Roscoe, the male hero of Stephanie Laurens' "The Lady Risks All" made brief appearances in two of her earlier novels (conveniently excerpted after the novel for your review). With a bit of different premise, the story combines the noble rake with the gambling entrepreneur, and although the bulk of t...

6/3 - Kind of reminds me of her spin-off Cynster trilogy that started with Viscount Breckenridge to the Rescue, as the first 1/2 of the book features a carriage chase, although it differs from the Cyster Sisters trilogy in that this time the heroine is chasing the bad guys instead of being kidnapped...
"As for the way he moved, and that drawl . . . quite what manner of man he was she wasn’t sure, but a single glance into that chiseled face, at those well-set dark eyes steadily regarding her, at his patriarchal nose and sharply cut jaw, was enough to assure her that he wasn’t manageable.

I am very late to the Stephanie Laurens party.
