About this ebook

Dear Reader,

Some people grow up wanting to be lion tamers or astronauts. I've always wanted to be a writer. One day, during a slow afternoon at my day job, I thought: What would I write? Inspiration struck . . . an earl who fell in love with a spy!

And thus Lady Rogue was born.

Christine "Kit" Brantley is masquerading as a boy because her mission is to spy on Alexander Cale, the Earl of Everton. It doesn't take long for Alex to see through her disguise. Who would mistake this enchanting, albeit cheeky, chit for a lad? Alex is determined to discover the real reason Kit is in London, but as he's dragged into one escapade after another, he finds himself succumbing to her charm and spirit.

I love this book, and I love the new package. In my mind it's a depiction of the first time Kit puts on a ball gown, and the way Alex Cale feels when he first sees her as a lady . . .

Ah, me, now I'm getting sentimental.

Enjoy!

Suzanne Enoch

P.S. Oh, and Lady Rogue also marks the debut of Mr. Francis Henning, who's made an appearance in every historical I've written since.

    Disappointing romance with too many improbabilities and too many historical goofs.

    In the introduction, Ms Enoch notes that this was her debut novel and it still holds a special place in her heart. That's as may be, but whether it's her first or her fifth, the weaknesses remain.

    Women-dressed-as-boys has become a tired, cliched HR narrative device. Perhaps it fits in with the stock ugly-duckling theme, in which a commoner with no hope of marrying an aristocrat turns out to be a blue-blood. In this book, Ms Enoch takes the conceit one or two steps further, and expects the reader to swallow the premise of a girl brought up in the disguise of a boy/young man, and pulling it off so well that debutantes swoon at this mysterious and handsome young bachelor. Unfortunately the idea is so outrageous that it stuck in my throat.

    Historical goofs abound. Like oh so many US writers, Ms Enoch seems to think that 'billiards' is played like pool, with numbered balls. She's wrong, billiards and pool are completely different games, something a quick web search would soon reveal. How come this goof wasn't caught at the editorial stage, or in later editions?

    Characters slip all too often into 20th century speech patterns, ruining the historical authenticity. Perhaps a more suitable tag for this book would be 'romantic fantasy'.

    Hard to rate this one. It really had me for about 2/3 of the way and then everything fell apart for me. ok, there was some action and rescuing and bad guys but it was all a mish mosh after awhile. Really 3.5. Or maybe a 3. Def not a 5. Whatever.
