The Other Countess review by CDi
Profile Picture
CDi

Four years previous William Lacey, the new, young, and penniless Earl of Dorset, was kicking Lady Eleanor Rodriguez, Countess of San Jaime, (also known as Ellie) out of his house after her father, ruined the Lacey family's name and fortune. Now, in the year 1582, the two meet again on different circumstances at the Queen Elizabeth's court. The Earl seems quite enchanted with Ellie quick wit and exotic looks, not recognizing her for the girl he kicked out so many years before. If only he could find a bride with the money he needs to bring his family's home to its former glory.
