Fifth in the series. Dynamic read with verve!
A Remarkable Rogue (Lords of the Armory #5) by Anna Harrington
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ok this was both terrific, and occasionally terrifying. Captain Nathaniel (Nate) Reed of the King’s Horse Guards, natural son of Earl of St. James much to his dismay (there’s a history there!), dubbed the hero of the battle Toulouse after Waterloo.
Flushing out the leader of Scepter is his game, the widow, Baroness Sydney Rowland is his aim. Obviously a member of that revolutionary movement, why else her involvement with persons of interest who’ve had their life threatened? Except Sydney has a very good reason for her actions and being caught in the home office. Not that she’s ever going to expose them, ever!
This story has its own momentum and fascinating spin around the central theme of exposing the Scepter villains. The title is matched in its tension, unique storyline, and fascinating attraction between the lead characters. The frisson between the Captain and the widow is divine.
Another taut tale about the members of the Armory, a reminder of their mission and their battle with Scepter:
“—The Armory, Where Evil Fears to Tread." A place for ex soldiers, a sanctuary, where these loyal men will, "band together and use [their] skills to shut down Scepter and to help those in need, wherever they might be, no matter the threat." (from An Inconvenient Duke Lords of the Armory #1)
