You're the Rogue That I Want
Red never shies away from a challenge.
Never.
But when Miss Hannah St. John strides into his life demanding—yes, demanding—he help her, he's certain she's more challenge than even he can handle.
Hannah is determined to transport an artifact from France—one that will change everything—even if it means working with a lawless man like Red. Nothing is more important than preserving history.
Nothing.
Not even the touch of a smuggler who inconceivably makes her stomach twist.
When a Rogue Loves a Woman
Notorious rogue, Lord Nathaniel Kingsley always tended to leap without thinking. Becoming a smuggler, adopting a sheep, getting engaged to Miss Patience Grey….
Patience has no need for a fiancé, or a husband. For once in her life, she wants to prove she's just as good as a man and she does not need Nathaniel Kingsley getting in her way. With her brother injured, it is up to her to continue her family's work…and that means tracking down a French spy and ensuring said spy will turn.
Unfortunately, no one believes she can do it alone. Which is where Nathaniel comes in.
Waiting for a Rogue Like You
He knows trouble when he sees it.
Fortunately, Drake likes trouble, especially when it comes in a particularly attractive package. While he and his crew of smugglers are waiting for their next job, Julianna makes a welcome distraction from the damned ache in his leg and the scars making his skin itch.
A shame Julianna doesn't like him one jot then, not even when he rescues her.
What's a Rogue Got to Do With It
Lewis Knight left behind his life as the son of nobleman years ago. The rough, scarred man is quite content to use his brute force and bad reputation to help the Earl of Redmere with his smuggling--a ruse to aid the war effort. Knight doesn't care too much about the reasons behind the subterfuge, so long as he gets paid.
And stays busy enough to forget his past for good.
That's not so easy, however, when he's forced to return home. And thanks to the earl's meddling, he's accompanied by the woman who plagues his thoughts far too often...

WICKED AS A COVER: You’re the Rogue that I Want I really enjoyed this story. Hannah and Red are from completely different worlds and life experiences yet are thrust together to complete a task. I particularly enjoyed the fun banter between the characters as they navigated many challenges on their way back to London. Themes of history, aristocracy, smuggling, war, bluestocking women and embracing one’s true desires all surface in this novel.
When a Rogue Loves a Woman Living up to personal expectations: I enjoyed watching this pair try to work together in an undercover mission. What fun watching the effects of reputation versus personal expectations as it influenced interactions in the present. Whenever I think of a frilly hideous pink dress I will have to smile from now on!
Waiting for a Rogue Like You Drake and Julianna meeting at the inn had a rocky start. I found each of their back stories interesting-particularly as they tried to hide details from each other. Family and post war issues combine to create an engaging plot. It was nice to see how love can seemingly overcome many challenges.
What’s a Rogue Got to do with it I had to savour this story of Knight and Louisa. These two had been present and smouldering at the edge of the last 3 stories. I think it was all the very realistic situations and hardships they each experienced in the past that endeared them to me. Sometimes shared journeys in overcoming hardships can be the thing drawing people together. In the end, it made the perfect conclusion to the series with HEA’s experienced by all-but most notably for Knight and Louisa who really really deserve happiness.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Reasonably entertaining, but there is a problem with this edition: only the first part of four has proper chapter boundaries. The remainder is one huge chapter, which makes for awkward navigation and large refresh delays. Update: The author has responded that the formatting problem is being fixed.
