Find Me Love

Scandal Meets Love #2

by Dawn Brower

As a young girl Diana decided she liked fencing more than being a proper lady, but sometimes embracing the rules of society is a necessary evil. Fortuna’s Parlor gives her the opportunity to utilize her love of fencing, and ton balls are the perfect place to hold the clandestine matches.

Roguish behavior, gambling, and expensive brandy are Luther Wright, Earl of Northesk’s favorite vices. They each play a part in burying the demons that haunt him. One night everything changes and he is forced to question every decision he’s made.

After a chance encounter at one of Diana’s fencing matches Luther decides to court her. Her strong will and his need to protect her clash—only time will tell if they are able to find a way past their differences, and in turn, an enduring love.

#BennetSistersScale: Lydia - 🌹🌹 Very sweet and idealistic, but hurtles headlong toward its HEA without taking quite enough care over how this is accomplished.

Find Me Love, Scandal Meets Love Book 2, by Dawn Brower is a short and very sweet Regency novella about a young woman who longs for the freedom to follow her passion for fencing, and the tortured Earl who determines to protect her; from scandal, and even from herself if he must.

When I say that this story is sweet, I need to be clear; I don't only mean that it is a 'clean', traditional type of romance. This novella is Donny-Osmond-singing-Puppy-Love levels of sweetness, and if you have a single cynical bone in your body then you will struggle not to roll your eyes at it in places. If, however, you want to be immersed in a story where the lovers fall hard and fast and the declarations are as grand as the fanciest ballroom, then it's ideal escapism.

Diana's penchant for fencing was great, and I liked the fact that she helped run an all-female gaming hell. It would have been nice to have had this explored in more detail, especially alongside the risk that society Ladies like Diana, Katherine, and Mary would have been running by participating in such an establishment. Equally, I would have liked to know more about Luther's emotional turmoil, especially the grief surrounding his father's death. The consequences of the loss are explained but the darkness is never explored, and I think there is a richness to his character that is missing due to the story's brevity. I feel the same about Diana, whose dissatisfaction and cool relationship with her family is never really covered in enough detail for me to truly have a rounded sense of her.

The friendship Diana has with 'Gypsy' girl, Lulia, is problematic for reasons I will detail further in the full post on my blog.

There were quite a few issues with the general writing in this audiobook, which is always very noticeable in a novella because there is so little text for the mistakes to blend into. The writing generally lacks the elegance or refinement that is really needed in a Regency, as the formality of the language and customs really do show up every fault like wrinkles in silk. This, and the Americanisms and anachronisms, are also covered in greater length on the blog.

I did very much like the idea of Diana and Luther, as individuals and a couple, and I think that there is the potential to write them a compelling story. Sadly, I don't think that the execution of this novella really does them justice, and would like to see it expanded with more time and TLC. They're an interesting couple and could have a truly memorable romance if they were properly fleshed-out.

The narrator, Price Waldman, had a rich, rounded voice which was well suited to the period, but the clipped accent felt a little remote at times which - alongside the constant exposition - made it harder to get inside the characters' heads.

There were a few pronunciations which were rather distracting, as in British English there is no 'd' in "fighting", and we don't say "excited" or "invited" like an adorable Southern Belle at a debutante's ball. Lulia, too, has a very strange accent. Despite the language barrier, Waldman's tone is very relaxing and easy to listen to and I enjoyed his narration.

Overall, Find Me Love is a sweet story with a happy ending and a sprinkling of Regency references that help conjure up an image of a more elegant time. I wouldn't describe it as a true Regency, and it is not without its flaws, but it's a nice way to spend an evening's listening on a cold night. I would recommend it to those who are looking for a quick love-story with an unconventional heroine and a troubled hero.

I received an advance copy of this story for an honest review. I hate posting a bad review for an author that I typically like but...

Big fan of historical romance and a big fan of Dawn Brower here! Needless to say, unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of this story. While I did like that Diana wasn't the typical female of her time period and did what she wanted, I felt the romance aspect was forced. For example, neither main character seems to be all that friendly towards each other at the beginning of the story; it's more like they tolerate each other for those briefs scenes. Jump ahead six years, they run into each other, and suddenly he's in love with her. This was strange since he'd never wanted to marry prior and supposedly had only ever thought of Diana as a sister type. But suddenly he sobers up a degree and decides he wants to change his life, stop drinking. She seems to be the first female he runs into and BAM! It's love at first sight on his part. Although she constantly thinks negative things towards him, she plays hard to get. Why? Oh, that's right because he's blackmailing her. He definitely sounds like a keeper.

I wasn't feeling it. She gave him a week to woo her, the reader hears about their first date, time jumps ahead several days, and suddenly she's in love with him. What happened during those dates? We have no clue what else they did together and how he was able to change her feelings towards him, although she seemed to already be wanting him before their first date, yet hating him at the same time. Yeah...no... Not to mention the fact that he seems to be against everything she's interested in. Of course, at the end, when she finally declares her love for him, he states that as long as he's always involved in her extracurricular activities, he's all good. Controlling much? There was too much jumping around as well, yes, I get that this was a novella, but still. I didn't feel it was possible to actually connect with any of the characters in this story.

Anyways, while I've listened (audiobooks) to many stories by this author, I think this might be the first or second one that I've actually read as opposed to listening to. On that note, there were several mistakes I found throughout the story. Mistakes, specifically involving punctuation, making certain words capitalized when they should be lowercase or vice versa, forgetting words, or using the wrong words.

Questions/Comments:

What was with Lulia? She's a gypsy that decides to stay near Diana instead of traveling, as is her culture, with her family. Um...yeah, that was unbelievable!

"Her own family didn't acknowledge her." What's the story with that? I mean she's been in town or wherever for several years by herself (not counting her maid), and her parents don't care about her marrying?

How does one "slid" out of a room? "Diana slid out of the office," or "They slid into the library."

"Luther had learned over the years how to appear sober when he was completely foxed--he may have imbibed too much to accomplish that fete at the ball." So he can act sober when really drunk, yet he drank too much prior to going to the ball and can't act sober? That's a contradiction considering he should basically be able to act sober no matter how much alcohol he's consumed.

So, Lulia was changing into her fencing garb in the retiring room. But when Luther is following Diana, she doesn't actually go into the retiring room. Huh?

How did they think they wouldn't get caught, or better yet, how did they not get caught much sooner when they'd have a fencing match in someone's garden? Did all the gardens have mazes?

Diana is described as having plain blonde hair and light blue eyes. "Diana was average."

When did Luther meet Lady Mary Addington? He didn't talk to her at the ball when he ran into Diana, and the story states that he hadn't been to a ball in years. Yet, when he caught them fencing he automatically knew who she was.

Lulia telling Diana that she could tell Luther had been interested in her when she was sixteen, but Diana was just too innocent to notice, yeah...

Luther's friend suggests the theater. "He didn't quite understand what the theater had to do with anything." Seriously?

Luther was worried about Diana's reputation being ruined, yet had no problem walking her home at night, multiple times.

"Holton's mother and hers were twin sisters (so related) and they'd grown up as close as siblings." Ah...that's because they were sisters.

[Kathleen · Rating 3 out of 5]

Find Me Love was mostly fun and funny. It’s straightforward and (intentionally?) silly, very much like putting on a random rom-com when you want something light and uncomplicated. Regency era, mutual attraction, mild obstacles, a few chapters of delay so we can enjoy the ride. It does what it sets out to do.

That said, a few things pulled me out of the story.

First, it’s a personal pet peeve when authors use male and female instead of man and woman. It reminds me of doing bird counts. It reads like a biology report, this is an actual quote from the book: “There were no males in the area. He counted six females total.” Or worse, like the Ferengi from Star Trek with their leering, lingering “feeeemaaaale.” This habit sometimes shows up in fantasy when authors distinguish humans from other species (which I also find odd), but everyone here is human. Men and women would have worked just fine.

The “playing hard to get” trope also felt strange, especially by modern standards. The earl actively pursues the heroine, who insists she hates him, stomps her foot to be feisty, and yet privately fantasizes about him. At some point this century, we collectively had the no means no conversation, so the dynamic was more confusing than charming.

As an NCAA fencing athlete, I was particularly disappointed by how fencing was handled. It’s mentioned often but only vaguely, with no real technical detail. No distinct styles, no sense of who’s winning, no touches described. Fencing is a numbers-based sport: by the end of a bout, it’s very clear who won, yet the book treats it like a generic duel sport where outcomes are fuzzy.

There are also three distinct fencing disciplines: foil, épée, and sabre, with different rules. The book includes a foil and a rapier, but they aren’t treated differently at all, which suggests the author didn’t fully understand the very basics of the sport. Given that fencing is central to the heroine’s personality, this lack of research stands out. A quick Google search, or even a YouTube video, would show rules that have existed since the 1700s, well before the Regency era.

Terminology was also off. The book repeatedly uses fencing match, but if two people are fencing each other, it’s a bout. A match usually refers to team events in a tournament setting. The term sparring is used as well, which I’ve never heard in fencing; it should be practice bouts or free fencing.

Finally, I didn’t find the characters particularly developed. Their personalities felt thin, which made it harder to stay emotionally invested in their story.

Overall, Find Me Love is a light, easy read with some charm, but the shallow characterization and the mishandling of fencing, especially given its importance to the plot, kept it from being more engaging.

[Tracy Smith · Rating 2 out of 5]

Find Me Love is a fun romp with a very interesting premise. The heroine, Diana, grows up in a moderately well to do family. Her father's land neighbors the Earl of Northesk. She and our hero, Luther, basically grow up together.
Luther's father dies and he goes into a downward spiral. In the meantime, Diana matures and becomes a lovely woman. She also (for the time) is very independent. She befriends Lulia, a gypsy woman, and learns how to fence. Time passes and she and Lulia open a gambling hell just for women and women fencers. Luther sees Diana again and falls in love. Diana is not so sure. They agree on a fortnight of courting and he won't tell her father about her business. She agrees and trouble ensues.

Pros: Even though the concept is highly improbable for the time period, it was fun and refreshing to have women fencers. We do have to suspend disbelief but then again, we don't know everything about that time period do we??

Cons: My usual complaint. So, so many sentences ending incorrectly with prepositions. Or poor use of prepositions ex; "Diana scrunched her nose up" instead of "Diana scrunched up her nose".
Modern verbiage like "re-evaluate his life choices" or "limited timeframe". And 'time-frame' needed a hyphen. "be quiet" instead of "oh, do be quiet".
Just poor writing. ex: "Lady Diana had grown up in the years he'd been away. She was still a little girl in his eyes, and she would remain so". Two completely disparate ideas with nothing to join them.
Redundancy within the sentence.
Using 'fete' instead of 'feat'
Why would Diana not be 'normal'? I think a better word would be 'conventional'.
"Can I help you?" instead of "May I help you?" or even better, "How may I be of assistance?"
How did Luther know that Diana's nickname was Lady Di? He was never around her as a friend.
Diana was written as Lulia in one spot.
"Holton's mother and hers were twin sisters (so related) and they'd grown up as close as siblings." YA' THINK?!?? What does this sentence even mean?

Like many other readers, I very much dislike leaving a poor review. However, I just can't get past the poor technical writing and plot holes. It feels as if the writer is just churning out stories to get them published and there is NO editing. Or maybe the average reader doesn't care about proper writing technique, they just want a fast story to kill some time. Or maybe I'm too picky. I don't know. I just know it's very frustrating to see books of a low technical caliber being put out for sale and someone expecting them to be purchased.

Lady Fencer Meets Her Match

I'll admit that when they first started popping up in Regency romances, I didn't like the idea of female gaming hells or young ladies of the ton doing era-masculine activities like fencing or pugilism. While I'm still not wild about the pugilism, I've become more accustomed to and accepting of these concepts. The heroine at the heart of the story is deeply involved with the business of Fortuna's Parlor, a women-only gaming hell that also has bets on things like female fencing matches. The heroine herself is an advanced fencer, having been taught by a female gypsy years before. The book starts with a chapter five years before the story that forms the bulk of the book. The hero is newly returned to the area, the new heir after his father's passing. Even though both are quite young—she at 15 and he 21—they have a bond and a seemingly natural understanding of each other because they have known each other since they were children. He acknowledges to himself that she has become an attractive young lady but knows she is far too young for any serious interest … and he has far too much on his plate already. Fast forward five years, and he's become a rather dissolute lord, wallowing still in his father's death. Early on, however, he has an epiphany—which wasn't quite shown to be of such strength to be wholly believable—which makes him decide he needs to become the man his father would have wanted him to be. To this end, he decides it's time to find a wife and sets out nearly immediately for his first ton ball.

Of course, he meets the heroine again at this ball, makes some serious blunders, but quickly decides she's the one for him. The twists and turns of the plot are well done, and I won't detail them here any more than I have. The hero cleverly negotiates with the heroine to get her to consider his suit. He can certainly be charming when he wants to be, though he struggles with the independent, unconventional woman she has become. Their feelings and concerns seemed realistic and believable, making both sympathetic characters. This book has some fantastic secondary characters as well. I loved the heroine's besties, who at least twice in the book helped her figure out her own mind and heart. Will he be able to not only look beyond how she is decidedly different from most young ladies but appreciate her for it? Will she tailor her dreams for independence and consider him a welcome addition? You will have to listen to (or read) this delightful book to find out!

I received a promo code for this audiobook, but that did not affect my review.

The author brings jumps right into the romance as a lady tries her best to be a lady and a gentleman tries his best to court her. The two do not see eye to eye the lady wants to live, feel the thrills life brings, she so much wants to learn to fence, he so much wants to keep her safe. It is a fight against will one demanding marriage the other just wants to be left alone. The lady finds the gentleman to bossy and just what does he mean she can’t do this or that. Well she will show him, it isn’t like they have any attachments, and what does he mean he is marrying her, he must have lost his mind. The gentleman finds the lady to be to bold, seeking danger but man can she swing a sword.

I thought the narrator did a wonderful job on his character voices, as well as giving true emotion to them. It was very easy to know who was talking and what they were feeling. There are no repeating of words, no volume changes, and no breaks were taken that I could tell. It was a story I enjoyed and had trouble putting down. He made me believe what was happening as he took me on a journey of humor, anger and the thrill of romance. It was a very clear audio that I plan on listening to again.

The author really takes you back in time giving a thrilling listen with wonderful character that does battle as they find they can’t live without each other. It is well written and thought out. I truly enjoyed this story, I loved the humor and found myself laughing, chuckling along with a few hold your breath moments.

Diana has always lived next door to Luther Wright but he has never noticed her since she is younger and rather plain. When his father passes away he becomes the Earl of Northesk but he quickly becomes a rogue who drinks too much but one day he decides to sober up and attend a ball where he runs into his old neighbor Diana and she is more beautiful than he remembered. He follows her into the garden maze where she has arranged a fencing match between two women and he is shocked. Diana tries to get away from him but the man will not leave and he wants to court her and so she agrees for only a short period and then she expects him to go back to his old ways. Luther is steadfast in his pursuit of Daina and vows to never give up but when he catches her in a fencing match he is furious and walks away. Is it too late for Diana and Luther?

Quite an okay read

The plot is good - a clean romance I would have to say. I am a historical romance fan, and this is my first time reading from the author. I have to say that I felt as if there are some lapses within the story or its just that the story is too fast paced that it sometimes jumps from time to time without so much ado as to what happened in between. AS if there are some missing parts in the story. I'm a bit confused with some details in the story. How I wish the characters had more depth - especially the H and h romance. Maybe since this is not a full novel, that's why its a bit lacking. Maybe, its just me and I'm expecting a bit too much - but I think that I have to have more in this story.

This is sweet, romantic and interesting. Luther is determined, bold, unassuming and protective. Diana is independent, bold, stubborn and strong. Diana has been in love with Luther for years, but knew that she was too plain to catch his eye. Luther had always thought of Diana as a pesky child, until he saw her at a ball one night. Luther decided then and there that he was going to marry her, he just needed to convince her. She had plans of her own, ones she knew Luther would not approve of, but he unfortunately found out about, and blackmailed her into courtship with. They both have strong personalities, but love is stronger.

Another delightful book by Ms. Brower!
I always enjoy a strong heroine who is smart, beautiful and talented. This one is especially interesting as Diana has trained for many years with her gypsy friend as a fencer. Her choice of arranging fencing matches with women is unique.
Luther is a rogue. He grew up near Diana but never considered her a love interest. He was too busy drinking and enjoying his rakish ways. Sometimes, love is closer than one thinks if only they take the time to look around.
This is well written and is just the right length for an afternoon read. I enjoyed it!
I received an ARC of this book. The choice to read and review it was mine.

Lady Diana was quite an unconventional lady for her time. Her great love was fencing, although she did sometimes wonder if she would find a man she could love and who could accept her as she was. Luther Wright, Earl of Northesk had decided to change his disreputable ways and become a man his father would be proud of. He had decided to look for a wife. This was a sweet romance where Luther needed to show Diana he was worthy of her love. There were some interesting secondary characters as well.

Find Me Love by Dawn Brower is a historical romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Price Waldman. This is the second book in the Scandal meets Love Series that can be read as a stand-alone.

I absolutely love Dawn’s books! They are a slow burning romance that just leaves you with a smile by the end. I cannot wait to dive into the next book in the series If It’s Love.

Price did a great job on the narration. I loved his accent it was perfect for Luther. I look forward to listening to more of his projects in the future.

I would recommend this book to anyone who loves historical romance or slow burn romances.

Another fun addition to Dawn Brower's collection. When childhood friends are all grown up can they find love and make the marriage that their parents had always wanted?
Luther, the Earl of Northesk seems to always be trying to look out for and protect his neighbor Lady Diana. Unfortunately, she is independent enough to not want/meed protecting. This causes some friction between them but in the end can't keep them apart.
This is a quick fun read and a good Happily Ever After.

I thoroughly enjoyed this Regency romance with great characters, romance and intrigue. They were from neighboring estates, but he was several years older. They saw each other when she was 16, but didn't see each other again for 6 years. He had become a rogue, but decided to change and marry. He saw her at a ball and was determined to win her. She was into things he wasn't fond of, but the ending was great. I look forward to reading the book about Lilia. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy from Booksprout.

If you get a chance to hear the audio version, you'll enjoy it and you'll like the guy whose telling it. It had fun, humor and a lot of feistiness. You'll enjoy all the characters and you hope for the best between Luther Wright, The Earl of Northesk and Diana and hope they eventually get together. Their best friends deserve a story or two themselves. Since some of them are very interesting. So if you ever get a chance check it out and enjoy. You'll be glad you did.

Diana has been in love with her neighbor Luther for years even though he didn't notice her until recently when he decided Diana is the one he wants to court and marry. But in the years since he last saw her, she has made a life for herself with her ladies club Fortuna’s Parlor and fencing matches. I didn't like that he was judgmental about women fencing and she was willing to give it up to be with him. They both have to overcome their pride and prejudices to find happiness together.

[Lisa H · Rating 4 out of 5]

Diana is mad about fencing and her club of lady fencers. She’s 22 and not quite on the shelf.

Luther is 5 years older than Diana. He’s inherited the earldom when he was 21 and has spent the past six years drinking himself into oblivion mourning his dad (a weak excuse in my opinion).

Luthier courts Diana and it’s all rather sweet. A tinge of conflict.
