Description from the publisher:
Notorious rogue, Lord Nathaniel Kingsley always tended to leap without thinking.  Becoming a smuggler, adopting a sheep, getting engaged to Miss Patience Grey…

Patience has no need for a fiancé, or a husband.  For once in her life, she wants to prove she’s just as good as a man and she does not need Nathaniel Kingsley getting in her way.  With her brother injured, it is up to her to continue her family’s work…and that means tracking down a French spy and ensuring said spy will turn.

Unfortunately, no one believes she can do it alone.  Which is where Nathaniel comes in.

Nate is happy to be of service.  Why pass up the opportunity to repay an old friend, especially with a little intrigue along the way?  Find the spy, play escort to Patience, return home to continue smuggling.  Easy.

Or at least it would be if the stubborn Patience would let him do his job.  The breeches-wearing woman is determined to do it all alone and, he has to admit, there’s something quite distracting about a woman in men’s clothes.

Can he keep his attention from her long enough to complete their mission and persuade Patience to let him do his job and protect her?  A job he’s beginning to find he’s enjoying a lot more than he thought he would…

WHEN A ROGUE LOVES A WOMAN is the second book in the Rogues of Redmere series.  Though each stands alone, it is better to read them all and in the order of release



A fun and excellent story of spies in England during the Napoleonic Wars, I found the touch of true history regarding Napoleon’s mistress to be especially intriguing.  This book also got me to thinking more about women who didn’t want to dress in fashion and how they would be perceived in that era.  Patience (who doesn’t seem to have any) is a breath of fresh air in that regard.  She may be a woman, but she will roar… and fight, and run, and route out a spy for her country as well as any man!

As always, a Samantha Holt story is all about the journey to love with plenty of humor.  I love that about every story I have read from her and this one is no exception.
