Her only choice is to flee London, vowing to start a new life far from the aristocracy. Unfortunately, the carriage in which she stows away isn’t saving her from ruin . . . it’s filled with it.Rogue’s Reign of Ravishment!Kingscote, “King,” the Marquess of Eversley, has never met a woman he couldn’t charm, resulting in a reputation far worse than the truth, a general sense that he’s more pretty face than proper gentleman, and an irate summons home to the Scottish border. When King discovers stowaway Sophie, however, the journey becomes anything but boring.War? Or More?He thinks she’s trying to trick him into marriage. She wouldn’t have him if he were the last man on earth. But carriages bring close quarters, dark secrets, and unbearable temptation, making opposites altogether too attractive . . .

"There were way too many plot points to keep up with in this book. The stealing of the carriage, the gunshot wound, the death of the duke’s first love, the housekeeper being in love with the duke’s father, etc. It was a drag to get through parts of this book. Also, there are just too many sisters, their names all start with the letter “S”, ie. Seline, Seleste, Sesily, Seraphina. It was too much to keep track of which sister was which and which sister was with who. The sex scene at the end was okay. To be honest I enjoyed their banter more than anything, but like I said, the book drags on for too long and a few plot points could have been left to the way side if I’m honest. <br/>"
"I seriously adore Sarah MacLean's writing. Her stories feel so real to me and this book had me feeling all the feels. I legit was pouring tears trying to pretend everything was okay at one point. I love the back and forth banter of Sophie and King. <br/><br/>I think the one thing that really irked me was the treatment of Sophie by her family.... It left me feeling disgusted and sad since she fights so strongly for them."
"I really enjoyed the first three Bridgerton books"
