Ella Humphrey is cursed when it comes to love. Two overprotective brothers and the entire League of Rogues, are determined to protect her at all costs, even from falling in love. When a man at death's door is delivered to her care, she recognizes him as the friend of one of her brothers, and more importantly as the man she secretly loved for years. As her affection deepens for the wounded earl, she envisions a happy future with him. Yet the moment Phillip can walk again, he leaves Ella and breaks her heart.

Straight to the point

Lovely story. The story showed glimpses of the past happenings with out
long explanations or unnecessary descriptions that would lead to doldrum. Then moved into the future for a happy ending.

romance

I really enjoyed this book. The lady's voice was quit pleasing, and the book was romantic, without being too graphic in the sexual way. I get tired of the graphics in some books, I would like to read something that lets me use my imagination sometimes instead of being told what I am supposed to feel. I hope that makes sense.

Short but excellent

This is one of my favorite Side Stories within the league of Rogues series.

Enjoyable conclusion

The earl of Kent was set upon and almost murdered by the league of rogues enemy. Ella loved the Earl Kent when she was 15 and continued with her feelings as she became an adult. The earl of Kent loved Ella, but because he was injured severely felt broken and not worthy of Ella‘s love. Good story with a happily ever after. Good narrative.

Not Bad

Nice short story. Imperfect hero. Reclusive, grumpy hero. Love at first sight for heroine. Hero is heroine brother's best friend.
