Her Rogue for One Night: Lady Be Wicked

Wicked Widows' League, Book 2

By: Dawn Brower

Narrated by: Alexandra Lee Smith

Mrs. Claudine Grant married when she was 18 and lost her husband less than six months later to the ravages of war. Her heart is too bruised for anymore foolish whims, and she's determined to never marry again.

Hudson Lockley, the Earl of Wyndam has led a decadent life. He doesn't believe in love or marriage, but he does believe in pleasure. He lost both of his parents as a boy and was raised by his grandmother. He refuses to allow anything emotional into his life. One major devastation was enough to turn him cold—except in bed.

Claudine befriends Hudson's grandmother. They cross paths often, and over time Claudine wonders what a night of true passion would be like. The earl would make a spectacular rogue for one night.... Seduction takes them down an unexpected path and perhaps an all-consuming love neither had planned.

great society and characters

Claudine (Grant) married young but she got also widowed early. She was kind of "adopted" by a secret widow society. She was taken cared of instead of relying on her disapproving in-laws.She met Earl Lockley and there was instant connection which they had denied. The masquerade ball changed them.

This is book 2 but my first for the wicked widow's league. Impressed with the creation of this society and their ideals. They developed a good strategy to hide Claudine as well as befriend a lonely, and poor widow. Enjoyed also the added love story. (NOTE: Has mature scene in the story)
Enjoyed this book and planning to read more of the author's books. I recommend to watch for her stories and enjoy them.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Great Addition to the Series

This second installment of the WWL series was well written and kept me entertained from start to finish. The narrator did a fantastic job of making this a fun listen.

I received a copy of this audiobook and I am voluntarily leaving my honest review.

This story was perfect

Two people determined to never be attached again crash into a situation that they feel they can control only to learn they have no idea what they truly want. The characters were great and the plot was fun to follow. This was a very heart warming story and I loved it.

Her Rogue for One Night!

This is the second story in the "Wicked Widows' League" but can be enjoyed as a stand alone. There are connected characters along with the Wicked Widows club. This story is about Hudson, the Earl of Wyndam, and Claudine, a widow who married at eighteen. She fell in love, or thought she had, at eighteen and married. Her husband died shortly after and left her father as guardian for her care. Hudson is very close to his grandmother, who is in the widow league. He comes to visit her when he meets Claudine. He never wants to marry but is enamored with Claudine. There is a strong pull and attraction but she does not want marriage ever again. She wants her independence and is buying time to get it from her father in law. I enjoyed this story and thought the narration was nicely done. I love the characters in this short and quick read/listen.

Good story

The second book in the Wicked Widows’ League series. Widow Mrs. Claudine Grant and Hudson Lockley, the Earl of Wyndam's story is short and held my interest as I listened. I enjoyed seeing them get their happy ending with the ups and downs they went through. The narrator did a good job of the story.
