The highly anticipated third book in The Pleasure Wars series by USA Today Bestselling Historical Romance Author Jess Michaels
Liam, the Earl of Windbury, had everything when he held his secret lover in his arms. Until a feud between their families left her dead, his body broken, and his sister married to his bitter enemy. Racked with guilt, simmering with rage, he's spent a year in seclusion, seeing no one except a few servants as he does his best to forget the past and patently refuses to think about any kind of future.
When courtesan Violet Milford enters Liam's lair, she's on a secret mission to gather information for Liam's desperate sister, who fears for his sanity, even his life. What she finds is a man scarred inside and out, whose dark, controlling sensuality hides the kind, wounded man within. Violet awakens a desire more powerful than Liam has ever known, and her stories weave a spell that begins to work its way past his defenses. But when the truth inevitably comes out, it could well destroy the love that is saving them both.

BEAUTY AND THE EARL is the third book in 'The Pleasure Wars' series and although it can be read alone, I'd very highly recommend reading at least book one "Taken by the Duke" first since the events in that story have a direct impact on this one...When courtesan Violet Milford is hired by the Duchess of Rothcastle to get information about her brother Liam, the Earl of Windbury, Violet doesn't hesitate. After all, she's not hurting anyone and the funds raised will secure her future and give her a new life. Then she meets Liam; a broken and scarred lord who lives in self-imposed exile after the woman he loved died because of a bitter family feud. Now estranged from his sister after she married his worst enemy, Liam barely has the will to live anymore. Then he meets the beautiful and passionate Violet, who opens up her heart and teaches him about true strength and goodness. Her love heals him heart and soul - but when her deception is revealed, can Liam ever forgive her?
At the start of this book I wasn't really sure if I was going to like Violet or not. She seemed a bit cold, and I didn't like how she was misleading Liam who had enough tragedy to last a lifetime. However, when I learned why she did what she did I honestly couldn't hold it against her. The guilt they both feel was gut wrenching and piercing and near broke my heart at times. My one complaint would be that the first half of the story seemed to be nearly all about sex. The second half was full of emotion though and had me hooked from that point on. I loved watching these two fall in love and was overjoyed to see Liam reunited with his sister. The epilogue was an utter joy to read and had all the couples from this series coming together.
In the end I really enjoyed this entire series, and though I'd term this an erotic romance that's mostly due to the number of sex scenes, which is a lot! None of them were anything I hadn't read before though and all were M/F with one spot of voyeurism.
Here is a list of the entire series for those who don't already know:
Book 1 - TAKEN BY THE DUKE (Ava Windbury & Christian Rothcastle)
Book 2 - PLEASURING THE LADY (Lady Portia & Miles Weatherford) Ava's best friend's story
Book 3 - BEAUTY AND THE EARL (Violet Milford & Liam Windbury)
Book 4 - BEAUTIFUL DISTRACTION (Olivia Cranfield & Malcolm Graham) Violet & Liam's best friends - This is a novella and overlaps "Beauty and the Earl"

Beauty and the Earl The Pleasure Wars Book 3 edition by Jess Michaels Romance eBooks Reviews
A loved this story! Liam is broken not only on the outside from the accident but on the inside as well. He is bitter and angry that his sister married their families worst enemy and hidden himself away from everyone. He sister is desperate to receive any information on how her brother is, hires a courtesan to use any means necessary to get close to him. What a wonderful story, Violet is a smart and strong woman, she has overcome many obstacles and is close to reaching her goal. Her only problem is she is falling in love with the person she is deceiving. A sexy and fun read and I admit a few tears were shed at the ending.
BEAUTY AND THE EARL is the third book in the Pleasure Wars series. It concludes the feud that was first presented in TAKEN BY THE DUKE. (There is a coda novella Beautiful Distraction whose events run concurrently to this novel, but this book concludes the main plot of the series). Liam, the Earl of Winbury, is alone. The woman he loved was killed almost two years ago and his beloved sister has married his mortal enemy. In Bath, he meets (in one of the best meeting scenes ever) Violet Milford, a courtesan. The two begin a sexual relationship that begins to heal Liam. What he doesn't know is that Violet was sent to spy on him by his sister from whom he is estranged. Violet wants to learn Liam'secret, but she doesn't anticipate that it will require giving up her own.
I really liked the relationship between Liam and Violet. It was sweeter than I expected. The scene where they first meet was unexpected and hot. The book was less about sex than I had thought it would be -- even though sex is pretty frequent between the two characters. instead, the sex was less titillating and the real focus was on the growing emotional intimacy between Liam and Violet. For these two solitary people, that is much more revealing and sexy than the tab a goes into slot b part of the story.
There is another romance between secondary characters that will be told from their point of view in BEAUTIFUL DISTRACTION. I loved seeing Christian and Ava again, getting an update on their romance and finally seeing Ava and Liam reconciled.
Thus book is better if the reader has read at least the first book of the series TAKEN BY THE DUKE so that the relationships between the characters is clear. While this book explains some of the background, the deep emotions behind the facts are better explained in the first book.
This is a wonderful story about a courtesan, Violet Milford, who was contracted by the Duke and Duchess of Rothcastle to gather information for them concerning the well-being of Liam, the Earl of Windbury, who is Lady Rothcastle's brother. Ever since a feud between their families a year ago which left Liam's fiance, the Duke of Rothcastle's sister, dead, he had been inconsolable and out of reach.
Once Violet enters into the picture, unbeknownst to all of them, the healing starts to begin. Not only that, but she brings a friend, Olivia Cranfield, into the mix who also brings a sense of healing and love to Liam's friend, Malcolm Graham, as well. Other pros include lots of humor, romance, sizzling sex scenes, forgiveness, love and redemption in the end, effectively ending the decades-long feud between the Windbury and Rothcastle families.
Though it sounds kind of cliche, I thought that Violet jumped into bed too soon with Liam upon meeting him at the Bath House, thus becoming easy prey too soon. I also felt that she was not doing her best to fight for Liam's love too much in the end and seemed to have given up the fight too soon.
Other than that, the book was a refreshing take on the Victorian England era in the eyes of a woman who unfortunately, fell into the life of a courtesan, due to some unfortunate circumstances early in life. Highly recommended if you're into heroines who are honed strong by their life experiences and are not afraid to go after what they want.
