A review by marcelabrina
A Rogue of One's Own by Evie Dunmore

3.0

This historical rom-com uses an enemies-to-lovers trope to pit spinster and suffragist Lucinda Tedbury against Lord Tristan Ballentine, libertine and childhood tease. Lucie wants only to repeal the Married Women’s Property Act; Tristan wants only for his latest dalliance to be with Lucie. While I liked the witty dialogue and sexy times, I found they too often took a backseat to the obviously well-researched feminist struggle of the period. As a result, I didn’t quite believe the hero’s motivation and his character arc felt more convenient than realistic. But if you’re looking for witty banter and a strong feminist subplot, then this may appeal.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
