The captivating Lady Sarah Crawford is set to inherit a marvelous fortune for which she couldn't care less. Although marriage has never been her cup of tea, it doesn't keep her father from arranging a trip to the country, where Sarah will engage in a week-long fete at the estate of the Duke of Faversham. In an unexpected twist of fate, a mesmerising encounter with a wickedly handsome Earl at the Duke's ball will instantly set her body and heart on fire. The more time she spends with the charming stranger, the more she finds herself wondering... Could he really be the one to make her lay aside her doubts for a chance at true love and strong desire?

Patrick Day is an orphan with a painful past he wants to forget. Once he hears of the Duke's ball, a wager with his greatest friends is arranged, setting Patrick up to arrive at the fete... dressed as an earl. Even though he feels confident that the elite members of society will believe his disguise, he has second thoughts about getting involved in such a bet. Little did he know that this would be the last thing on his mind, after meeting the alluring daughter of a Duke and seeing her as the most irresistible temptation. However, he is painfully aware that a socially forbidden love would go down in flames before it even fills them with sparks. In the end, will Patrick manage to tame his growing feelings, or will he succumb to Sarah's seduction?

The more Sarah and Patrick fall for each other, the more Patrick finds himself trapped in his false identity. Just when the fire between them is burning hotter than ever, there will soon be clouds on the horizon. Will Patrick's secrets and lies tear them apart forever? Or will their hearts find the path to each other by following the calling of true passion?

"Allured by a Lord's Touch" is a historical romance novel of approximately 60,000 words. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed happily ever after.

Nice clean romance full of twists and turns.

Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2021

It was a good story and interesting to see how a common laborer could make others think he was an Earl. You may think he could have learned the mannerisms because he grew up watching an Earl since his mother was the housekeeper. However, you have to wonder how realistic it is. The lords and ladies at that time were very particular about their clothes. One suit bought second hand may work for one night but how can you wear the same clothes morning, afternoon and night and for people not to notice specially when you go riding. He did eventually buy more clothes. His horse was borrowed and later bought from a farmer who was not rich since he had no servants. However, the horse was of the same quality as the other horses ridden by the other lords and ladies? The other thing that bothered me was the mistake. In the blurb and the beginning of the novel, Sara is the daughter of the Duke of Benton. Later on he is the Earl of Benton. While this does not change the story this discrepancy caught my eye. Since I am sure he was not demoted from a duke to an Earl, this is an example of where better proofreading was needed. If you don’t pay attention to every little word you may not notice these things. The story itself was well written and stayed interesting. I had guessed the ending but will not reveal it since I don’t want to spoil it for others. However, the motivation for events occurring years earlier were never explained. The best thing for new readers Is to enjoy the story and don’t try to analyze it. As long as You don’t dig in deeply, you will enjoy reading the book.

Sarah is the daughter of a Duke and she’s not interested in marriage but her father is. She’s to attend a party at the country estate of a Duke and meets Patrick an Earl. But Patrick is an orphan and has grown up alone. His friends make a wager that he’ll not go to the Dukes party and mix with the other people there. He takes the wager and mixes in. He meets Sarah and the two are instantly smitten with each other. She’s thinking that marriage may not be so bad with Patrick but what will happen when she finds out he’s not an Earl but just a regular person? I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

I much preferred several other titles by the author. I found it difficult to get through the middle third of this book. The last third was delightful and the beginning held promise as well.

I loved this Regency romance with great characters, romance and intrigue. Sarah was the oldest daughter of an Earl who was trying to marry her off. She and her younger sister were spending a week at a house party hosted by a Duke hoping to marry her when they stopped into a haberdashery where four young men were in the men's side. One caught her attention. He was Patrick, an orphan who travelled around working with his friends. They get him he couldn't get into the house party held by the duke. There was so much romance and intrigue. The ending was great. Looks like the next book will be interesting. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy.

Beautifully complex and sweet

Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2021

This is a lovely and complex story. The main characters are both social chameleons, playing their expected roles while remaining true to themselves; so it is easy to see how they fell in love. Being a romance novel, it's appropriate that the story glosses over the legal complexities introduced; the matter of someone impersonating one of novel birth, for example To attempt to fully develop the multiple plots would be unreadable. Sloan beautifully crafted the story and let her characters develop their complex nature. There was nothing forced about them. I received this book as an advanced reader copy in exchange for my honest opinion. This is the second Sloan novel I have read, and I'm hooked. Although there were a couple of minor typos, it is evident that Sloan has a strong editorial team.

The hero is deceptive on his identity at a house party, but is he really who he thinks he is? The heroine really doesn’t want a marriage, but daddy the Duke does. How this works out for both of them makes for an interesting tale. It starts out as a romance between classes which will never do for a duke’s daughter, but then facts are uncovered that lead to the HEA. Good read

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2021

A unique scenario, a commoner pretending to be noble and crashing a party of a Duke. Surprisingly he succeeds and wins the heart of the Lady to the dismay of the Duke and her father. But, what the Duke seemed to want was a trophy wife who did as she was told, certainly not what our heroine, Sarah wanted for her life. Who she ends up with depends on if he was the son of a another Duke, one of a set of twins tho’t to have died at birth, but taken by a household maid. I wonder, if Sarah would have truly married the Duke, if Patrick had not succeeded, after all the deal was brokered by the men, I’d like to think not. The only thing that confused me, was Sarah inheriting the title, Ithought it always had to go to a male relation?

An amazing story with a unique plot

This is an amazingly written story with a plot that is quite unique. The story is one of emotional turmoil and rags to riches. The characters are brilliantly crafted, and have the determination to achieve their dreams. The extended epilogue is used to bring their story's to completion beautifully. This is a delightful book, that will suit anyone who loves clean historical romances, that have an unusual twist. I read an ARC copy.
