Publisher Description
Not for nothing is Gabriel Sinclair known as the King of Hearts. His wit beguiles, his charm seduces, and he's never met a woman he couldn't captivate. He's at home on the sea but nowhere else. As for family? He has seen enough madness in his own to last a lifetime. He shuns hopeless causes, deeper emotions, and any whiff of permanence.
Widowed Louisa Peabody tolerates no man's touch. Her past has shown her men are seducers and abusers. Accordingly, she devotes herself to aiding abused women. After she accidentally saves Gabriel's life, he agrees to help her stage a daring rescue. But it's a devil's bargain: Can she protect herself from that wild, reckless fire in his eyes?
Maitland's Rogues: Andrew Maitland's group of daring English rogues risk all for their country. Hardened and deadly, they have no use for love—until it ensnares them...

Slow burn
This historical romance is set in England and is the first time I have read anything by this author. I liked her writing style and thought the plot was interesting. Both of the main characters have a history that had resulted in pain and emotional withdrawal. This is a slow burn romance but one that is worth waiting for.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
