David Reece is one of London’s most reputable rogues; he is irresponsible, reckless and a ladies man. When his brother turns over his estate to him to oversee while he is away, bets circulate through London to see how long it will take David to wipe out the family fortune. David is on the stage that is going to London when it is robbed, he is devastated that he lost his family ring and makes a plan to set a trap for the robbers in London. When he catches one of the thieves he discovers that deep down she is a woman that matches his desires and needs from life. He is clearly torn when he wants to seduce her, as his past would dictate he do. But in a strange twist of fate, David is accused of being the “Black Duke” robbing the stages on route to London. Together they devise a plan that hopefully will clear his name and save her from the gallows.

What A Rogue Desires is Caroline Linden’s third novel; it is a charming and engaging story that held me captive while reading it. Vivian is a heroine that is not noble by birth but does contain morals that keep her torn through out most of this novel. David is a rogue whose character evolves in this novel and his friend’s reactions are pretty funny as he is doing so. What A Rogue Wants is a novel that will keep the reader entertained as they flip the pages reading to the very end. It contains within it's pages, drama, humour and very sexy love scenes. Caroline Linden shows she has a great career writing Historical Romance before her. Each book gets better and better and I look forward to reading what she is publishing next.
