A Rogue by Night

By: Kelly Bowen

Narrated by: Ashford McNab

2018 RITA award-winning author!
From the author who Sarah MacLean calls "a charming, clever, and engaging storyteller" comes the next regency romance in the witty and sexy Devils of Dover series!
Baron. Physician. Smuggler. Harland Hayward is living a double life as an aristocrat by day and a criminal by night. As a doctor, Harland has the perfect cover to appear in odd places at all hours, a cover he uses to his advantage. He's chosen this life to save his family from financial ruin, but he draws the line at taking advantage of the honest and trustworthy Katherine Wright.

Katherine thought she was done smuggling. Having finally convinced her ailing father and injured brother to abandon their criminal pursuits, she's returned to England to help them escape to a new life--once she helps them fulfill their last contract. And that means working with Hayward, even when her instincts tell her that becoming his ally may be a risk to her heart - as well as her life.

Critic reviews

"Wonderful! A charming, clever, and engaging storyteller not to be missed."—Sarah MacLean, New York Times bestselling author

"Where have you been all my life, Kelly Bowen? If Julia Quinn, Sarah MacLean, and Lisa Kleypas were to extract their writing DNA, mix it in a blender, and have a love child, Kelly Bowen would be it."—HeroesandHeartbreakers.com

"Top Pick! 4 1/2 stars! What a way to start the Devils of Dover series! Readers will adore the dark playboy and the smart, witty heroine who teaches him a lesson (a la Pretty Woman). This is a book not only to savor, but a keeper that will stay in your heart."—RT Book Reviews on A Duke in the Night

Good Story, Excellent Narration

This was a good story. I enjoyed it quite a bit.

I enjoyed Harland and Katherine together, they made a great couple, they had good chemistry it wasn't forced at all. It felt real and genuine, they got to know each other throughout the book. So that was a bonus. There were a couple steamy sex scenes, not erotica not rated G, they could have been a bit shorter but they were well written.

The story line and plot was good. I really enjoyed the smugglers and surgeons plot. Very good back stories. I really like Kelly Bowen's writing style. My all time favorite Kelly Bowen book is still A Duke of My Heart, hands down the best!

As for the narration, I love Ashford McNab so this was a double bonus, great author and great narrator. Ashford does such a great job on the men's voices. She reads with emotion and everyone gets their own distinct voice. She has a great reading voice too.

Surprisingly good!

Catherine and Harlan - two doctors and smugglers who meet and fall for each other. I loved that these two characters each took a chance. Scared as they each were by past pain and rejections, they bravely took a chance to make a connection. Slow burn. Intelligent dialog. A fresh and interesting plot line with interesting characters. A solid, interesting story of smuggling and strategizing ways to outwit the soldiers, as well as other smugglers. Includes a sweet HEA. Loved it.

Best of the 3 book series

Loved the story, characters and narrator. It engaged me all the way through. I especially like that the underworld character, King, was brought into this series. Like his character from other books.

I love this series

The characters are well written and interesting. Different stories than the regular love stories. I have already listened to the series twice and I’m sure i will cycle back to it again. I like Ashford McNab’s narrations and have listened to her in other books as well. I think the three books were well worth my credits, which is saying something since I have the romance package as well and can listen to many books for free.
