Too Dangerous for a Lady



Too Dangerous for a Lady by Jo Beverly

Summary: The new novel in the Rogue Series from the New York Times bestselling author—and five-time RITA Award winner…

Lady Hermione Merryhew, daughter of an impoverished marquess, already has her share of problems. The last thing she needs is an intruder in her bedroom, especially not a fugitive thief. She should scream, but the shabby rascal is a man from her past.

Six years ago, at her first ball, dashing Lieutenant Mark Thayne failed to steal a kiss, but succeeded in stealing a little of her heart. She's older and wiser now. She can't toss him to the wolves. Besides, she wants that kiss.

Now Viscount Faringay, Mark has never forgotten Lady Hermione, but he mustn't involve her in his dangerous life. He's infiltrated the Crimson Band, violent revolutionaries who plan a bloodbath in London, and if he survives the night he will be able to destroy them. Hermione is involved, however, and only he can protect her.

Angie's Comments: Although this is book 16 in the Rogue’s Company series, the series is really made so that each book can stand alone. Not too much is revealed about the previous books in the series, so I don’t mind going back and reading some the earlier books in the series. Between money problems, sick uncles, the threat of violent revolution, and keeping everything secret, there is a lot of action going on in Too Dangerous for a Lady. I liked the pace and the addition of each new twist made the plot much more interesting.


Recommended for readers of historical English romance and Jo Beverly fans.
