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.
