There is a moment when she talks about the feminist leaders who came before her to Tristian that made me tear up. Her refusal to compromise her independence was inspirational. She breathed, lived, and would die for the cause. She’s not always likable and sometimes she does have a holier-than-thou attitude, but I believe this is what made her the powerhouse leader of the suffragist movement.

I think my favorite part of this story is the character of Lucie.

The sexual tension between them was palpable! Lucie Throughout their constant bickering, the chemistry between the two was excellent. Tristan was a weaker character than Lucie but I loved how she challenged him and never failed to point out the privilege he has in society. I’m already a sucker for hate-to-love romances but throw in the fact that the characters are childhood acquaintances and it just makes it even better.

I also loved the romance and chemistry between her and Tristan. I love Lucie’s passion and determination. I possibly loved this more than Bringing Down the Duke. But as their battle of wills and words fans the flames of long-smouldering devotion, the silver-tongued seducer runs the risk of becoming caught in his own snare.Īs Lucie tries to out-manoeuvre Tristan in the boardroom and the bedchamber, she soon discovers there’s truth in what the poets say: all is fair in love and war… My Thoughts Lucie tempts Tristan like no other woman, burning him up with her fierceness and determination every time they clash. But who could have predicted that the one person standing between her and success is her old nemesis, Lord Ballentine? Or that he would be willing to hand over the reins for an outrageous price-a night in her bed. She and her band of Oxford suffragists have finally scraped together enough capital to control one of London’s major publishing houses, with one purpose: to use it in a coup against Parliament. Title: A Rogue of One’s Own (A League of Extraordinary Women #2)Ī lady must have money and an army of her own if she is to win a revolution – but first, she must pit her wits against the wiles of an irresistible rogue bent on wrecking her plans…and her heart.
