Major Nathaniel Grey is a hardened war veteran and an
inveterate rake. Worse, he's a self-made man and only
friendships forged in battle allow him to skirt the edges of
the ton. He may be a womanizer, but he is loyal to a fault
to his friends, which takes him to do the doorstep of his
best friend's sister.
Emily -- Mrs. Crenshaw now -- well remembers Grey's visits to
her family home. Her life didn't turn out at all like she
expected, but she refuses to ask for help. She already has a
plan to take care of herself. Instead, Nathaniel insists on
taking her home to London, even if it puts both their lives
at risk.
ALONG CAME A ROGUE is a fast-paced, high-action thrill ride
punctuated by hot and sexy games between Grey and Emily.
They can't keep their hands off each other, even though they
have no future together. Author Anna Harrington creates wall
after wall to keep them from finding a happily-ever-after
together. She also created a hero and heroine who are
willful and determined enough to break any rules to make
their own path.
I did find myself wishing that Emily would have confided in
Grey sooner, at least about certain things that put both
their lives at risk. They also have enough external barriers
to their happiness that the internal ones they create for
themselves seem unnecessary and rather forced. Beyond that,
I enjoyed Grey and Emily's adventurous story.
ALONG CAME A ROGUE will appeal to historical romance readers
who enjoy a good mystery and explicitly steamy passion.
THE WICKEDEST SECRET . . .
Major Nathaniel Grey is free to bed whomever he wants,
whenever he chooses, and that's exactly how he likes it. His
only loyalties are to country and the two friends he served
with-brothers he'd do anything for. So when one of them is
gravely injured and asking for his little sister, Grey will
move heaven and earth to bring her home. He's greeted not by
the gangly girl he remembers, but a stunningly beautiful
woman holding a loaded musket. And he's utterly captivated
by her . . .
IS A SECRET SEDUCTION
Once upon a time, Emily would have loved nothing more than a
stolen hour with her brother's best friend, the dashing
officer who captured her heart and soul. But things are
different now-and so is she. Gone is the eager young woman
who believed in love. In her place is a widow weighed down
with secrets who desperately needs to disappear before
they're revealed. But Grey's sinfully sexy smile offers
protection unlike anything she's ever known, tempting her to
risk everything . . . even her heart.
