A quick synopsis supplied by Goodreads: A lady must have money and an army of her own if she is to win a revolution – but first, she must pit her wits against the wiles of an irresistible rogue bent on wrecking her plans…and her heart.
“A Rogue of One’s Own” by Evie Dunmore is the second book in the A League of Extraordinary Women series. This book focuses on Lady Lucinda (“Lucie”) and her role in the suffragist movement in England during the 1880s. She doesn’t want to get married and she wants women to be equally treated as men. Her old nemesis, Lord Tristan Ballentine, stands in her way. In this book, there is a truth to the saying “All’s fair in love and war”.
This book did not grab me like the first book in the series, as I thought it was a little long winded in its build up of the story. It took me a while to relate with the characters and really engage in what their purposes were. The last half of the book really picked up and saved the overall rating of this book. You’ll definitely have to read this one to find out of Lucie accomplishes everything she hopes to achieve in her role for women’s rights!
“A Rogue of One’s Own” by Evie Dunmore rating: 3 stars
