Once More, My Darling Rogue

De: Lorraine Heath

Narrado por: Helen Lloyd, James Adams

They are England's most eligible bachelors, with the most scandalous reputations. But for the right woman, even an unrepentant rogue may mend his ways . . .

Born to the street but raised within the aristocracy, Drake Darling can't escape his sordid beginnings. Not when Lady Ophelia Lyttleton snubs him at every turn, a constant reminder he's not truly one of them. But after rescuing her from a mysterious drowning, he realizes she doesn't remember who she is. With plans to bring her to heel, he insists she's his housekeeper—never expecting to fall for the charming beauty.

While Ophelia might not recall her life before Drake, she has little doubt she belongs with him. The desire she feels for her dark, brooding employer can't be denied, regardless of consequences. So when Ophelia's memory returns, she is devastated by the depth of his betrayal. Now Drake must risk everything to prove she can trust this rogue with her heart once more.

Gorgeous

I had lower expectations going into Once More, My Darling Rogue because I heard the hero took advantage of the heroine and the heroine was horrible. After reading it, I don’t see it that way. Both the characters had a lot of trauma that they were dealing with. Ophelia unable to remember made her able to open up and deal with what her uncle did to her. Drake should have told her sooner, but if he did, would have she trusted him in the end? Probably not. The character growth was gorgeous, the pacing on point, and I loved the how the story unfolded.

Great Read

Lorraine Heath is a wonderful storyteller. Enjoyed this book down to the last word. She always does the unexpected. Highly recommend!

Rogue series Highly Recommend

Enjoyed thoroughly every moment. Nice narration. Delightful turns, even the predictable ones. New favorite author.

Great listen

I really love dynamic between Olivia and Drake. I love how she becomes a better person and he realizes that he’s worth all the love he receives. This one does contain some trauma that Olivia has received, if you struggle with being triggered by sexual trauma, I suggest you listen with caution. In the end, it all works out and of course there’s a happily ever after.

Enjoyable

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I enjoyed the characters and the development of the story line.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I liked both Drake and Ophelia, but Ophelia was interesting because of her background that no one knew about. This affected her personality and how she treated others. There was a glimpse into Drake's character in the previous book, however I enjoyed his history as well. I also enjoyed the relationship Drake had with his adopted family.

What does Helen Lloyd and James Adams bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The rescue and the care given to Ophelia.
