Publisher's summary

RITA Award Winner, Historical Romance, 2014

A rogue ruined...

He is the Killer Duke, accused of murdering Mara Lowe on the eve of her wedding. With no memory of that fateful night, Temple has reigned over the darkest of London's corners for twelve years, wealthy and powerful, but beyond redemption. Until one night, Mara resurfaces, offering the one thing he's dreamed of . . . absolution.

A lady returned . . .

Mara planned never to return to the world from which she'd run, but when her brother falls deep into debt at Temple's exclusive casino, she has no choice but to offer Temple a trade that ends in her returning to society and proving to the world what only she knows...that he is no killer.

A scandal revealed . . .

It's a fine trade, until Temple realizes that the lady and her past are more than they seem. It will take every bit of his strength to resist the pull of this mysterious, maddening woman who seems willing to risk everything for honor...and to keep from putting himself on the line for love.

It was ok

As always Rosalyn was a wonderful narrator but the book wasn’t that great but now I know about the deadly duke

hot hot hot

Loved it kept you interested in it from the time it started to the time it finished

Good story but slow

I liked this book but it was slow at times. It was one that didn't bother me if I couldn't finish it quickly.

Great Book

intriguing story, little less in the action, but overall it was good read. Waiting for the next one.

Most Excellent !!

Beautiful story ! Temple so forgiving and loving ! Mara wishing to make amends ! Finally find HEA . Rosalyn Landor is the best narrator in the business!! Sarah Maclean scores again love her stories ! I can’t wait for Chases story in audio !!!! 💕

Fabulous story

Can one truly let bygones be bygones? It wont be as easy for me but somehow the hero in this book can. So even though the heroin destroys his life and for 12 years he is shunned not only by his family but by aristocracy, he manages to let love conquer all. The hero also had to chase the heroin continuously to have her give in to the love. That is the only part of the book I wish Sarah MacLean had addressed. It is too unlikely so instead she should have had the chasing reversed. Regardless, I truly enjoyed the book and this minor issue correction would have just been the icing on the cake. But yes! I still recommend this book.

Another Winner

This book follows the two previous as real winners.
Real page turner & Great story. I highly recommend.

Good story, good story, good, story...

The characters stayed strong throughout. It was a good closing to the heroes and heroines I have come to love. I wanted Georgianna and Duncan together from the start. I also wanted to know what crime Duncan committed (stealing something) when he was younger. The author did a great job of suspense building there! This story and the three previous did a great job of making my commute to and from home less stressful!

But like the first three books... the author is very repetitive-throughout the entire book. She is constantly reminding us of why the couple can't be together and what their greatest personal fears are (by constantly repeating their thoughts). The story is REALLY good but you could cut the length by about a 1/3 if you deleted all the repetition.

Also, this story has a different narrator than the first three. She was a good narrator. It's just after three books, you know the characters and their voices. So on this last book it was sometimes confusing who was talking (as all the characters from the previous books are in it). And the characters felt "off" somehow because their voices didn't match what I was used to. Again it is a good story, good series, but lots of repetition.

Great story, great narrator, vexatious heroine

Sarah MacLean is such a talented story teller. She's also really good at developing characters. She's so good that annoying characters are VERY annoying. When that annoying character is the heroine, it's hard to avoid her. Regardless, this was my third (or 4th) time to listen to this book and I enjoyed listening...almost every time.

ANOTHER GOOD LISTEN!

Thank you! Looking forward to #3. Sarah's words and Rosalyn's read are a very good combination.
