Once the ton’s golden boy, the loss of his sight has left him a reclusive shell of man. His days of womanizing, horse racing and pistol shooting lost … pistol shooting lost forever.
Offered the chance to recapture a small part of his old life, he can’t refuse—even if it means accepting the shocking proposal of the infamous ice maiden, Anne Chessley.
Still reeling from her father’s death, Anne’s deepest wish is to avoid the hordes of fortune hunters who will soon be beating down her door. Proposing marriage to Cedric is an act of desperation, his unexpected acceptance a strange and wonderful dream.
His only stipulation: she must respond passionately and wantonly in his bed. Her agreement barely crosses her lips before he begins a sensual assault on the icy walls bitter secrets have built around her heart.
Yet even as they catch a glimpse of true happiness, betrayal is poised to sweep them away on opposing tides of danger.
Warning: Contains an outwardly aloof heroine with a secretly tender heart, a once-notorious rake who isn’t quite as rusty at seduction as he feared, and a band of rogues who join together to make sure happily-ever-afters do come true.

Another wonderful story
This is another wonderfully thought out story in a brilliant series. The plot is full of emotional turmoil and suspense. The characters are amazingly portrayed with the strength and determination required to overcome their fears and enemies. This is a great book that would be suitable for all those who love steamy historical romances.
This story, the 3rd in the League of rogues, is packed with surprises, humour and intrigue. You laugh out loud on one page, then cry openly on the next. Although the end is predictable, the way to come to it is not. Best start with the first book of the series to be sure to get all the subtleties coming along! Definitely a series I happily get back to!
I am obsessed with this series and I knew going in that Cedric’s story was going to break my heart. He lost his sight while saving his sister in the previous book and reading about how it altered his life as a wicked rogue nearly destroyed me. I wanted to hug him and hold him close, just as Anne did. Seeing him regain his fire and passion with her put my heart back together. He and Anne had been circling each other for years and it took both of them losing something special to them in order to bring them together. They had quite the fight both with each other and outside forces to find their happily ever after but it was a wonderful story and another great addition to this series.
This was book three in the series, so now I have to go back to read the first two. I loved the book, so I am certain that will not be difficult. The characters are interwoven through the series, but the story would stand alone well, too. The story line makes you want to read them all!
I read each book in this series. Each book had its own charming story. The first book in the series had me hooked and I had to read the rest of them. The women are strong characters.
Great page turner. Recommending to all my friends.
I had to go back and read the other books in the series as this book is #3. I really like the characters. Highly recommend!
I liked the series. This is one of my favorites of the book series.
I have loved every book in the series. I can’t wait for more to be released. I would recommend this to anyone who loves happy endings and sexy romance
Trite, tried to be sexy and mysterious but was just boring.
Great Hero and heroine afraid of real love and struggling along in their lives to get love. The friendships in this book are a bonus.
I ENJOYED THIS STORY
Fun
This book is one of an excellent series.
This is a type of romance that takes 21st century values and transfers them to 18th Century London. At one point in the story Anne says “You are not my Lord and keeper” to Cedric. In 18th century England, yes he was. The male nobility could do as they pleased with “their property”. That as how women were seen as property of their husbands. This is only one example, in this book, there are many other lapses in the story as well. I wish that Lauren Smith would do much more research into 18th and 19th century customs and mores. Then her stories could be better described as Historical Romances.
The “HEA” was a little too over-the-top. But it was a nice story.
Great read
Loved this book. This a new author for me…and I love finding someone new to read!
