5.0 out of 5 stars Tremendous Finale for Company of Rogues , 30 Aug 2006
By M. Rondeau (West Springfield, MA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

Lady Mara St. Bride with the telling hair of the more adventuresome St. Bride's was ripe for an adventure. Sneaking out of the house to experience a gaming hell with an older family acquaintance she never thought to later find herself barefoot, wearing nothing but a chemise, and wrapped in a blanket while running through the streets after escaping unwanted amorous attentions. It was providence that the person who came to her rescue was none other than Lord Darius "Dare" Debenham - bosom friend of her brother Simon and a fellow `rogue'.

After the battle of Waterloo, Dare had been presumed dead. Instead he'd been rescued and kept prisoner of sorts by a bitter enemy of the founder of the `Rogues'. Mortally wounded he was initially given laudanum for the pain but was then given larger amounts than needed for a longer period of time to purposely turn him into an addict. Now two years later Dare, once one of the more carefree and boisterous of fellows, fought a tortuous battle to free himself from the `monster within'. The battle would be laden with many pitfalls, least of all rumors that Dare had cowardly fled the battlefield. As Dare fights his addiction, Mara appoints herself to be the one who brings the `old Dare' back into the light, redemption, and land of the living and loving.

*** Jo Beverley has always pushed the envelope with her edgy historicals and has concluded her "Company of Rogues" with one of the more powerful and compelling reads in a tremendous finale of this exceptional series. The last unmarried rogue, Dare Debenham's battle to overcome his addiction was extremely well done giving the reader an unforgettable experience of the ravages of addiction and the tortuous journey one needed to free oneself from the beast. Additionally, Mara was developed as an inspiring and outstanding heroine whose strength of purpose and determination in supporting Dare through his addiction and battling for his love made for an unforgettable heroine.

In a masterful stroke Beverley scores a big hit in bringing all the rogues back to rally around one of their own. Additionally, she shores up this impressive story by filling the pages with wonderful secondary characters and some poignantly emotional moments. Suffice it to say, Jo Beverley remains at the top of her game as one of the true Queens of Regency romance with this fabulous Rogue finale.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Beverley at her best, 6 Oct 2006
By S. Richards (Dorset, UK) - See all my reviews
This eagerly awaited finale in the Rogues series is Jo Beverley at her best.
She has the knack of creating a story in which the reader feels the emotions of the characters - you will suffer with Dare as he struggles to fight his dreadful addiction, but he always has the support of the other Rogues, and their loyalty and love is felt throughout. Lady Mara is convinced that he will succeed and determined to be by his side as he tries - if he will let her!
A truly lovely story which brought tears to my eyes!

2.0 out of 5 stars Same old, 3 Oct 2006
This book (the plot of which is detailed in the review below) was ok. Not great, not awful, just ok. The author seems to have relied on the opium addiction of the hero to give the book that little something extra. Frankly, sometimes it worked but others it really didn't. I'm not quite sure what it was about the book that turned me off. Maybe it was the lack of chemistry between the protagonists. One second, Dare was trying to get rid of Mara, the next he was begging her to wait for him. I actually put this book down at one point and started to re-read my last book, that's how bored I got half-way through! However, if all you want is a few hours of escapism & run-of-the-mill romance, then this book will do the trick. Just make sure that you have a good one lined up for after!
