The Country House Romantic Mysteries blend Audrey Harrison’s Regency romance style with elements of mystery. Persuading the Earl (2023), Beguiling the Earl (2023), and Captivating the Earl (2024) each pair a clever heroine with a titled gentleman against the backdrop of an English country house hiding secrets.
Each title follows a pattern: a verb describing how the heroine wins over her earl, followed by the mystery that brings them together. Persuading the Earl opens the series, and the two 2023 releases came close enough together that readers did not have to wait long for the second. Captivating the Earl rounded out the trilogy in 2024.
Harrison has written dozens of Regency romances, and the mystery thread in this series gives it a different flavor from her more straightforward love stories. Readers who want the manners and settings of Regency England with an added layer of suspense will find these three books a good match.
