She was looking for adventure… Lady Rosamunde Stanley just never expected in the form of a kidnapping. Well, an almost-kidnapping. The dastardly man only went and took the wrong woman! But she soon discovers the dark, handsome man is not quite the terrible rogue she thinks him to be and she decides to put his experience to use. Her uncle has gone missing and no one believes her when she says … when she says he’s in trouble. Can she persuade Russell to help?
Russell might have kidnapped her, but he has no intention of keeping her. Even if the heat between them is driving him out of his wits and her crazy family makes him long for things a battle-hardened orphan like him should never want.
Their societal divide isn’t the only reason to keep his distance. Rosamunde is a bloody knife-carrying, picklock-wielding madwoman.
A far too appealing madwoman…
He’s not the only one struggling. Rosamunde is finding it just as difficult to fight the attraction, despite knowing it is most likely her over-active imagination leading her down this path. Somehow, she must keep her head around the most exciting man she’s ever met.

This book was a very enjoyable and entertaining read with good character and storyline development that had me hooked from the very beginning! The fun dialogue, chemistry and engaging interaction between Rosamunde and Russell made this book a very delightful book to read!
STEALING THE HEIRESS is the second book in The Kidnap Club series and this time we deal with Marcus. He was the one that had worked for his money and pulled himself up by his bootstraps. He still had a few rough edges and was well aware he wasn’t as suave as the other two. Still, when he meets Lady Rosamunde, she doesn’t seem to mind – even if he did kidnap the wrong person.
This was a great continuation to the series, and I loved the little cameo from Nash about how he and Grace were getting on. This was a completely different story so it could be read as a standalone but really, why do that?
A great addition to the series that I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending.

I liked this one much better than the first in the series. I’m not sure exactly what made it better. Think I just enjoyed these characters from the beginning. I was happy to see they got their happily ever after.
