Ted Lasso meets Bridgerton for a 19th century spin on The Hangover in USA Today bestselling author Jenny Holiday’s laugh-out-loud bromantic comedy featuring three Regency-era Earls on their annual trip – ride-or-die buddies offering one another unconditional support in everything from Lady problems to family woes - especially when this trip is crashed by one earl’s pen pal. The complicated fallout from his alter ego being exposed may just be the most challenging problem the boys have to solve yet!
From the author of CANADIAN BOYFRIEND, the perfect romp for fans of Evie Dunmore, India Holton, Virginia Heath, Manda Collins, and Suzanne Allain!
An annual earls’ trip should provide an escape from a gentleman’s cares, but in this refreshingly modern Regency-era series, three handsome BFFs find that wherever they go, romantic complications follow . . . When not writing, poet Edward Astley, Viscount Featherfinch, spends his time fending off the young ladies of the ton—and some of its young men—and avoiding his cruel father. As heir to the earldom, Edward knows he must marry someday. Alas, he is already hopelessly in love with someone. Hopeless because not only is Miss Julianna Evans not a member of the aristocracy, she is employed. She is a magazine editor—the only one to publish his work. Also, in all their years of increasingly personal correspondence, they’ve never met.
Also, she thinks he’s a woman. Named Euphemia.
Julianna is baffled. How can her soul mate not want to meet? Could it be that Euphemia is not the simple country girl she claims to be? Perhaps she’s wealthy. After all, she’s never cashed any of the bank drafts Julianna has sent. Perhaps Euphemia simply doesn’t want rank to come between them. Well, no more. Having extracted the details of a trip Euphemia is planning, Julianna squanders her meager savings and surprises her at the scene.
He is very, very surprised. As is she.
Now the two will have to decide what is true, what is not, and whether the truest thing of all—love—just might be worth an earldom . . .
Praise for Earls Trip
“Readers who adore the banter between the “Bridgerton” brothers will want to grab “Earls Trip…Holiday, a veteran contemporary romance author, brings her trademark humor to her first historical novel.”—The Washington Post
"One of the best historical romances I've read in years. I truly felt like the characters were falling in love." —Julia Quinn, bestselling author of the Bridgerton novels
"Earls Trip is a romantic, funny, entirely charming romp. Holiday perfectly straddles the line between a historical setting and modern sensibilities, and the result is the most fun I’ve had reading a book in months. This was a breath of fresh air, and I will be first in line to read the next book in the series." —Martha Waters, author of To Have and To Hoax "Earl's Trip is great fun. An effervescent historical romcom that spotlights male friendship alongside an appealing romance, it's sure to appeal to Bridgerton fans and anyone looking for a lovely and diverting read. Prepare to be entertained!" —India Holton, International Bestselling Author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels “Earls Trip is as whimsical as the title suggests. It follows three earls whose annual boys’ trip becomes intercepted by two sisters. The rest is a delightful rom for anyone who can’t get enough of Bridgerton/Queen Charlotte or a period piece such as Downton Abbey.”—Buzzfeed “Humor abounds and the pages turn at a brisk clip. It’s a delightful rom.”—Publishers Weekly “The examination of friendships, familial bonds, and, of course, romantic relationships drives the tale, and it works because the characters are so charming and complex. There’s plenty of humor sprinkled in, keeping the tone light and fun. A breezy and amusing love story that showcases the importance of friendship.”—Kirkus Reviews “The hook is three friends, all earls or in line to become earls, who take an annual trip dedicated to relaxation, favorite pursuits, and their devotion to and support for one another…Holiday’s latest deftly sets up a series that shows potential.”—Library Journal
