notorious rake. After the Battle of Waterloo, Eli Dawes was presumed dead - and would have happily stayed that way. He's no longer the reckless young man he once was and only half as pretty. All he wants is to hide away in his country home, where no one can see his scars. But when he tries to sneak into his old bedroom in the middle of the night, he's shocked to find someone already there.

Rose Hayward remembers Eli as the arrogant lord who helped her late fiancé betray her. Finding him stealing into her art studio doesn't correct her impression. Her only thought is to get him to leave immediately. Yet the tension between them is electric, and she can't help but be drawn to him. He might be back from the dead, but it's Rose who is suddenly feeling very, very much alive.

Critic reviews

"Wonderful! A charming, clever, and engaging storyteller not to be missed." (Sarah MacLean, New York Times best-selling author)

"Skillfully crafted with intriguing characters, this historical romance will appeal to fans of Mary Balogh." (Publishers Weekly)

"Where have you been all my life, Kelly Bowen? If Julia Quinn, Sarah MacLean, and Lisa Kleypas were to extract their writing DNA, mix it in a blender, and have a love child, Kelly Bowen would be it." (HeroesandHeartbreakers.com)

This 2nd book of the series was better than the first book, but not as good as the third. That said, I did like how the book dealt with deformities and less than perfect people as many of the HR novels portray.

Better than the Ist. Not as good as 3rd

A physically scarred hero and an emotionally/socially scarred (but badass) heroine? That's what I call a match made in heaven and exactly what we get in Eli and Rose! I LOVED how it is established very early on that Eli sees Rose as the one that got away, so we get a bit of second chance romance here too. Add to that a touch of enemies to lovers and Last Night with the Earl made me a happy camper. This one was a bit more emotionally taut than A Devil in the Night and that made the payoff to HEA that much more sweeter. It amazed me how Kelly Bowen portrayed Rose's issue in such a way that seemed historically accurate, yet so easily translated to current times. I also really enjoyed the connections to the previous book and the hints to the escalating drama that we might see in the next...

Interesting storyline. I enjoy following this family and seeing less than perfect people in the story. I also liked the cross-over with King. I would have liked to hear more about Ann and what happened to Duncan
