Persuading Lady Penelope (A Lost Lords Story): An InstaLove Regency Historical Romance Novella Kindle Edition

From Award Winning Author Cassandra Dean comes a short novella set in her Lost Lords world where a never-serious lord falls fast and hard for a sceptical lady and must persuade her his love is true...

After years out of Society, Lady Penelope Masterton is eager to enjoy her friend’s house party. Ever the wallflower, she never expects to attract any attention, especially not the attention of the Earl Wainwright. Everyone says he’s an inconstant flirt, that no lady has ever held his regard for longer than a season, so why, then, does the roguishly handsome earl claim he wants her for his wife?

Alastair, Earl Wainwright, thought he would never find his person, the one he would love and cherish above all others, and he certainly never expected to find her at Lady Stayne’s house party. His first sight of Lady Penelope takes his breath and then his heart, but a reputation for inconstancy makes it she doesn’t believe his suit is true.

Now, Wainwright is desperate to do everything he can to convince Penelope he is worth taking a chance…and that a never-serious rogue can be deadly serious about persuading his lady.

Persuading Lady Penelope is a captivating regency romance novella set in the Lost Lords world. Perfect for fans of Eloisa James, Christi Caldwell and Julia Quinn: With swoon-worthy heroes, strong heroines, and a happily ever after, you'll love this enchanting series from award-winning author Cassandra Dean.

What a delightful short story! I found myself totally drawn into Wainwright Penelope’s encounter at a house party. Their two characters seemed so real and authentic. It was so intriguing watching Wainwright, a rogue, who is a highly regarded flirt who keeps things light and easy and appeals to many women, rethink how to appeal to a specific woman. Penelope is single lady beyond her first blush, recovering from an extended illness and trying hard to hold herself apart from the attention she is garnering from Wainwright, due to gossip. Ms Dean does a masterful job of unraveling the distrust and early bungling by Wainwright that leads to a delightful and expected HEA.

4.0 out of 5 stars PERSUADING LADY PENELOPE by Cassandra Dean (A Lost Lords Short Story)
Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2021

Setting: England, 1818

PERSUADING LADY PENELOPE was my first experience with Ms. Dean's writing and I really liked her style. This was a very romantic story even if it was short and only took me about an hour to read. I'm generally not a fan of insta-love either but I do adore a hero who falls head over heels for his lady, which was Alastair to a tee. Penelope herself was super sweet and I actually thought these two made a perfect couple. I liked seeing them slowly get to know each other and just really enjoyed this little tale from beginning to end.

I'd also like to note that although this appears to be part of a series I never felt like I was missing anything and can easily be read as a standalone. It's also a clean romance with just a kissing scene at the very end. There was one use of the "f" word however and I wish the author would have told us what illness Penelope had only recently recovered from. Overall it was still an enjoyable and truly lovely romance though and one that touched me emotionally. I'm honestly so glad I read it and look forward to more by this author =)

Ages: Penelope (27) Alastair (31)

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice clean read
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2021
This was a sweet romantic story about lord Wainwright and Penelope. It was a shorter story but definitely complete in that I found no gaps or questions unanswered at the conclusion. That’s important to me, as I have read books (even longer books) that seem to leave out details or leave questions unanswered. This book starts out showing how they meet and how their reach their happy romantic end after overcoming some misunderstandings between themselves. There are many times a nice shorter story can be enjoyable in a world that can sometimes keep us very busy. I do enjoy this author’s books as they have not disappointed me yet

Enjoyable tale - is a standalone though part of a series.

The H sees the h for the first time and from a distance. Realizes at that moment she is his person, that was hard to swallow for me. Doesn't even see if her voice would break glass? I liked the h but she seemed to have a personality change from when she first met the H. She could hardly speak and gets up and leaves him standing there. The next day they meet, she initiates the conversation and talks and talks.

The h/H go off by themselves all the time and there is no mention of it. I realize this is a novella but the character's never seemed fleshed out. The h has been sick, for perhaps years. No idea exactly what was wrong with her other than breathing. How did she get better?

This is a clean story with only a few kisses. I did enjoy the getting to know each other but not in depth.

No cheating, no cliffhanger, ends at 85% mark on my e-reader, romance for him at lightening speed and clean.
I received an early copy. All opinions are my own and freely given. (ljb)

I thoroughly enjoyed this very short Regency romance with great characters, romance and if course a HEA. He was known as a flirt and being inconstant. She had been sick and out of society for years. They met at a house party. The ending was great. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy
