Summary
For too long Miss Emily Parr has been subject to the whims of her indebted uncle and the lecherous advances of his repulsive business partner. Her plan to be done with dominating men forever is simple: find herself a kind husband who will leave her to her books.

It seems an easy enough plan, until she is unexpectedly abducted by an incorrigible duke who hides a wounded spirit behind flashing green eyes.

Godric St. Laurent, Duke of Essex, spends countless nights at the club with his four best friends and relishes the rakish reputation society has branded him with. He has no plans to marry anytime soon-if ever. But when he kidnaps an embezzler's niece, the difficult debutante's blend of sweetness and sharp tongue makes him desperate for the one thing he swears he never wanted: love.

Yet as they surrender to passion, danger lurks in Godric's shadowed past, waiting for him to drop his guard-and to rob him of the woman he can't live without.

This is an awful book. I find it hard to believe it was written by a woman. All the sex scenes are actually rape scenes, there is nothing romantic or sexy about rape. The lead character is the most unrealistic I have ever read, and this is nothing to do with the time period in which it is set. The storyline is ludicrous.

I really enjoyed this book, No. 1 in the League of Rogues series. A terrific story somewhere between bodice ripping and erotic, the characters were vibrant and the story solid enough to keeping you wanting to know what happens next. I’m now looking forward to uncovering the story’s of the rest of the league’s gentleman.

Awesome plot, well developed characters and the narrator was just amazing! I will be reading the rest of this series by Lauren Smith and looking for more after that.

So the hero had a good reason for kidnapping the heroine. Perhaps he and his friends could have shared a bit more. The kidnapping just infuriated me. The hero and one of his friends were big sexual harassers. But they are rogues after all (eye roll). When the heroine comes down for breakfast and was asked how she slept. I wish she had said “good - though laudanum being forced down your throat tends to ensure a person sleeps. I love my romances and I am almost always forgiving of a hero’s faults. I just couldn’t do it this time.

I never could get in to this book. I found it rather boring, sorry.
