“But if your story is truthful …” Rhys began.
That makes no sense.”įaraday gave a defensive shrug. “If all this is true, why didn’t you wait for Cora to return? Go with her to Bellamy’s house? Instead you slunk off and left Leo alone.”īellamy said, “He’s right. Registration is open through Friday January 13 for Cannonball Read 9.Rhys gave their host a scrutinizing look. This book was read and reviewed as part of the charitable Cannonball Read. I’m an outlier, this book is the lowest rated of the series over on Goodreads, but I liked it quite a bit – for exactly what it is. Dare may have felt the need to ramp of the DRAMA, when really, this book had great small scale romance elements, a la Lisa Kleypas.īut I really enjoyed my time with these characters, and while its tough sometimes to listen to narrators have to be in the voice of the opposite sex, the narration here was good, even at 1.25 speed. The final quarter of the book is a bit cheesy and overly dramatic (Cave Ins! Runaway Carriages!), which was probably exacerbated by there not being as many story lines cluttering up the narrative as there was in One Dance with a Duke. We are also in the “someone else is off looking for clues” portion where we as the reader can sit back and let that disaster of a story line wait for the third book. The MURDER subplot is back, but it is contained to the second half of the novel and only completely dominates a couple scenes. I’ll say no more here because this is a very straightforward love story and to recount the play by plays just doesn’t serve it.
They have a shared history, and it is both a boon and a problem for their furthering relationship. He’s the very definition of a tortured soul and she’s a by the bootstraps survivor. Maur and Meredith Maddox as they square off and fall in love. The title is ludicrous, which is a problem with the genre as a whole, but c’mon, nothing here is remotely accurate.He’s not a rogue, she’s doing the tempting, and the temptations are nonstop. This is relatively early Dare, and she gets better at pacing those things out, but for now she only had one new location to introduce and a relatively small cast of characters straight out of central casting to introduce so things went more smoothly. When I finished We Should All Be Feministsand All the Single LadiesI needed a fluffy palate cleanser: audio book romance to the rescue!įirst, I liked this one quite a bit more than its predecessor. Then I promptly forgot to read it as I worked through other books this year. Since I started the Stud Club books that way, with Tessa Dare’s One Dance with a DukeI figured I would continue on that path for the series and picked up Twice Tempted by a Rogue. At the tail end of 2015 I listened to my first Romance audio book.
