A Gentleman's Game
Miss Edith Elliott wants Mr. Nelson James.
Mr. Nelson James wants Miss Edith Elliott.
But the rule of attraction have little say in London Society.
Edith learns quickly that as the daughter of one of London's wealthiest bankers, she has to live by a certain set of rules. Yes, rules - something she hates but needs to live with. She is not allowed to eat to her heart's content. She is not allowed to shy away from conversation. But most importantly, Edith is only allowed to marry a man with a title. So, denying her heart, she turned her back on herself and looked toward destiny.
Too bad the man who happens to catch her eye does not play by the rules. Nelson James is a mathematician, wealthy landed gentry, and the inventor of a new creation that is bound to change the course of the world forever. But what Nelson doesn't have is a title. Still, to have Edith in his arms, he is willing to give away everything he owns for simply one week in her presence. And it is one week that neither will ever forget.
Will destiny and rules win the day or will Nelson and Edith find a way to gain their happy-ever-after?

A Gentleman's Game
On one hand, I kinda enjoyed this story. I really wanted to. The plot for it sounded good but It dragged a lot & the editing was confusing. Cut out some of the redundancy would have helped.
My biggest issue with this story was the setting. Other than a reference to Mary Shelley, this story read more like a Victorian or even Edwardian timeframe. The verbiage, the gaming house, the Hotels. Especially the confusing bit about the hero's mother & the fighting screamed modern not Regency.
I have not read any others stories in this series, this is a middle one, and I have to say I won't be. I'm sorry but just no.

Was I reading the same book as all those five star readers?
Firstly: The formatting was DREADFUL! Double spaces inserted without any reason and no indents.
Secondly: The writing was laughable in places: His suit would have to be thrown away and his black hair plastered wetly to his face.
Thirdly: After Chapter 3 I was totally and utterly confused. Far too many characters thrown in without any explanation and then at the end of chapter 3, I read this!!!!
PLEASE TAKE NOTE BELOW
In case you want to know more about the characters' relationships & their connections, please refer to the Family Tree listed before the Prologue
wtf???? At that point I gave up. Not recommended for anyone.

Publisher's Description:
Miss Edith Elliott wants Mr. Nelson James.
Mr. Nelson James wants Miss Edith Elliott.
But the rule of attraction have little say in London Society.
Page Count: around 330 pages
Edith learns quickly that as the daughter of one of London's wealthiest bankers, she has to live by a certain set of rules.
Yes... rules - something she hates but needs to live with.
She is not allowed to eat to her heart's content.
She is not allowed to shy away from conversation.
But most importantly, Edith is only allowed to marry a man with a title.
So, denying her heart, she's turned her back on herself and looked toward destiny.
... Too bad the man who happens to catch her eye does not play by the rules.
Nelson James is mathematician, wealthy landed gentry, and the inventor of a new creation that is bound to change the course of the world forever.
But... what Nelson doesn't have is a title.
Still, to have Edith in his arms, he's willing to give away everything he owns for simply one week in her presence.
And it's one week that neither will they ever forget.
But at week's end, will destiny and rules win the day or will Nelson and Edith find a way to gain their happily-ever-after?
My Thoughts:
This is the continuation of a very good if sweet historical romance series. I have read and reviewed several titles by this author under two pseudonyms and have enjoyed all of them.
I read this book in short order and despite the sweet nature found it to be well written and the characters very well developed.
I would give this book 4 of 5 stars for story line and characterization and 2 of 5 flames for heat. There are heated moments even though there is no actual sexual interaction.
I will surely be reading additional titles by this author.

Historical Christian Fiction. 1850's London Society Romance novel that is clean. I read the whole series that was out by February 2017 during February 2017. I love the way the author introduced characters and the peripheral characters from the previous book become the main characters of the next. These are just fun, easy reads that all have different nuances to their stories.
Book Order:
1. To Love a Lord of London
2. The Regards of a Rogue
3. Gaining the Gentleman
4. The Skills of a Scoundrel
5. A Gentleman's Game
6. The Gentleman's Game of Love
7. The Gentleman's Law on Love

Simple plot, romantic, old time story line but entertaining.

I wish I had started this series from book one rather than enter it at book 5. If that were so, my rating might have been higher. I admit I had difficulty figuring out who was who. Moreover, Ms. Meyers often left the hero and heroine behind and explores a minor character or one designed for a future story.
In chapters 1-10, she introduces 24 characters. (I made a list trying to determine the connections between them.)
She switches point of view often. Sometimes I had to reread a passage to determine in whose head it occurred.
The author uses words like "electric," which seems out of place in a story in the Regency.
In part of the story it was the Duchess of Hatcher. Later it was the Countess of Hatcher. Same person. How did the lady get a demotion?
Sometimes she used the Dowager Duchess of Henman. Other times it was Hensman.
The author switches Kenley to Kinley in the story.
The manuscript required closer editing. I expect a few typos and misusage, but not so many as was found here.
These examples come from the first 11 chapters. After that, I quit making notations:
Split infinitives: "to never be," "to not talk," "to even think," "to still look," "to not look," "to not be," "to ever glance," '"to not block," "to not think," "to not approach," etc.
"been to slow" should be "too"
"Woman called him" should be "Women"
"more wealthy than" should be comparative form of "wealthier"
"spoke no more on topic" should be "no more on the topic"
"Something that Nelson already know" should be "knows"
"put those feelings way" should be "away"
"different than" is never correct. It is "different from," especially in a period where English was more correct that the modern way of speaking.
"and then then aimed the stand" should be "and then aimed to stand"
"the way her she set" should be "the way she set"
"every step she took as he followed him" should be "as she followed him"
"For it there was one thing" should be "for there was..."
"off one another" - Use "each other" for two people. Use "one another" for three or more.
The author has the character being a "knight" and part of the beau monde. She treats "knighthood" as if it is a peerage.

This story was a bit confusing to me. There were way too many characters to keep track of. The author's notes at the end of certain chapters were more of a distraction than a help. It interrupted the flow of my reading. I saw the list of characters before I began reading. I didn't need notes reminding me to refer to the list to clarify relationships. A well-written story wouldn't confuse the reader in such a way that a chart had to be used as a reference during reading. Also, I had trouble following the conversations between the heroine and her father because he was referred to as "Calvin." If she's talking to her father, he's not "Calvin", he's Papa or Mr. Elliott. From this main character's point of view, he's never "Calvin."
The plot seemed to drag on and I soon found myself not really caring if these two got together or not.

Loved it.
This Wardington Park series is a special treat for me. It's one I can read over and our again. Nelson and Edith's love story had me holding my breath waiting for them to overcome the many obstacles that prevented them from being together. And I'm thrilled that Martin and Abigail are finally together. It's long overdue. This is my five star read.

I really enjoyed this story. The reader has got to know Edith and Nelson quite well in previous books so it’s a relief to hear the outcome of their story! The subplots are also entertaining.
February 24, 2017
Frustrating! Unresolved, constipated and annoying.
I read this book because I generally like these period romances no matter how wishy they washy they tend to be. The good: shrug. I can't say....
The meh: How about some editing? The banal word choices, spelling mistakes and incorrect word usage and punctuation mistakes are just annoying but I've learned to live with that.
The bad: (spoiler alert) there are like 7 million stories in one and not a single cohesive thread. NOT ONE!!The opening preamble never relates to the story AT ALL! There are characters introduced with such long back stories that the author literally interrupts her chapters with a note to see a convoluted character list in the front of the book which is meaningless unless (I'm assuming) you have read 22 other equally annoying books. The story of Mr James and Edith is frustrating and constipated which could be told in about 50 pages. "Bla bla bla. I love you you love me but we are of different social classes". SOS (Same old story. ) neither character is interesting on their own and their interactions could be great but are stilted and painfully frustrating. The next chapter is 2 pages away and is an entirely different character set who we never see again. Then at the end daddy swoops in a romantic aww all I want is for you to find love...WTF! There is a teaser of Mr James hatred for his mother... not resolved
There is a dislike of Edith's father for Mr James (no plausible reasons given)
There is a teaser of Mr James's almost royal family friends ... unresolved and unexplained how he got such friends.
A back story of Mr James' poisoned father... unresolved
Mr James is offered a title. How and why the person is offering it to him... yeah you guessed it. Unresolved.
A Spanish Duke no one likes... why doesn't anyone like him? Yeah, unexplained....
how is the owner of Edith's fathers bank's competition related to a Spanish duke?? Unresolved.
I never leave reviews but this is such a hot freaking mess which could have been great but is such totally suckish, painful, garbage that I am angry at myself for finishing the book with hope of any character resolution. Save your time, read something good not this steaming pile of garbage.

I like this book, as well as the series it's in. The author does a good job with her characters and the storylines. They are all different and interesting. This book is clean, but it is probably the most descriptive in the series so far. (Though I've read the next two books in the series and the kissing scenes are more descriptive in them.) In future books if the author goes any farther then I'm going to have to be finished, which would be a shame because I like these books. The storylines are fun and so are the characters.

Another Hit By Eleanor Meyers
I think this has to have been my favorite in this series. This is Nelson and Edith's story, perhaps the most heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. We see these two star crossed lover try so hard to deny themselves of each other's love
because Edith's father is determined she will marry a titled man which Nelson is not. Because Edith's mother died when birthing her, she has always felt responsible for her father losing his beloved wife. Thus, she has always done all she could to please her father...even denying herself the love of the man she wants above all others.
This is a very talented writer. Reading her work will take you right into the world of these characters.

Great story
This story is about a love that began about three years ago. Nelson James has memories that makes him angry. He loves Miss. Edith but he is not a member of the elite. Miss Edith loves Mr. James but thinks that her father wants her to marry a member of the ton. The book has a great story and happy ending!

Once again Eleanor Meyers has written a clean historical Regency romance. This book can be read as a stand alone, but it brings characters together from the Wardington Park series. Although Edith Elliott wants Nelson James and vice versa, as the daughter of one of London's wealthiest bankers, she has to live by a certain set of rules. With these rules of London society, Edith is only allowed to marry a man with a title. Nelson saved her life a year ago when she was stung by a bee which she is highly allergic to, and they can't forget each other. Nelson is a mathematician, wealthy landed gentry, and the inventor of a new creation that is bound to change the course of the world forever, but he doesn't have is a title. Is it even possible and will he do it to win a happily ever after with Emily? I highly recommend this book and the author. Can hardly wait for the next one.

Every time I read a book by Eleanor Meyers, I think that it just can't get any better. Then I read her next one. And it does.
I am so thankful that not so very long ago I decided to read a book by Ms. Meyers. I was hooked. Now, I have to have the book as soon as it comes out. Yes, they are that good.
This is a sweet and touching Regency Romance. Your heart will ache for both Nelson and Edith. With each word and turn of the page, you will find yourself rooting for them, hoping beyond hope that they find love and happiness with each other.
While this book is part of a series, you can read it as a stand alone. If you do, I would encourage you to go back and read the others as previous characters are part of the book. It's fun to know their story.
Do yourself a favor. Download the book and just start reading. Make sure you leave yourself some time. Once you start reading it, you will want to keep going until The End.

Eleanor Meyers , yet again, outshines with her books. A gentleman's game is the story of Edith an Nelson. Edith, is the daughter of an extremely wealthy banker. Nelson is the son of a landed gentry. Edith's father wants her to marry into nobility, as her eldest sister. One year earlier, she meets Nelson , when he saves her from an insect bite. Edith is highly allergic and it could have been fatal. He then proposes twice, she declines. Although she also has feelings for him, she is dissuaded by her sister. She also feels compelled to obey her father. An opportunity arises where they have to spend time together. Although every book is a stand alone book, we meet characters we have met before. Also , if you read this book, you will want to read all her books! I so look forward to continuing to read about Lady Lindsey and Guy Elkin! A bonus is seeing what happens to Duke Wardington and Abigail! I highly recommend this book! Enjoy!

A Gentleman's Game by Eleanor Meyers is another perfect masterpiece. The tale is addictive from beginning to end. Readers will be swept off their feet. The romance builds with every page. Clean, sweet, and fast-paced. This plot is the best well-crafted story that I have read by Eleanor Meyers. Instantly, I want to know more about her characters. Edith and Nelson pulled at my heart and had me falling deeply in love. Their story is captivating. Rules, society, and where the hearts lead...are three powerful forces that are being carded inside this Victorian romance novel. A Gentleman's Game brings about the most fascinating personalities and roles. A mathematician and a lady...love comes knocking their world apart leaving them wondering where it will lead them next. However, as the rules have it, neither one can be together. Is having a title over rated or will love fail...? Overall, I highly recommend this talented writer's book. She never disappoints.

On the one hand I had really enjoyed this book, but on the other hand, I didn’t think that this book was as good as the other ones that I’ve already read. I felt that at times this book got a little too confusing and it was hard to keep up with all the different characters. It was just too hard to keep track, so I had just gone with it. I really lost interest in reading the rest of the novel and had taken a break before finally finishing it. There were also many editing issues. I think this book should have gone through a more thorough edit. I’m hoping that the next book would be better though.

Loved it!
These characters almost seem real! Love the way the author has stayed with the same families throughout this series. We get to see into so many lives and how they connect. This story is about Nelson and his love for Edith. He never gives up, even though he thinks she is so far above him. His love has continued and he has bettered himself hoping to win her, not knowing she has always loved him, but can't get around her Father's need for her to marry a time th left. What a tangled web! But don't despair, their HEA is on the way! Good read!

A Gentlemans Game.
A Gentlemen's Game. A slow start but continued to a terrific ending it was well worth reading. I enjoyed that Abigail and the Duke of Warrington finely got together and declared their love for each other. I loved that result very much. And the Author is so right true Communication between people and especially People who love each other is so very important. The only thing I had a problem with was Nelson's use of Woman there is just something not right about that especially that he loved Edith so much. But I am glad for a good ending.

Eleanor stories always flow so well from book to book that you never feel like you've reached the end of the road. Just the end of that story. Nelson story surprised me by his intense love of Edith. I don't do summaries. For the story should be the book and not here but even though I knew who the heroine would be this book w a s full of surprises. We get a more emotional look at her family and learn that her father is not the heartless person we believe. Amanda also shows live hasn't changed her desire for the "deal" but with Max looking out for them no one will lose. Love this as usual.
