The Lord I Left by Scarlett Peckham
I enjoyed this more than the previous 2 books in this series. There were times when I was full on cackling at the shenanigans. I did not like Henry in the previous book, so I was not convinced he was going to be a compelling MMC, but I was VERY wrong. He was complex. And Anne was a delight. I love it when the roles are reversed and he is the innocent and she is the experienced one and this was so well done. The only issue I had was with the ending because he's not titled or independently wealthy and we are led to believe that she will not be a governess at a whipping house now that they are wed, so what are they going to do for money? Yes, she is writing music for what's her name from book 2, but that can't be enough to live off of. So, the ending was too open ended for me. This series has gotten better as it has progressed.
