The Kindness of a Rogue by Nancy Butler

4.0

This is my third historical romance by Nancy Butler but [b:The Kindness of a Rogue|3053114|The Kindness of a Rogue|Nancy Butler|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1309204149l/3053114._SY75_.jpg|3084008] is now my favorite.

Grenville Martyn, ’The Rogue’, first met Miss Sara Cobb while traveling on a coach. She was to start her new job as a governess in Cornwall. They did not know each other but he issued a warning, You’re making a mistake. She hissed, he repeated his statement, she frowned, he warned her again, she raised her chin, and he laughed. Needless to say, they started their relationship with verbal quips and swords.

It was refreshing that neither MC was a member of the ton. Even though the romance moved at a slow pace in the first half, I liked Gren and Sara, or Miss Crab as he called her. When they were together, they got under each other’s skin.

There was a bit of suspense and as my GR friend, Rane, wisely pointed out, the epilogue was out of place. Do as she suggested and read it before tackling the last chapter. You will be happy you did.
