The Thief and the Noble

By: Dana LeCheminant

Narrated by: Luone Ingram

As the daughter of a marquess, Lady Marian Russell is poised to impress in her first London Season. She is young, beautiful, and wealthy - but catching an eligible husband is the last thing on her mind. Marian is disillusioned with how the upper class lives while the poor of London suffer, and she is determined to right this imbalance.

When she comes face-to-face with a mysterious man who steals from arrogant aristocrats and redistributes the spoils to the poor, Marian recognizes a motivation that mirrors her own. She is determined to discover the true identity of the unscrupulous hero and offer her assistance.

When she unmasks the bandit, however, Marian is stunned: He is none other than the elusive Lord Robin Loxley. In exchange for her silence, Robin begrudgingly agrees to train the lovely Marian in the art of thievery, quickly realizing that his heart may be stolen next. But when Robin and Marian discover a copycat thief operating in London, they are faced with a foe whose purpose is far from noble. Amid distracting suitors, becoming champions of the poor, and a growing attraction they can’t ignore, can they expose the renegade pilferer without risking themselves - and each other?

Fun Robin Hood retelling

This book was very cute. I picked it because I’d enjoyed other books from this author and this one was just as great. Interesting characters, fun story, believable romance. Very clean and cute.

Very disappointing

The writing seemed so different from the other works by this author that I wondered if it was one of her earliest books or was written by a ghost writer. Since I paid for the book, I listened to the end but at 1.5 speed to finish it more quickly. Although I’ve thoroughly enjoyed several of this author’s works, this one seemed vapid and I’ll hesitate to pay for any of her other books lest I be disappointed.
