Publisher's summary

Lord Michael Sutherland, Viscount Ellersleigh, is infamous among the ton for his powers of seduction and his prowess as a lover.

Running from his own ennui and a lover who fancies herself his future wife, Michael retreats to the country and a crumbling, haunted castle won in a game of chance...a castle occupied by an innocent and oh-so-tempting young woman, Miss Abbigail Barrows.

But country life proves to be anything but quiet. At a debauched house party, Michael finds himself confronted with an unfortunate quandary: Marry Abbigail, an innocent, or hang for murder.

Residing at Blagdon Hall, Michael's faced with the dilemmas of seducing his new wife, who seems to be impervious to his charm, and unraveling the mystery of Blagdon Hall's resident ghost and the nefarious goings-on at the neighboring estate.

A steamy hot story with a intriguing dark twist!🔥♥️

Redemption of a Rogue is the second book in Chasity Bowlin’s Dark Regency series and it’s definitely a intriguing delightful deliciously hot story! I fell in love with Michael’s character in the first book and was delighted to add his story to my kindle! Michaels book brings a mixture of tortured memories from his childhood into this intriguing story full of mysterious evil murderous mayhem, ghosts and the ultimate unexpected love of his life! Michael wins more than a rundown country estate with a scary as hell resident ghost and a couple of ancient servants in a card game, it also happens to be the home of Abigail Barrows. With both her parents dead, the home had legally passed to her rotten to the core cousin. Michael has found himself in a situation he’d always made sure to stay clear of until the moment he meets the lovely Abigail! I absolutely loved everything about this audiobook from the steamy hot characters, the ghost and this very exciting storyline that has so many twists and turns I’d not expected! It’s very well written and so dang hot I couldn’t even pause it till the end! Now I’m super excited about the next one in this Dark Regency series! Narrator Lillian Yves does a fantastic job with this audiobook bringing all these characters to life!

Delicious!

Lord Michael Sutherland comes out the winner of a game and finds himself the new owner of a castle. It's in bad shape when he arrives, and also was not empty. Meet Miss Abigail Barrows. When she's forced to leave the estate she goes to a nearby estate. Someone is murdered and this begins a daunting and sizzling ride for Michael and Abigail. Danger all around, crazy feelings....

Michael and Abigail are both complicated and very independent, and makes for a good match. These characters were really fun to listen to.

This is chock full of steamy romance, thrills, mystery, intrigue, history, with a splash of paranormal.
Makes for an exciting listen!

Very well-written steamy romance and loved the narration, all in all a great story, enjoyed it :)

Of Ghosts, Romance, and Steamy Encounters

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Romance at its steamiest is at the heart of this Regency book. The heroine is supposed to be an ingenue, but in fact she knows more about the erotic side of love that she dares to show. What she doesn't know, Lord Michael Sutherland is more than willing to teach her. The darkness of the period is represented not only by a willingness to murder at will in pursuit of dark magic powers, but also by the depravity of sexual practices performed by piers of society. The plot to uncover the secrets of a string of murders and attacks on the protagonists has some suspenseful moments and is interesting enough. The writing is pleasant and the interpretation by the narrator very well performed. A good Regency romance with all the twists and turns we expect in the mysteries genre.

Disappointed

I struggled to finish. At times I slightly lost track of who was the character talking if it was female.

The story started of quite mysterious and wicked. I thought it would be revealed why things happened and whether there was any reasoning as to why it happened the way it did. Did this magic work or not. We shall never know.

I'm frankly disappointed.

good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Good story however

I enjoy story but absolutely hate narrators voice. This takes place in England not New England or ny.

A historical 5 star

This is my first Chasity Bowen audio . She writes heart full historical stories and this was no different.

Hero is Michael a tittled gentleman . Michael is a Viscount. And because he thinks his title entitles him , he likes to gamble . On one game he gets lucky and wins an estate .
Lord Michael has no choice but to leave London . He decides to go to the estate. Once he reaches the estate , Michael has one unpleasant task of removing a former resident. Michael has to tell Abby to leave . It’s his property now. He has an idea of where Abby should go.
Grab it and find out how and where Abby goes and how she takes it

The narrator was good . Lilian had a strong clear voice. . All the characters were told perfectly

Exciting!

A little too dark for me - but I didn't stop reading!! Enjoyed reading / listening!

liked this one

I liked this one It's a nice combo of historical romance and a paranormal twist. I recommend this series

Can't listen to Liian Yves anymore!!!

I had to stop listening to this narrator during the first chapter. I suffered through her reading of another Chasity Bowlin book and when I saw that she also narrated this'd book, The Redemption of a Rogue, I had to stop listening! I want going to try to return both this book and the other book she narrated, to Audible! Ugh! I will be careful to avoid any books she narrates!
