TITLE: Ten Ways to Be Adored When Landing a LordAUTHOR: Sarah MacLeanSERIES: Love by Numbers, Book 2SETTING: Late Georgian (post-Regency), YorkshireTHEMES/TROPES: secluded country heroine, impoverished estate, crossdressingOVERVIEW:Lady Isabel Townsend has spent her life on her father’s estate in Yorkshire, looking after her brother, secretly taking in women in need, and trying to hold everything together in the face of her father’s gambling and abandonment. When she gets news that her father has died, her building anxieties about finances and safety become more urgent, and while many members of her male-dressed female household think marriage is her best route, Isabel decides to seek an expert to help her sell her large, valuable collection of marbles.Enter Lord Nicholas St. John, antiquities expert and (more notably to the women of Isabel’s household) number one on the list of London’s Lords to Land. Unbeknownst to most, Nick is also a legendary tracker, having honed his skills throughout Europe and Asia, and he has taken up the mantle once again—as much to escape the ladies of London as to help his friend whose sister has run away. When Nick takes a break from his search to value Isabel’s marbles, it’s clear that something more is happening in the household, and he’s determined to unravel the mysteries surrounding the beautiful young woman and her home.PROS:I’m a sucker for secondary romances, so my very favorite thing about his book was the romance between Isabel’s cousin, Lara, and Nick’s friend, Rock. They had the more straightforward kind of romance that usually falls in the background, but Lara is so sweet and Rock is so funny, and there is a touch of conflict because Rock is Turkish.As for the main story, MacLean excels at both fresh plot concepts and strong heroines. Isabel’s mission to help women with nowhere else to go and her willingness to take on a wide variety of responsibilities in order to care for her household form a character who is confident and competent and a little fragile after so many years of being the person who holds it together for everyone else. The other women in Isabel’s household and her little brother are also delightful, and the love and camaraderie among them makes a heartwarming backdrop for Isabel’s troubles.The secret of the all-female household made a good plot concept, giving Isabel a reason for both her strength and fears, motivating Nick to delve further into the secrets of the household, and keeping a barrier of secrecy between the two as the romance develops.CONS:While both Isabel and Nick’s characters are well-rounded, I didn’t feel a lot of chemistry in the romance, which I attribute largely to inconsistencies in the portrayals of their characters. Nick is supposed to be pretty easygoing, as displayed in earlier parts of this book and in the previous book in the series, but he acts very imperious with Isabel through a lot of the book, which made it feel like his twin brother, the hero of the previous book, was copied and pasted into this story. I get the idea of people acting differently when they’re confused or scared or in love, but a laid-back guy turning so autocratic just didn’t feel true. I had a similar issue with Isabel, to a lesser extent. She’s so markedly stubborn and strong that her moments of diffidence and awkwardness seem off, though it’s more understandable for her as a woman who has never dealt much with men, never mind attraction and sex.There’s a good bit of improper behavior (even outside of the sexual stuff), like the whole cross-dressing staff and Isabel dressing in breeches and doing manual labor, which works well for the characters and situation, but I wish there could have been some context to make the lack of propriety feel like more of a risk. Because the book is set almost entirely on the isolated country estate, it lacks the thrill of bad behavior that could have consequences—there’s nobody around who cares if anybody in misbehaving.RATINGS:Writing: 5/5 MacLean’s consistently great writing.Characters: 4/5 Well-rounded, a touch inconsistent.Plot: 5/5 Good concept and execution.Setting: 4/5 Limited historical detail on the unorthodox estate.Romance: 3/5 Lack of chemistry.Sexiness: 4/5 Good but nothing impressive.Humor: 4/5 A sprinkling of funny dialogue.Average: 4.14 Great Plot Concept, Lacking ChemistryOTHER INFO:This is the second in the Love by Number series, the other two books starring Nick’s twin brother and younger half-sister. This book introduces the hero of the third book, the Duke of Leighton, who only appeared very briefly in the first book of the series. This book also introduces the Duke’s sister, Lady Georgiana, who eventually gets her own story in the fourth and final book of MacLean’s Rules of Scoundrels series. After loving the first book in this series, ‘Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake’, I found this follow up to be a bit of a letdown in several ways. That’s not to say I did not enjoy ‘Ten Ways to be Adored When Landing a Lord’ but I found that it lacked the fun, humour and smoldering passion of Book 1. If you enjoyed the first book, I suggest you do give this one a chance as a lot of the characters make appearances and it is a good stepping stone to the third novel, ‘Eleven Scandals to Start to Win a Duke's Heart’.‘Ten Ways to be Adored When Landing a Lord’ is the second novel of the Love by Numbers series by Sarah MacLean and revolves around Lady Isabel Townsend and Lord Nicholas St. John, brother of Gabriel St. John the rake from Book 1. The novel tells the story from both Nicholas and Isabel’s POV, sometimes switching from one to the other without clearly delineating the change which can be a little confusing.For those who have read Book 1 you will remember Lord Nicholas St. John, Nick, as the light-hearted flirt to his grumpy twin brother Gabriel. In this book we get a lot more of his background, including an introducing his constant friend and companion Durukhan, who he refers to as Rock. A Turkish man who rescued Nick from a Turkish prison which is also the origin for the story of how he got his scar. I would have liked this introduction to have taken place during Book 1 as I did find it a little disorienting to suddenly have such a close friend.Nick’s background is also a lot darker in this novel and whilst I did like the extra depth that added to his character I felt like some of that detail conflicted with his depiction in ‘Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake’. I also felt that Ms MacLean dragged out the explanation for his scar and prison time too long. By the time we got the account of why Nick’s had his deep dark secret that had caused his pain and behaviour, the whole thing felt overdone and a bit dry.Our heroine is Lady Isabel Townsend. She has spent her entire life in the country at her father’s estate in Yorkshire, never having a season in London nor any real interest in city life. Her father is a notorious gambler and she commonly refers to him as the Wastreal for his dissipated and spendthrift ways. At the start of the novel Isabel is dealing with a man whom her father has promised her hand in marriage in exchange for forgiving his latest gambling debt. I loved this scene and felt that Isabel was plucky and brave. However, for the rest of the novel these qualities got pushed into the background and I never felt that she rose to that level of boldness again.The story starts off with Nick receiving a request to track down the missing sister of the Duke of Leighton as they were apparently boyhood friends and Nick is a renowned tracker. At the same time an article has been published in the ladies publication, Pearls and Pelisses, on the eligible bachelors of London and how to land them. Of which, Nick is one of the preeminent bachelors mentioned and all the single, and some not so single, ladies of London are after him. The chance to escape London is jumped upon and leads Nick and Rock to Yorkshire and the neighbourhood of Isabel.What follows after Nick and Isabel’s initial meeting is a rather rapid insta-love story with lots of boring filling, how long can you read about roofing and marble statues without tuning out? In general, I have a problem with insta-love stories as I find that they just don’t read true. You add that to an era where women were restricted and repressed, and with our heroine who has no romantic experience but she is fooling around with Nick within 24 hours, and I felt that Isabel was acting against her nature. I would have preferred a slower burn for the romance, but this felt very situational. Nick was the first gentleman that Isabel had met and boom she was in love.Overall, it wasn’t a bad book but it did not live up to Book 1. There were several major plot and character issues that didn’t allow me to enjoy the story as much as I wanted. The sexy times scenes also follow (almost exactly) the pattern of ‘Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake’ and I would have liked to see something a little more original.3.5/5 Stars! If you have read and enjoyed Book 1 in the Love by Numbers series I recommend that you also read this novel, but I do not suggest that you read this as a standalone novel.
