Reluctantly Rogue

Royals Gone Rogue, Book 2

De: Erin Nicholas

Narrado por: Jason Clarke, Melissa Moran

A bodyguard, she's-off-limits, he falls first, secret relationship romance!

The gorgeous, brilliant woman I have dirty dreams about every damned night?
She's supposed to marry my best friend.
She's supposed to be queen someday.
She's off-limits.

But I can't walk away.
I'm supposed to protect her.
Maybe even be her friend.

I should not be lusting after her.
And I absolutely cannot fall in love with her.

But I can’t forget that one spontaneous, stolen kiss. I can’t stop taking care of her. I can’t stop wanting her secrets. I can’t get over her smiles, her laughter, her happiness. I can’t get over her.

So, while my head knows she can’t be mine, my heart doesn't care.

And if it comes down to choosing between her or... everything...I won’t have to think twice.

Reluctantly Rogue is Jonah and Linnea's story. It is book two in the steamy modern royal romance series Royals Gone Rogue. It is definitely best enjoyed after book one.

• Thoughts:
I freaking LOVED Jonah!!!! My hell, his mouth, and his inner dialog. I am a puddle on the floor!! Linnea is a gem!! I love her character and how she is bold and not shy around Jonah. They developed a friendship, and that is just so Swoon worthy. I thought this couple was perfect. I adore Jonah and his thoughts of wanting to protect and give her experiences, not just the steamy geez, get your head out of the gutter..... but those were on fire!!!! ... you're welcome! Now go read the book. I will say. I would definitely recommend what the author is saying and read book 1 first. I did not. And it took me a min to fill in gaps and characters. Amd the timeline. I think reading the first book would have helped.

•Narrator Thoughts:
This is duet style, and it was perfection. Melissa Moran is a new to me narrator, and I loved her. She did a great job, and I will be looking forward to more books that feature her as the narrator. Jason Clarke and accents is all I have to say.... I think that sentence sums it up beautifully..... and if you read my review. Dirty talking, Jonah.... again, you're welcome. I recommend this audio and storyline!!

Royally addictive 😍

🎧 Just finished the *Royals Gone Rogue* audiobook and WOW! Jason Clarke nails Jonah's alpha charm, while Melissa Moran (new fave!) brings Lennea's sass to life. Their chemistry is 🔥🔥🔥! Perfect blend of emotion, steam, and royal drama. Highly recommend for your next listen! #AudiobookLove #RoyalsGoneRogue #BookReview #JasonClarke #MelissaMoran

Jonah and Linnea

This is Torin's best friend and head of security and the one he was suppose to marry. First the narrators did a good job. Especially Jonah's character the deep masculine voice and when he would do his dirty talking swoon. I enjoyed this story more than the first one. I felt bad for Linnea it seemed that people thought she was a pawn, first she's suppose to marry the oldest prince but he left, then she was told she had to marry Torin and she just was willing to go with it because that is what she was told her whole life. Then Torin told her to date and kinda pimped her out hoping she would fall in love and would marry Torin. The more time she spent with Jonah she realizes what she experienced every time he was around meant she was into him and Jonah has been infatuated with her for a while. I love how Linnea always told the truth and saw nothing wrong with sharing things that would make some blush. Also when she found her voice and let some people have it.

4 stars

I was so happy to come back to Cara. This time around we get to learn more about Jonah and Linnea. Linnea is supposed to marry Jonah's best friend, Torin because of a deal made amongst their families. If Linnea marries Torin she will be queen someday. Jonah can't stop thinking about Linnea that she even appears in his dreams. Jonah decides that if it comes down to her and everything he won't think twice to have it all.

I enjoyed the sneaking around and the pining was so good. You could feel the longing. I thought Jonah and Linnea had great chemistry. I loved seeing Torin again. His friendship with Jonah was incredible to see. I loved how Jonah tried helping Torin in his situation despite having feelings for Linnea.

I loved the audiobook! Performed in duet narration by Jason Clarke and Melissa Moran. I was really surprised by Jason's ability to switch between accents effortlessly. One moment he has a British accent and next an Irish one. I loved all the accent work in this book. Melissa is a new to me narrator. I really enjoyed listening to her voice. She carried that bright personality of Linnea. Also her tone was light hearted and captivating.

Fu and entertaining with great narration

Reluctantly Rogue takes us back into The Royals Gone Rogue Series by Erin Nicolle/Erin Nicolas and after reading the first book I was excited for this one, well all I need to say is I wasn’t disappointed. If you love opposites attract, forbidden romance look no further.
Jason Clarke and Melissa Morgan did a wonderful job bringing this book to life. They were spot on with the humour and the passion and I was captivated by their every word.
This is soon to be queen Duchess Linnea and her bodyguard and best Jonah’s entertaining and at times emotional journey. From a very young age Linnea was told she will marry Torin her friend and Crown Prince of Cara but the problem is they have no feelings for each other apart from friendship. Her feelings are for her bodyguard and Torin’s best friend so what happens when she realises he feels the same…..
This story is told in dual point of view which makes it perfect for an audio book. The chemistry is sizzling, the banter is witty and there are plenty of laughs out loud moments but it’s the writing that makes this a great book. Once again this very talented authors has shown us why we love her.
