The Washington Post Books to Read After Bridgerton | Buzzfeed Book Recommendations Based on Your Fave TV Show | Parade.com Best Summer Beach Reads 2024
Ted Lasso meets Bridgerton for a 19th century spin on The Hangover in USA Today bestselling author Jenny Holiday’s laugh-out-loud bromantic comedy featuring three Regency-era Earls on their annual trip – ride-or-die buddies offering one another unconditional support in everything from Lady problems to family woes.
From the author of CANADIAN BOYFRIEND, the perfect romp for fans of Evie Dunmore, India Holton, Virginia Heath, Manda Collins, and Suzanne Allain!
Even an earl needs his ride-or-dies, and Archibald Fielding-Burton, the Earl of Harcourt, counts himself lucky to have two. The annual trip that Archie takes with his BFFs Simon and Effie holds a sacred spot in their calendars. This year Archie is especially eager to get away until an urgent letter arrives from an old family friend, begging him to help prevent a ruinous scandal. Suddenly the trip has become earls-plus-girls, as Archie’s childhood pals, Clementine and Olive Morgan, are rescued en route to Gretna Green.
This…complicates matters. The fully grown Clementine, while as frank and refreshing as he remembers, is also different to the wild, windswept girl he knew. This Clem is complex and surprising—and adamantly opposed to marriage. Which, for reasons Archie dare not examine too closely, he finds increasingly vexing.
Then Clem makes him an indecent and quite delightful proposal, asking him to show her the pleasures of the marriage bed before she settles into spinsterhood. And what kind of gentleman would he be to refuse a lady?

Editorial Reviews
Praise for Earls Trip
"One of the best historical romances I've read in years. I truly felt like the characters were falling in love." —Julia Quinn, bestselling author of the Bridgerton novels
"Earls Trip is a romantic, funny, entirely charming romp. Holiday perfectly straddles the line between a historical setting and modern sensibilities, and the result is the most fun I’ve had reading a book in months. This was a breath of fresh air, and I will be first in line to read the next book in the series." —Martha Waters, author of To Have and To Hoax
"Earl's Trip is great fun. An effervescent historical romcom that spotlights male friendship alongside an appealing romance, it's sure to appeal to Bridgerton fans and anyone looking for a lovely and diverting read. Prepare to be entertained!" —India Holton, International Bestselling Author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels
“Readers who adore the banter between the “Bridgerton” brothers will want to grab “Earls Trip…Holiday, a veteran contemporary romance author, brings her trademark humor to her first historical novel.” —Washington Post on Earls Trip
“Earls Trip is as whimsical as the title suggests. It follows three earls whose annual boys’ trip becomes intercepted by two sisters. The rest is a delightful rom for anyone who can’t get enough of Bridgerton/Queen Charlotte or a period piece such as Downton Abbey.” —Buzzfeed
