Gentle Rogue (Malory-Anderson Family, #3)

by Johanna Lindsey

Her innocent heart trampled and torn, lovely Georgina Anderson dressed as a cabin boy and stowed away on the ship Maiden Anne bound for America in search of her long-lost fiance.

But instead she found rakish Captain James Malory, the handsome ex-pirate who was the black sheep of a proud English family. James had won many women but had never lost his heart...until he came up against the tempestuous Georgina, and the tidal wave of their passion threatened to engulf them both.

An easy listening experience...

Gentle Rogue is exactly what I expect from a historical romance written 30 years ago. I expect the hero to be a bit of a douchewaffle. I expect the heroine to be a bit bratty. I expect that the hero and heroine will change their ways because of true love...

I love the *heroine dresses as a lad and gets caught by the hero* storyline. In this one, Georgie has no idea that her appeal is amplified with the figure-hugging breeches. When she's caught out in her disguise for a second time, it's no wonder James wants to 'play' with her a bit. It was quite humorous that Georgie wants to keep the disguise... but be treated like a lady too.

The narrator did a fantastic job bringing these characters to life. Her accents, male and female voices and the emotions portrayed were spot on. I never had a problem identifying when a character changed.

The Malory-Anderson Family series is one I have enjoyed and I will definitely be going on in the series. Let's hope that some of George's blockhead brothers get exactly what they deserve when it's time for their love story.
