Rogue Most Wanted

The Cavensham Heiresses #5

by Janna MacGregor

Publisher ~ St. Martin's Press Romance

Genres ~ Historical Romance

There’s one creed all Cavensham men subscribe to: they fall in love completely and decidedly. But what happens when the woman you fall in love with swears she'll only marry you as a last resort? Rogue Most Wanted is the next book in the sparkling, romantic Cavensham Heiress series by Janna MacGregor.

SHE NEEDS TO MARRY SOMEONE

Lady Theodora Worth needs to marry fast in order to keep her estate. It’s been her heart and home for years, and she’ll not lose it to anyone. There’s just one problem—as a woman who was raised in isolation by her grandfather, she’s completely incapable of pouring a cup of tea, never mind wooing a man. She’ll need a little matchmaking help from her sprightly next-door neighbor in order to find a convenient husband…

IT’S JUST NOT GOING TO BE HIM

Lord William Cavensham’s heart was broken years ago, and since that day he vowed to never love again. But his spirited Great Aunt Stella is determined he’ll marry or not inherit a single penny from her. And she’s got just the woman in mind—her beautiful and completely hapless next-door neighbor, Thea…

Thea and Will agree there’s no sense in marrying each other. Will wholeheartedly believes he’s incapable of love, and Thea refuses to marry the first man she’s practically met. But Will may be the rogue Thea wants the most after all…

I am always amazed at how powerfully author Jann MacGregor portrays her characters creating them multifaceted and fully believable. Her development of her storylines is handled with extreme detail leading the reader into her fantasy world of characters.

Lady Theodora Worth has my complete compassion for how she is thrown to the wolves with no training but lots of desire to save her home and the people who depend on her. Her honorable character is something any woman would be proud to exemplify. There are times my stomach tightened when she was put in uncomfortable positions and the author's portrayal of the actions and feelings at that moment are done to perfection.

Lord William Cavensham's character is basically a sweetheart. I am quite sure he would roll in his grave to hear me describe him as such but honestly, he is one of those heartthrob nice guys. Watching his character metamorphosis from being stuck on the past to moving into his future is not without some drama. It was actually quite amusing watching his light bulb go on.

As always there has to be some villain or trouble maker and Ferr-Colby fits the bill. You can feel his sliminess rolling off the pages but this slippery personality also makes him a tough opponent.

5 STARS for the meticulous orchestration of Will and Theo's personal growth in their lives.

Received an advance reader copy in exchange for a fair review.
