One of the best I’ve read.. This 👏🏼 book 👏🏼 is 👏🏼 amazing 👏🏼. I was instantly drawn in - loved the witty banter and that Sophie wasn’t some simpering girl. Loved that they kept fighting their feelings but kept acting on them. I loved this book and I’m going to be reading it again and again. Sarah knocked it out of the park with this one!

The Rogue not Taken. Loved this book I laughed out loud a few times, loved the adventure hot steamy love great book!

read in one sitting far past my bedtime story. Sarah MacLean opens her new Scandal & Scoundrel series with The Rogue Not Taken, a wonderful introduction to a new series, and a perfect introduction to historical romance for those new to the genre. Using all of the foundations to build a good story: well-developed characters, compelling storyline, adventure and humor, and never gives much downtime. Sophie is the youngest daughter in a family that seems to attract and covet scandal. Daughter of a coal-miner who was titled by the king, she is frustrated by the suffocating convention (and hypocrisy) of the Tonne. When she catches her brother-in-law in a compromising position, she’s fed up and their verbal confrontation ends in a koi pond, she is given the cut direct by all who saw her outburst. She dashes out of the gathering, but must find a way home without sulking in the family carriage. Kingscote, Marquess of Eversley and famed (if the scandal sheets have it right) for breaking up betrothals and then moving on happens upon Sophie hiding out in the garden as he, following his boots, climbed down the trellis. Seeing potential for escape, Sophie attempts holding a boot hostage for a ride back to Mayfair. Soundly rejected, she uses her wits, fearlessness and impulsivity to trade places with a footman, clothes and all. From here, the story mixes scandalous headlines, action, adventure, cross-dressing, robbery, bullets, pubic scuffles and arrangements that would turn proper society upside down as they gobbled up the stories. Using headlines that could be ripped from a current day tabloid, MacLean updates each new development with the best innuendos and rumor as fact. This story is warm, funny and engaging, and while some of the moments dip into silliness, MacLean fully embraces that lightness and joy, and the few somber moments are balanced nicely with the lighter moments, as characters are built, connections are forged as the story works to a conclusion that is inevitable to everyone BUT Sophie and King. Mixing secondary characters that add depth and the occasional tension-fraught moments, this was a read in one sitting far past my bedtime story, and I loved every moment of it. Both characters were so intransigent in their own self-made prisons, and so afraid to see what was standing in front of them, waving a big red flag and doing the jig. This just made the realizations sweeter and the ending more satisfying for everyone concerned. I received an eArc copy of the title from the publisher via Edelweiss for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.

Good. Worth the read Good not great, but it could have been just a little off the mark. I liked the characters however the plot was just okay. I'm hoping the next book in this series steps up the game a little.

Rogue. I truly hate I bought all three books. my goodness. She dragged this story on for far too long. Boring I couldn’t even get past the 1st page

Lovely and fun. Sarah’s reads are always fun, and this series is a delight!

Page turner. Read it in one sitting, great story. Don’t agree with the review that this series is a copy paste, almost deterred me. Normally don’t submit written reviews but really enjoyed this story. Off to read a Scot in the dark.

Fantastic story!. I love love love this book!! Great characters and storytelling. The development off the relationship between King and Sophie is just delightful and delicious! I couldn’t put it down. 😀

Awful. I couldn't believe this book was written by"The" Sarah MacLean, I keep on going back to the cover to make sure is was her name on it. I have read All her books. The main female character with her convoluted and uninteresting sisters drama, so Annoying!!! King the "hero",a real Ahole you will ever find in the romance world. The plot just so weak and ridiculous it make me angry,that I would love to have my money back!!!

Awesome story. Read this book in one day. Could not but it down. King and Sophie's story was everything you expect from Sarah MacLean. I am looking forward to the next book in this series. I think the A Scot in the Dark will don't disappoint. Can't wait for Aug.

Challenges. Such an interesting beginning to a relationship! Sophia Talbot defends her sister to her husband in an unusual way and all hell breaks loose. She meets Lord Eversley and the adventure begins. For two people who in the start of their joint adventure seem not to like each other the ending turns out excellent! There is humor, some twists and plenty of starts and and ending for romance! I recommend this book!

Such a fun read!. This book is delightful and a joy to read, despite Sophie’s status as the “unfun” sister! King and Sophie are seriously two of my favorite romance characters. One thing I love about this book is all of their banter, I feel so many books state that there’s banter and a deep connection but in this one I feel like I’m actually witnessing that. I reread this book regularly and still manage to laugh out loud. My only issue with this book is that it makes it very difficult for me to root for Sera and Haven, who have a later book. Seriously that man is trying to catch these hands.

Loved it!. Great story. Stayed up way too late to finish it!
