A Rogue to Remember by Emily Sullivan
4.0
3.5 stars, actually? 3.5 to 4?
This was good! Not my fav historical romance out there, but I’m not gonna deny that I was quite invested in our two main characters and some scenes really had me HOOKED. Mainly those taking place during the final third of the book. And don’t even get me started on those hot scenes, WHEW!
However, I felt like the pacing was off at times and some endings just...ended too fast? A few loose ends I was still left wondering about, as well as a few questions about this whole spy thing that didn’t really go anywhere. I actually didn’t even really mind how quick these two were at getting (back) together, even within the span of a few days, but I didn’t believe how fast that years-long conflict just ended. There’s also so much family history that needed to be unfolded and a quick little synopsis within didn’t satisfy me.
And wouldn’t it have been awesome to have gotten more of Alec’s spy history and just had gotten a high-stakes historical spy romance??
Overall, I was a fan of this author’s writing, these characters, would recommend the print over audio, and will definitely be around for this author’s next release!
OH!!!! And the miscommunication trope needs to DIE, thanks
