“Seducing an Heiress on a Train” (nook) was a captivating story which I would have rated as 6 stars if I could have. Lauren Smith’s stories are swoon worthy and I have read several. I just wish that they were a little longer and more intense.
American Heiress Rayne Egerton wants to marry a man who loves her and not her money. Roguish Oliver, Viscount Conway, desperately needs money to save his family’s estate from debt collectors he needs to wed an heiress. A Christmas train rides turns into an alluring love story when Rayne find herself intrigued by devilishly handsome Viscount Oliver. Maybe her Christmas will be one to remember when she lets her guards down and finds the unexpected passion and love on the train. Can Oliver when her heart, will he fall in love with her and save his family’s estate. I loved this excellent story and I voluntarily wrote a review.
“I wish we could have met under different circumstances.” The man cupped her chin and leaned down, feathering his lips over hers with one last ghost of a kiss.” Sigh. Oh yes, heavy sigh.
Magical. A meeting in the library at a ball by chance. Or was it?
Rayne Egerton was visiting from America with her father for him to conduct some business in England. Of course she had been talked down to by an atrocious girl so she had taken refuge. It seemed someone else had too as Oliver, Viscount Conway entered as well. Of course neither knew the other’s name but there was an undeniable instant attraction and they shared a kiss.
But Oliver was desperate and needed a heiress. When he learned from his sister that Rayne was one, he could not believe it! Plus she was going to Lord Fraiser’s house party that he and his family were attending and she was taking the train. How hard could it be? Well it may not be that smooth a ride at times!
My heart melted at this wonderful romance and I loved Oliver for trying to do the right thing for his family. Take the journey with these two amazing characters that Lauren Smith has brought to life with her amazing story telling, and prepare to be enchanted…
PS I cannot wait to hear some of the other character’s stories!!
Oliver, Viscount Conway, has a month to save his family’s estate before the bank forecloses, and he knows just what to do – marry an heiress. He decides to propose to his neighbour Lady Adelaide daughter of the Earl of Berwick but he finds he can’t & escapes to the library where he meets an American young woman & there’s an immediate attraction. He learns from his sister that she’s an American heiress & is spending Christmas at the same house party as the Conway family. The woman swears she won’t marry, especially a fortune hunter. Oliver must win her for his bride at any cost, even if it means compromising the lady on a train and stealing her heart.

Another lovely book from the author. This one is very much love at first sight but he’s hiding the truth & she won’t entertain a fortune hunter so things are bound to go pear shaped. The pace is very good & I read it in well under a day. The characters have plenty of depth & are very likeable. It takes a caring brother to open Oliver’s eyes as to what he should do, I do so hope Everett has his story. I also loved how they are descendants of Godric & Emily. Another page turning enthralling read
My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read
