My Rogue Lord is the 109 page prequel to Katherine
Bone's full length novel Duke By Day, Rogue by Night. It
provides historical insight and explains why the Nelson's
Tea group was formed.
The main characters are Gillian Chauncy and Lord Simon
Danbury. It was interesting to read about these two
characters. Ms. Bone created a strong, brave heroine and a
hero was an honorable man. These characters loved each
other but were unable to be with each other.
MY LORD ROGUE
provides background and sets the stage for the future
books in the series. I enjoyed reading it and finished it
in one afternoon. I am hoping that Ms. Bone will devote a
future full length novel to these characters.
Gillian Chauncey, Baroness Chauncey, is a master of
disguise, trained by her expatriated husband, a former
French royalist, in the arts of espionage. When a
dangerous
life or death secret lands in her lap, she's thrust into a
perilous world of ticking clocks and desperation, arrowing
her directly into the arms of the man who arranged her
marriage.
Lord Simon Danbury is no ordinary nobleman. He's been
tasked
by Admiral Nelson to organize an elite group of
clandestine
first sons willing to sacrifice all to protect England's
shores. When an assassination attempt is made on Nelson,
Simon isn't sure what poses more danger, the enemy or the
masterfully seductive Gillian.
