Now I know why so many people gush over this historical romance series. This is a phenomenal read, one that was totally unexpected for me and I highly recommend it!
Rating: ★★★★★
​Release Date: August 28, 2018
Genre: Historical Romance
Series: Victorian Rebels #6 (can stand alone)

Pages: 336 pages
Format: eBook. ARC. 
The bravest of heroes. The brashest of rebels. The boldest of lovers. These are the men who risk their hearts and their souls—for the passionate women who dare to love them…

He is known only as The Rook. A man with no name, no past, no memories. He awakens in a mass grave, a magnificent dragon tattoo on his muscled forearm the sole clue to his mysterious origins. His only hope for survival—and salvation—lies in the deep, fiery eyes of the beautiful stranger who finds him. Who nurses him back to health. And who calms the restless demons in his soul…

A LEGENDARY LOVE
​

Lorelai will never forget the night she rescued the broken dark angel in the woods, a devilishly handsome man who haunts her dreams to this day. Crippled as a child, she devoted herself to healing the poor tortured man. And when he left, he took a piece of her heart with him. Now, after all these years, The Rook has
returned. Like a phantom, he sweeps back into her life and avenges those who wronged her. But can she trust a man who’s been branded a rebel, a thief, and a killer? And can she trust herself to resist him when he takes her in his arms?

Read my Book Review

Release Date: August 28, 2018
Genre: Historical Romance
Actual Rating: 5 stars

WOAH!!! This book was so damn good that I picked it up in one sitting and read it all the way through to the end. Normally, I tend to stay away from historical romances because I feel like they are long and drawn out, but this one was so interesting that I couldn't help but fall head over heels in love with it! Kerrigan Bryne, where have you been all my life!?! This book literally has it all. It's romantic, suspenseful, and has a cast of characters I won't forget! Even better? The hero (who has murderous qualities) is a PIRATE. Had I known this book was about a pirate I probably wouldn't have picked it up because that just doesn't interest me (normally). But I am so glad I did because I LOVED it. If you are a historical romance fan you need this book in your life! I am now in the process of adding every book in this series to my cart on amazon- that's how good it is!

In this story, readers will meet Lorelei and Rook. The two met 20 years prior after Rook was left for dead and Lorelei saved him from the ashes. But too soon he was pulled away from the one person in the world he found solace and love with. Fast forward 20 years and Rook is intent on getting back his one true love. Only this time, he is a dark and brooding soul and will do anything to get her even if that means kidnapping her from her own wedding.. 

The journey to find their way back to one another isn't an easy one, and there are times of discomfort, hate, and remorse for both of them. But once the demons are shed and the two get to know each other and a deeper level there is no stopping their love for one another. 

Historical romance lovers and even those who tend to shy away from the genre should definitely pick up this book! It is a whirlwind! I loved it to pieces and can't wait to catch up on the series and meet some new Victorian Rebels to fall in love with.
