Nauseatingly cheesy and underwhelming. Hard to say who was more emotional: the men or the women. So very cheesy and over blown at times. And the villain never really was a threat. Just a strange, meandering book.

A rogue to ruin. This is a fantastic book. It’s the last of the series and I think one of the best! It’s full of wonderful exciting characters. Those four girls are real pistols. Rafe finds out so much about himself and his sister, most of all he finds true love.

Lord Bodyguard and Miss Dazzling. Lord Bodyguard and Miss Dazzling. And Aphrodite. Anne meets Rafe at Hatchard’s and they share weekly clandestine explorations of London, but they do so without exchanging names. But, well, things are complicated. Rafe is broken, a bit of a Regency Batman. He’s good at letting things, people go. But he loves books and collects them. Something he shares with Anne. He’s trying to figure out his past. Anne’s groom was arrested at their wedding. A narrow escape, that. Anne and Rafe are adventurous, well matched which of course means that Rafe is his own worst enemy. Recommend.

Lord Bodyguard and Mrs. Dazzling. Rafe Blackwell has done a lot of things he isn’t proud of, but he did them so that he and especially Selina would survive and find something better. He has changed; he wants to be a gentleman. Most of all wants to find out who he and Selina are and what really happened to his family. He and Selina have been searching for clues to their origins and have found a promising piece of information. Following that clue, with the help of friends, they are going to discover a lot more than they can imagine. We last saw Anne when her betrothed was arrested for extortion at the altar before the wedding begins. Rafe and Anne meet Hatchard’s book store and strike up a wonderful, if anonymous friendship as Lord Bodyguard and Mrs. Dazzling. They enjoy each other’s company and have much in common. After losing track of each other, they meet again when Rafe comes to Anthony to ask for help with tracing the new information. After that, they seem to run into each other everywhere. Pain from the past causes Rafe to resist their growing attraction. Hopefully, Anne will be able to break down the walls he has built around his heart. This is an amazing mystery and adventure, and an absolutely fantastic love story. It is action-packed and full of secrets, danger, betrayal, all kinds of scandal, murder, and attempted murder (multiple times). Rafe and Anne are remarkable. They seem so different; he hard and a little grumpy, and she outgoing and optimistic. But, they are both kind, caring, protective of those they love, just wonderful. Selina and Harry, Thomas and Beatrix, and Jane and Anthony are here to help finally solve the mystery. And solved it is. The villain is shocking, but the truth is delicious! This story, the whole series, is great. Definitely 5 stars! I received an ARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. My review is voluntary.

I couldn’t put it down!. Another winner. Has all the components of a great story. Bad boy trying to be good, mystery and a determined women. Rafe has his own little kingdom in London’s shady side of town. He has decided to turn the leaf and try to discover who his parents were. He has little memories of when he was 5 years old and his nurse had taken him and his sister away from a burning building that his parents had died in. Trying to make amends to his sister, Selina, who he hadn’t seen in many years. Buying a mansion in London elite section, leaving behind his criminal past is where the story starts. In a chance meeting he finds himself giving aid to a mysterious woman wearing a veil in Hatchard’s. Intrigued by the mystery women, they decided not to introduce themselves and nicknamed themselves Lord Bodyguard and Mrs. Dazzling. They had a few sightseeing adventures, but then life intruded and they hadn’t seen each other in months. Anne has never forgotten Lord Bodyguard, but didn’t know how to contact him. Hiding out at her sister after a broken engagement, she meets Lord Bodyguard again when he visits her brother in law. The roller coaster ride begins, a fast paced well written read.  I am voluntarily posting an honest review after reading an Advance Reader Copy of this story.

I could not gobble this book down fast enough. I could not gobble this book down fast enough. All the tantalizing little hints about what was truly going on that we’d uncovered in previous volumes of the series, finally come into full light. And I was desperate to see how they’d all play out; what it would take to get the happy ever after I longed to see. It felt to me that Rafe’s story is told through moments of self-discovery. Even his relationship with Anne is about learning to love himself in spite of, possibly even because of, the choices of his past. Anne’s journey is also about discovery, but more about the people around her than herself. I loved where this story took us, and adored the way it ends. However, I hate that the series is over and I have to say “goodbye” to these characters now. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through NetGalley.

My favourite of the series. I received an ARC of this book to read through a reading group. All opinions are my own. A Rogue to Ruin is the third book in Darcy Burke’s delightful The Pretenders series and one I’ve been waiting to read because the character of Rafe Blackwell intrigued me. He’s one of those dark heroes with lots of layers to unwrap. I advise reading the series in order as there is a mystery running through it and it’s resolved in this book. The heroine Anne Pemberton is spunky, adventurous, not afraid to ask for what she wants, as well as being kind and intelligent. The trope is friends to lovers with a mystery to be solved, lots of adventure, a nasty villain and friends and family that have your back. I enjoyed this book immensely and highly recommend reading it. Steam Level: Medium.
