A Rogue's Rules for Seduction: A Sweeping Historical Romance of Star-Crossed Lovers and Rekindled Passion (Last Chance Scoundrels, 3)

The most riveting historical regency romance story I have ever read where two people had a second chance to travel on their journey to find true and lasting love

It was fun to get inside Dom's head, at long last, and find out why he jilted Willa at the start of the trilogy. They really were a well-matched pair, especially in the bedroom. It may seem odd, for a regular romance reader, but I left off a star because there was too much bedroom time. Mainly, it was too compressed and was almost like an overly spicy novella shoved into a normal romance book. Good stuff, just an overdose. Willa was a fun character, a bit like Celeste in breaking societal expectations, but more outward. I enjoyed her journey. I liked that the book stayed in one setting and we saw a decent amount of our other two happy couples. Also, the games were entertaining!

After Dominic Kilburn left Lady Willa Ransom at the altar, she vowed never to reveal how badly she was hurt. Following a year abroad, Willa wants to move on with her life, so she accepts an invitation to a house party. When dark secrets from his past surfaced right before his wedding, Dom knew he didn’t deserve Willa. So, he bolted. To escape the memories of all he lost, Dom heads to a friend’s estate on an isolated Scottish isle. Yet one of the other guests is the very woman who haunts his every thought. Thrown together by family and friends, Willa and Dom try to resist the fiery pull between them. Soon their attraction explodes. Can these lovers find their happily ever after, or will everything detonate a second time? This was an absorbing historical romance filled with interesting and flawed characters looking for their happily ever after. I could feel the romance and the steam between Willa and Dom. Their sexy interactions kept me turning the pages. But I felt there were too many sexual encounters. Two chapters were nothing but sex between Willa and Dom. I felt it took away from the plot. The overuse of cursing took away from my enjoyment of the story. I think as a reader the cursing was a bit excessive. Other than that, I enjoyed this historical romance. Thanks to Avon and Harper Voyager for the opportunity of reading this advanced reader's copy. This review is my unbiased opinion.

I loved this story! Dom had broken Willa's heart when he left her at the altar and had made himself miserable. They both end up at a houseparty by the machinations of her brothers and his sister. As the party progresses, they find out who the other one really is. They realize if they had married then they would have been miserable. Are they ready to take that final step and marry?

The first two books of the delightful Last Chance Scoundrels trilogy, chronicled the stories of the two younger Ransome brothers, Kieran and Finn, after they helped their best friend, Dom Kilburn, jilt their sister at the altar. Think about that, helping their best friend jilt their beloved sister, Willa. The three thought they were doing the right thing because Willa and Dom seemed so unhappy in the days leading up to their wedding. As punishment for the jilting, Dom’s immensely rich father and the the brothers' father, an Earl, required all three men to be married within the year or else they would lose all financial support from their families. This was serious business, even ignored spares weren’t supposed to work. In A Rogue’s Rules for Seduction the two brothers and their wives schemed to get both Dom and Willa to a house party on an island in the Inner Hebrides owned by their friend Oliver Longbridge. A house party designed for fun and naughtiness, far the strictures of London society. A Rogue’s Rules for Seduction is a most satisfying end to the trilogy. The tortured Dom has been the most intriguing character from the very beginning, his and Willas’s story does not disappoint. How can you not love a heroine whose first appearance upon a page is introduced by a rather shocking (from a woman during Regency times) word. But, Willa has a good reason to be surprised and dismayed at the appearance of Dom at the same house party on the desolated Scottish island. After…
