The final book in the #1 bestselling Regency romance series!Lewis Knight left behind his life as the son of nobleman years ago. The rough, scarred man is quite content to use his brute force and bad reputation to help the Earl of Redmere with his smuggling—a ruse to aid the war effort. Knight doesn’t care too much about the reasons behind the subterfuge, so long as he gets paid.And stays busy … stays busy enough to forget his past for good.
That’s not so easy, however, when he’s forced to return home. And thanks to the earl’s meddling, he’s accompanied by the woman who plagues his thoughts far too often…
Louisa has been too busy running her inn to think too much about the dark, brooding Knight. Even if she does steal the occasional glance at those broad shoulders. However, when a man arrives in Cornwall with lifechanging news and Louisa’s inn is threatened, she must investigate. With Knight’s help, she digs into this stranger’s past and stirs up more danger than she thought possible.
Now that Knight is driven to protect her, the barriers between them feel harder than ever to keep in place. Somehow, she keeps working her way under his unyielding exterior. But Knight knows he’s not worthy of a woman like Louisa—not while his past shadows his every move.

A series that I have enjoyed to read. This is the fourth and final book. It is well written and has a nice storyline and plot. It is true to the time period in which the story takes place. I like it when authors have taken their time to research.
A Hero that is scared from his childhood and time in the war. He is broken and starts to work as a smuggler. Heroin is a normal young widow who own an Inn. Knight often comes to this Inn and has a crush on Louisa the owner. But his scares makes him think a lot. Can she tear down his walls? Can he give her what she seeks?
A sweet and enjoyable read that has likeable characters who develops nicely through the story.
Recommendable fun and quick read.
The Napoleonic wars have made smugglers out of the men in Cornwall, including Lewis Knight. A veteran of the war, Knight has drifted into smuggling for lack of anything else to do. Because of his large size and strength, Knight hauls most of the cargo from ship to hiding place. He works with Red, Nate, and Drake, who have been subjects of the other books in this series. When Knight learns that his father has died, he plans to leave. What he doesn’t plan for is Louisa Carter traveling with him for part of the journey. It is inevitable that a romance develops between Knight and Louisa. This book was an easy read, moved at a fast clip, and had just enough mushy parts.
I enjoyed this book & the main & secondary characters were wonderful – once I started, I couldn’t stop reading until “the end”. Two people, a son who was thrown from his home at a young age, to make his own way, by his cruel viscount father & a young widow who who was married to a older man who needed help in his inn – they have had an attraction to one another for years but never acted on it or gave a hint of interest. That was until a mutual friend, the Earl of Redmere, stuck his nose in their business & they were forced to spend time in a carriage going north to Scotland. Our heroine is in danger of losing her business, our hero has become a viscount after his father left the title buried in debt, there are danger travelling, threats to murder the heroine but most of all there was chemistry between Knight & Louisa. Their HEA was filled with obstacles, some not of their doing but the biggest obstacles were the denial of feelings for each other & past guilt. A romantic & wonderful read!
Well, what’s a rogue got to do with is still my question as the story really didn’t have a rogue. I like the story and it was fraught with problems that kept you reading.I look forward to reading more in the series and seeing if they are more aptly named!
Poor character development, thin storyline, and over all not particularly well written
Smugglers, love, scars.
The characters were easy to fall in love with. Samantha Holt is one of my favorite writers and this series of characters/books didn’t disappoint. Highly recommend as a feel good read.
Enjoyable light Regency romance with villains and heros
good for this genre
This just didn’t grab me like so many others of it’s ilk have. I got about halfway through the story before I decided I was fine not finishing it.
A powerful romance, well worth the read!
The great plot was well written and the characters were so well developed that as I turned each page the chemistry between the characters kept me totally hooked until the very last page!

This was a fast and enjoyable read. I found I couldn’t put it down once I started. Knight and Louisa had some serious sexual tension and thanks to the slightly meddling Earl of Redmere the two are forced to together in a carriage on a journey across England. Add in some danger and threats to the lady’s life and livelihood and sparks are sure to fly. Knight, the disavowed only son of a cruel viscount, is forced to return to the family estate upon his father’s death to settle debts. Louisa, the widowed owner of an inn, is forced to take a similar journey when a newcomer to the village threatens her entire existence. Once the two are thrown together by the Earl, Knight cannot help but come to the aid of a lady in need, especially as she is a lady he has long admired from afar.
I really enjoyed this one and I would highly recommend it for a quick diversion!
I received an ARC via Booksprout. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

What’s a Rogue Got To Do With It book 4 by Samantha Holt Rogues of Redmere. Love the characters. A story full of mystery, scandal, romance, and adventure.
My free opinion
Will the last Rogue of Redmere find love? Lewis Knight holds a lot of secrets and is scarred inside and out. Knight is large, scarred, stubborn, scary, and lonely. Although he is attracted to Louisa, he doesn’t believe he is worthy of her. Kind, caring, and tough, Louisa disagrees. When Knight inherits his title and Louisa is challenged for her inn, they travel together (with a little manipulation by the Earl of Redmere) to take care of the situations. Along the way, they try hard to fight their feelings. Can these two overcome the doubts and find their HEA? Maybe.
As with the rest of this series, Knight and Louisa’s story has an interesting cast of characters and a tale full of adventure, intrigue, danger, and romance. Well written and fast paced it is the perfect way to wrap up the Rogue’s story. I recommend the book and the series.

This is a intriguing and entertaining story. Knight is stubborn, insecure, tough and lonely. Louisa is tough, caring and generous. Knight is a smuggler who has been physically and emotionally scarred by his father and the war. Louisa helps the smuggling ring by telling them when the revenuers were around, and also by storing goods for them. Knight has been attracted to Louisa from the start, but he thinks that he’s too scarred for a woman to be attracted to him. Louisa finds Knight intriguing. When they end up on a trip together, things get personal and they both try to fight their growing feelings. The storyline is interesting and the characters are fascinating and the end is very sweet.
