    About this audiobook

    How does an innocent lady find herself forced to wed a royal spy who seduced her—by mistake? For Lady Rebecca Marshall, a whirlwind of passion and excitement begins when, to her mother’s great delight, she becomes a maid of honor at the court of Queen Victoria. Rebecca’s mother sees this appointment as a golden opportunity for Rebecca to make a good match.

    At court, Rebecca innocently steps into the rivalry between the queen’s spymaster and the noblewoman in charge of the maids of honor who is using the maids to spy on powerful courtiers. Soon Rebecca is entangled in a web of deceit with the charming marquis Rupert St. John. The devastatingly handsome n’er-do-well is the cousin of Raphael Locke, with whom Rebecca was once infatuated. What she doesn’t know is that Rupert is a secret agent of the crown who leads a double life.

    When Rupert obtains proof that Rebecca is spying on him, he seduces her. He hardly suspects her guileless nature. Forced to the altar, Rupert believes that Rebecca has set a trap of the worst sort in order to marry into his powerful family. Although he vows never to be faithful to his beautiful wife, as Rupert comes to know Rebecca’s wit, adventurous spirit, and generous nature, his vow of revenge turns into a desire to share many passionate nights only with his wife for the rest of his life.

    Warm, witty, and filled with the “deliciously sexy” (Booklist) flirtation that makes each of her bestsellers an irresistible gem, A Rogue of My Own will have listeners falling in love with Johanna Lindsey all over again!

    • 3/5
      This book was filled with ups and downs, a lot of attitude, intrigue, and wit. Rebecca, our main character, isn't as naive as she first seems, attracted to the Angel, Rupert St. John and roped into working as a spy for awhile, her life at court isn't at all what she thought it was going to be.
    • 1/5
      I usually love Johanna Lindsey novels, but I couldn't even finish this one. The two leads snap at each other constantly to where I wanted to smack them both. The writing isn't even up to Lindsey's usual standards. I think if she did a search for the word "blush" it would come up about a hundred times.

      I won't be giving up on Lindsey (since I really enjoyed her Mallory novels), but this one was a dud for me.
    • 3/5
      Exclamation marks are WAY overused, but the story is a fun one.
    • 4/5
      A well-rounded romance. The characters were approachable and realistic, and the story was great. Johanna has a way of making her characters come to life. It is easy to get into the book and be transported to the past.
    • 4/5
      I liked this book. I am always amazed at how authors (like Lindsey) can come up with a fresh scenario every time. I found it a little tedious in the beginning, with all the description of the English monarchy, but past that, I thought it was entertaining. True, it was not one of my favorites of hers, but worth the time nonetheless. If you're looking for a real bodice-ripper, it won't be your cup of tea.
    • 4/5
      Something was missing from this story, it is not as good as the earlier 2 in this series.
    • 2/5
      I have to admit that this book was really disappointing. I love Johanna Lindsey but this effort of hers was very weak. I had to force myself to finish this book. I was not convinced of Rupert's and Rebecca's relationship. There really was no chemistry between then and the story line was really thin. There was little romance in this book and I hope the author's next book will be better.
