This book was a good one where Connor and Gia shared a moment a few years back but when they find out that they work pretty much side by side they try to put feelings aside. Sometimes though chemistry and attraction is too much to withstand. Connor and Gia both had a troubled past at times it seemed they both overcame them but Connor’s family held him back. I wish Gia stood up for herself more to Connor but she also should have minded her own business when things weren’t willingly shared. Connor didn’t always treat Gia the best and his sister was the worst but Gia keeps coming back so Connor keeps up the pattern until it finally breaks. This story was a good one that kept me intrigued throughout and I will definitely read more.… (mehr)

The Story:

I tried. I tried for months but I just can’t get into it. The blurb led me to believe this would be right up my alley but every time I start walking I veer left and put the book down. So two and a half months later I have officially given up. I wanted to like Josh and Nero but ultimately I just don’t care. I would give this a chance on audiobook but I’m not paying almost $20 for something I’m already not enjoying.

One Rogue at a Time by Jade Lee
Rakes and Rogues #2. Historical romance.
Bramwell is the illegitimate son of a Duke. Because of his status, he works as a mercenary and bodyguard for the peerage. He meets Maybelle in a small countryside parish where she outmaneuvers him with intelligence and cunning. Maybelle is determined to be acknowledged in proper society but she knows that she needs to learn to speak properly. Meeting Bram is her perfect opportunity to learn, copy his speech patterns, and practice those “H’s” and “my” enunciations.

Entertaining oneupmanship, sensual pleasures, (steamy!) and acceptance. Maybelle is smart and determined and quickly able to pick up and mimic Bram’s speech. Listening on an audiobook, I could clearly hear his dialect and her original and corrected annunciation. The narrator did a wondering job dropping and changing her patterns.
The audiobook performance moved this from 4 to 5 for me.… (mehr)
