Description from the publisher:
Unlike proper debutantes, Miss Dahlia Grenville is secretly Robin Hood in a bonnet. Her home for wayward girls has too many dependents and not enough donations. But just as she’s about to pull off the heist of the Season, she tumbles straight into the arms of the handsome detective who has sworn to deliver Mayfair’s mysterious thief straight to the gallows.

Highly principled Bow Street runner Simon Spaulding’s world is black and white. There’s no mastermind too clever, no criminal alive who can escape the hangman. Until he realizes the delightful young lady he’s been courting is a liar and a thief. Suddenly, his career—and his heart—are in peril. How can he bring her to justice when it means losing her forever?

Lord of Night  is the third book of a new series. In the Rogues to Riches historical romance series, Cinderella stories aren’t just for princesses… Sigh-worthy Regency rogues sweep strong-willed young ladies into whirlwind rags-to-riches romance with rollicking adventure.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LORD OF NIGHT is the third of six books planned for release in the Rogues to Riches series.  Each has a Cinderella theme with a unique twist. 

I’ll admit it.  I squee’d – out loud – when I saw that this one was available to start reading.  I couldn’t get to my NetGalley account fast enough!

Erica Ridley never disappoints in delivering a story that will twist, turn, and convince that two hearts are meant for each other.  How could the Bow Street Runner not fall for his own Robin Hood with curls?

This story was a little more quirky than most historical romances and probably not “historically accurate” for the times, but that’s okay in my opinion.  The story couldn’t have been written any other way to get where they needed to go.  Suspend your inner history Nazi and roll with it just once.  You’ll enjoy it.  I know I did.

I love this series.  I am looking forward to continuing with this great group of friends and family.

Note:  while I was given this book as a gifted ARC, through NetGalley, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
