Publisher's summary

He yearns to escape his past....

After the death of his fiancée, Kai Ramsay left Scotland to roam distant lands. He has searched ancient ruins, collected priceless antiquities, and escaped certain death after being imprisoned as a spy during the Napoleonic War. Ramsay has lived on the edge of danger for years — but everything changes the day a letter arrives for him from Scotland....

She’s determined to protect her future....

Signy Matheson has dedicated her life to the people of Scotland’s remote Thorsay Islands. With a fiery spirit and agile mind, she is a faithful ally to the aging laird. But now their leader is near death, and Signy must summon his successor at once.

It’s time for Kai Ramsay to come home....

Together, they discover ancient treasures and disturbing attraction....

When Ramsay returns to Thorsay, he’s shocked to find that Signy has blossomed into an alluring beauty, and a force to be reckoned with. Their complicated past interferes with their unspoken desire as they work together for their people. Until a wild storm sparks first passion, then unexpected danger when a treasure trove left by their ancestors comes to light....

The "Rogues Redeemed" series finale

"Rogues Redeemed" has been a most enjoyable series start to finish. In the first book, Putney included just enough backstory to give shape to the series. In that first one and in each successive book, she touched on their shared history but with very skillful light mentions. She masters balance, hits that delicate knife edge between spending too much time recapping what readers of the other books in the series already know versus someone who happened to get Laird first before the others. Not every author has that skill; I suspect that's perhaps one reason why many choose to only write standalones.
Very good fun, well worth the read!

Extraordinary, loved it!!

I love how MJ weaves her characters. I feel as if I’ve built a relationship with the cast within the 5 books. Heart warming and intriguing.. awesome finale. I feel so at home when I listen to BC’s narration. Thanks so much for the entertainment ladies!

Wonderful ending

Who doesn't love a happy ending? This book represents an end to a lovely series and the story within represents a happy ending for all the Rogues Redeemed. AND the bad guy gets paid back - literally - in the end. Hip, hip, hooray.
Beverly A Crick did an outstanding job in narrating this book. Her Scottish brogue is spot on and she added verve to the characters and their dialogue. Thank you ladies for a wonderful listening experience.

Good story

A bit of a second chance, but not exactly. I like that this ties the series together. It was very sweet and made me tear up a few times.
