About this ebook

To all of London, Sebastian Traherne is a pretentious fop who prizes his tailor over his dukedom. When a prickly Welsh miss arrives at his crumbling castle one gloomy night, she upends his world—and every principle he holds dear. Worse, she believes in a silly fairy tale known as True Love.

Gwynna Owen might be the last true Princess of Wales, but she needs this very English duke to claim her legacy and vanquish a tyrant. When Sebastian quickly sees through her boy’s disguise, she must plead her case with only a rusty dagger—and sapphire eyes that conjure what he most wishes to avoid.

Book 2 in the Maitland's Rogues series of Regency historical romances featuring daring rogues who risk all for their country during the Napoleonic wars. Hardened and deadly, they have no use for love -- until it ensnares them.

Despite the writing being pretty good, I had a problem getting into the story. With Sebastian being married to Elizabeth, I didn’t see the point of contemplating a romance with Gwynna Owen and would find the cheating distasteful. There were many secondary characters but I am not sure they added value for me. I was amused at Sebastian quickly discerning Gwynna’s boy disguise, but that quickly fizzled. There were good parts among the ho-hum parts, but on the whole, I just wasn’t invested in the characters.

I really like this new "Maitland's Rogues" story. It's as good as the previous one "King of Hearts" maybe even better. It's more than one story! It's an interesting well written historical romance that a little different. I liked the characters and the overall story. It's captivating, intriguing and definitely entertaining!

Lord Shallow is the second book in the Maitland's Rogues series and is a different kind of regency historical romance. The storyline is interesting and the characters are well depicted. With secrets, intrigue, betrayal, and a chance for romance, this is an enjoyable read. I read and reviewed this book with no obligation.
