Victorian Rebels series


The Victorian Rebels series by Kerrigan Byrne

The Highwayman
The Hunter
The Highlander
The Duke

Summary: They're rebels, scoundrels, and blackguards-dark, dashing men on the wrong side of the law. But for the women who love them, a hint of danger only makes the heart beat faster, in the stunning debut historical romance The Highwayman by Kerrigan Byrne.

Summary of the The Highwayman (Book 1)

Dorian Blackwell, the Blackheart of Ben More, is a ruthless villain. Scarred and hard-hearted, Dorian is one of Victorian London's wealthiest, most influential men who will stop at nothing to wreak vengeance on those who've wronged him...and will fight to the death to seize what he wants. The lovely, still innocent widow Farah Leigh Mackenzie is no exception-and soon Dorian whisks the beautiful lass away to his sanctuary in the wild Highlands...


But Farah is no one's puppet. She possesses a powerful secret-one that threatens her very life. When being held captive by Dorian proves to be the only way to keep Farah safe from those who would see her dead, Dorian makes Farah a scandalous proposition: marry him for protection in exchange for using her secret to help him exact revenge on his enemies. But what the Blackheart of Ben More never could have imagined is that Farah has terms of her own, igniting a tempestuous desire that consumes them both. Could it be that the woman he captured is the only one who can touch the black heart he'd long thought dead?


Angies comments: Victorian Rebels is a romance series of five novels (only the first four are out now). The books combine romance and danger. The series, although set in historical England, is concerned with the dark side of London and the period. I started in the middle of the series, then I picked up the first book. I recommend reading the books in order.


Recommended for readers who want a darker look at historical romance.
