The Company of Rogues finally knows the identity of the mastermind behind a plot against the queen—but their enemy is still one step ahead of them. When he kidnaps one of theirs, the Rogues plan a daring rescue mission that will lead them into the heart of the bloodthirsty Crimson Court. It's a job for a master thief, and there's nothing Charlie Todd likes more than a challenge. To pull off the impossible, Charlie needs a crew, including the only thief who's ever been able to outfox him. He broke her heart. But now she must risk it all to save his life… Lark's spent years trying to forget her past, but the one thing she can't ignore is the way a single smile from Charlie still sets her heart on fire. When he proposes they work together again, it feels just like old times, but she has one rule: this is strictly business. It's Charlie's last chance to prove he can be trusted with her heart. But Lark's keeping a deadly secret. And as passions are stirred and the stakes mount, it might be the kind of secret that could destroy them… (altro)

To Catch a Rogue
3.5 Stars

This installment continues from where the previous one ended as the Company of Rogues travel to the Blood Court of St. Petersburg to rescue their enigmatic leader, the Duke of Malloryn. To aid in their mission, Charlie Todd enlists the aid of his fellow thief from the rookeries, Lark Rathinger, who is also the only girl he has ever loved. But Lark's is keeping a dangerous secret that might just put the entire company at risk.

While the kidnapping and rescue elements of the plot are exciting and action-packed, the romance leaves much to be desired. This is mainly due to the fact that neither Charlie nor Lark are sufficiently interesting characters to warrant their own book, and their second-chances relationship is bland and boring. There is very little chemistry to speak of and their emotional connection feels forced.

In contrast, the developments in the suspense plot are much more appealing. The Blood Court is a fascinating and terrifying setting, and the questions revolving around Dmitri's amnesia and Lark's true identity make for engrossing reading.

In the aftermath of his capture and torture, Malloryn's already enigmatic character becomes all the more appealing, and it will be interesting to see how he comes to terms with his past and his relationship with his mysterious bride. Looking forward to it!

This is definitely my favorite of this follow-up series. I liked both leads in the original series, and it's nice to see them grown up and their relationship evolving. Lots of sweet moments, and their feelings felt backed up by their history and actions as well, which is nice. There's an Anastasia element that strains belief a bit, but it was also kinda fun, so I was willing to go along with it. The rescue mission had a few major failings that were a little hard to watch, the whole group of professionals not foreseeing totally foreseeable things, but overall I was entertained and happy to see how everything would play out.

I AM SO VERY EXCITED FOR LARK AND CHARLIE'S BOOK!!!!!!

I loved this! I loved grown-up Lark and Charlie and learning Lark's backstory and misunderstandings and tension and slow-burn love. So sweet, and great intrigue to boot. I am SUPER jazzed about Malloryn's book and I know it's the last in this series - will we get a Russian spinoff??? ( )
