Story
A decade ago, the Marquess of Bourne was cast from society with nothing but his title. Now a partner in London's most exclusive gaming hell, the cold, ruthless Bourne will do whatever it takes to regain his inheritance - including marrying perfect, proper Lady Penelope Marbury. A broken engagement and years of disappointing courtships have left Penelope with little interest in a quiet, comfortable marriage, and a longing for something more. How lucky that her new husband has access to an unexplored world of pleasures.

A lady does not smoke cheroot. She does not ride astride. She does not fence or attend duels. She does not fire a pistol, and she never gambles at a gentlemen's club. Lady Calpurnia Hartwell has always followed the rules, rules that have left her unmarried - and more than a little unsatisfied. And so she's vowed to break the rules and live the life of pleasure she's been missing. But to dance every dance, to steal a midnight kiss - to do those things, Callie will need a willing partner. Someone who knows everything about rule-breaking. Someone like Gabriel St. John, the Marquess of Ralston....

Publisher's Summary
Lady Sophie - Society Splash!
When Sophie, the least interesting of the Talbot sisters, lands her philandering brother-in-law backside first in a goldfish pond in front of all society, she becomes the target of very public aristocratic scorn. Her only choice is to flee London, vowing to start a new life far from the aristocracy. Unfortunately, the carriage in which she stows away isn't saving her from ruin. It's filled with it.
Rogue - Reign of Ravishment!
Kingscote - "King" - the marquess of Eversley, has never met a woman he couldn't charm, resulting in a reputation far worse than the truth, a general sense that he's more pretty face than proper gentleman, and an irate summons home to the Scottish border. When King discovers stowaway Sophie, however, the journey becomes anything but boring.
War? Or More?
He thinks she's trying to trick him into marriage. She wouldn't have him if he were the last man on Earth. But carriages bring close quarters, dark secrets, and unbearable temptation, making opposites altogether too attractive....

Loved the story and the narrator!
I personally loved the narrator; I thought she did an amazing job between characters and portraying the true emotions (I find many often overdue this). The story was lovely, as per usual for MacLean.

Great story. Awful narrator
The characters are charming and the story has many ups and downs. It is well written and witty. I struggled with the narrator who confuses accents... the Scottish was Irish and the rest was. ... breathy. The first 10 minutes were difficult because of the narrator but I'm glad I pushed past it.

Bantering Rogue
I've read and enjoyed some of Sarah MacLean's books previously so when this book came up on sale I had to listen. Although this one is not my favorite it still was entertaining and fun. I enjoyed the fast pace of this book, the adventure, and the bantering of the characters. I wasn't a fan of some unnecessary cruel dialog from the "hero" which only made him seem more like an immature bully. But, thankfully he worked out some issues and grew up a bit. 😊
Note: This book does have strong language and explicit sex.
Loved the narration of Justine Eyre. I've listened to other books she's narrated and I've never been disappointed. Everyone has different tastes when it comes to narrators so please listen to the audio sample before you purchase any book.
Overall, I liked this book and will be getting the next in this series. 😉

Any additional comments?
Pretty good story - good characters. Sophie and King suddenly meet and go for a wild ride for days. Sparks fly, tempers flare and romance ensues. Sophie's sisters are notorious in London. They were made ladies when their coal miner father "won" the title of Earle. Their behavior is not acceptable to the ton and they are ridiculed. Sophie is the youngest and least noticed of the sisters, but they are all called "soiled" and "dangerous". Sophie, who hates the aristocracy, snaps when her married eldest sister is embarrassed by her Duke husband at a summer party. Sophie takes drastic action against him resulting in her family being shunned by society. As she flees the party, Sophie runs into "King" who is in line for the title of Duke. It is a very bad meeting and gets worse - but fun to listen to. The performance is very good and I recommend this book for a fun listen. It is not great literature, but it is pleasant and entertaining. Kept my interest from the beginning to the end.

Freaking FAAAAANTASTIC
What an amazing book! I love how the story moved from one location to another and the creativity of the heroine in her garments during that time. She was brave and intelligent and interesting and a little spoiled and naive all at the same time. I can say I was NEVER bored at any single moment of this book and the push and pull between the H/H kept me glued to the book. A sigh worthy love match!

Brava, Sarah MacLean
Oh my this was fun!!! I just plain loved it.
Sarah MacLean is a genius. Her books maintain a very high quality and consistency of entertainment. She is one of the authors whose new work I pre-order as soon as it's available. This book was highly anticipated and well worth the wait.
I don't know if it was the characters, the story, the writing, the verbal sparring, or the humor that can be singled out as the best part of this book. To be honest, I was a bit concerned when I earlier read a synopsis of the book and that "K family" was mentioned. I try to avoid them at all times and I was afraid this would put them in a book I was very anxious to read. No worries! I should have trusted the author. Everything about this book was perfect!
Sophie and King are delightful! Their dialogue is witty and engaging. The secondary characters are intriguing and I hope we learn more about them. (Justine Eyre's portrayal of the Scottish Duke was a bit off - not like her normally impeccable work.)
The only thing wrong with this book is that it's over and we have to wait for the next one. This should be a great series. Brava, Sarah MacLean!

What disappointed you about The Rogue Not Taken?
I can’t believe that this is the same author that gave me one of my favorite books “9 rules to break when romancing a rake”. Her writing has been going downhill since that high-point and I think with this book she has hit rock bottom..
There was a very creepy scene when the hero asks the heroine to describe what she saw in the stables between a footman & maid. He keeps asking " what did you see Sophie?". I had a Silence of the Lambs moment.."what did you see Clarice?, then what did you do Clarice?" I half expected someone's face to get eaten.It made me feel a knot in my stomach. Especially when the hero is approx. 13 years older than the heroine and should have some more sophistication and smoother lines. He comes off as an immature jerk.
What do you think your next listen will be?
My next listen will be a good book, probably by stephanie laurenz.Nothing by this author
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
the narration was okay, but I had to give up on the story just after the 6 hour mark.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
disappointment and incredible sadnesss. .This book threw me back to the childhood trauma of my parent’s horrific marriage and subsequent divorce. The couple in this book are so filled with bile and vitriol that I kept having flashbacks to the worst of my youth. The only thing missing from the arguments was the female saying “ just ask for directions” and the male saying he knew where they were and not lost. This would have been all of the most awful times spent with my parents.
Even from the beginning the heroine says “ thank you for rescuing me” and the hero says” I didn’t rescue you ” to the point where the hero says “ I’m sorry.” And the heroine says “ you’re not sorry.”. This was just a series of conflict and argument for no reason .
Any additional comments?
I am over 50 and this book had me do something for the first time…take an alcoholic drink alone. My first shot came 5 hours into the book, when I should really have stopped listening and not taken a drink. The second shot came 6 hours into the book , when I realized that sipping slowly would be required. After reliving some of my emotionally scarring memories, I gave up and stopped when the heroine’s internal monologue identified the problem with this book “ I adored and loathed him”. Any book that has this much conflict in the characters can only be worse for the reader.

This isn't your normal English romance. This story is filled with a long journey with different twist and turns along the way. It dragged on sometimes, but other than that a OK listen. I am not sure if I want to read the next book in the series .

Up and down listen
The Rogue Not Taken
First of all the narrator gets the Scots accent wrong...it is totally Irish!
It started a little slow for me, but as soon as they got to the little town....it drug me in. Then it kinda lost me again. I love the supporting characters. John is great! But then they weren't in the story anymore.
It was very up and down for me. I liked both H&H ..but I didn't LOVE them. It was so frustrating at times. The heroine acted so strong...then had bad self esteem. The hero was kind of an ass...but then not. The ending made me mad..then it was good again, but it all seemed so rushed.
It was good..not great.. but I'm glad I listened. I liked the "story" but I just think it could have been written a bit better..or maybe it is just that some of the characters could have been tweaked a little, to make the overall book better.
