The Virgin and the Rogue

The Rogue Files (#6)
by Sophie Jordan

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

Let me just say- I could not put this book down! I have been enjoying reading Sophie Jordan’s The Rogue File series for a while… and one of my favourite thing she does with her characters is introduce them in a previous book and then turn your perception of them upside down by the time they get their own story!

Through turn of fate, Charlotte Langley will finally be able to marry her childhood sweetheart and have the quiet life she dreams of… that is until her brother-in-laws rakish half brother shows up and makes her start feeling things… or was that the love potion her sister tricked her into taking? What is she thinking? She has a fiancee!

Kingston is the recognized bastard of a notorious Earl has come to his half-brothers estate to find some peace. He no longer finds enjoyment though vice and is uncertain as to what his future may hold. Until one night he comes across the demur Miss Langley and she shows him a passion that he has never seen before. Now he wants a future with her, but he doesn’t fit onto the plan Charlotte has already laid out for herself.

I adored the character of Kingston. I can’t help loving a reformed rake. Charlotte took more to warm up to, but in the end once she began to look into herself she became very likeable. I devoured this book with great alacrity in my need to see how this love triangle would resolve itself!

As usual, Sophie Jordan delivers a story that grabs you from the begging and compiles you to read just one more page… until the end! This was great a continuation of the series and would be enjoyable read on its own too!

The Virgin and the Rogue by Sophie Jordan is scheduled to release April 26th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from HarperCollins Publishers, Avon Books through Edelweiss+. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Remember Love

Remember Love Ravenswood series, Book 1 by Mary Balogh ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Historical romance queen, Mary Balogh introduces us to another brilliant extended family and reminds up to remember love in one swoop with this series opener! First off, this epic second chance romance gave me pure romantic chills that were remittent to reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Her beautiful storytelling and detailed descriptions and character building really immersed me into this story and made me root for second chances and love! Childhood neighbours, Devlin Ware and Gwyneth Rhys never know the other felt the same attraction and pull towards the other until the stars aligned at the neighbourhood fete and they finally discover their mutual affection… but they were not mean to be young lovers, since family scandal befalls Devin and he is banished from his family home. White no where to go and a determination to shed his innocence and become a man, he enlist in a foot regiment… and stays away at war ...

White Knight Needed

White Knight Needed Reluctant Heroes, Book 2 by Betina Krahn ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Barclay Howard is bigger and burlier than your average gentleman… and thus he has found himself to be somewhat of an antidote to the fairer sex. As a result he is more often found behind the pages of his Ivanhoe novel than out and about attempting to court a fair lady. But when his path crosses with down on her luck Norah Capshaw, his white knight complex rises up to make him go above and beyond again and again to be her hero… even though she is incredibly reluctant to the idea! This was a fun adventure romance filled with roadside hijinks, and a family mystery. Barclay was a perfect hero in this book. He was always there offering support and rescue to Norah. On the other side Norah’s resistance of Barclay and his efforts was the only wet blanket on this otherwise delightfully sweet romance! Overall, this is my second Betina Kran book and I find her writing very light hearted and action packed. De...

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...
