Twice Tempted by a Rogue

The Stud Club Trilogy, Book 2

By: Tessa Dare

Narrated by: Rosalyn Landor

The daring members of the Stud Club are reckless gamblers and no strangers to risk - until love raises the stakes in Twice Tempted by a Rogue.

Luck is a double-edged sword for brooding war hero Rhys St. Maur. His death wish went unanswered on the battlefield, while fate allowed the murder of his good friend in the elite gentlemen’s society known as the Stud Club. Out of options, Rhys returns to his ancestral home on the moors of Devonshire, expecting anything but a chance at redemption in the arms of a beautiful innkeeper who dares him to take on the demons of his past - and the sweet temptation of a woman’s love.

Meredith Maddox believes in hard work, not fate, and romance isn’t part of her plan. But when Rhys returns, battle-scarred, world-weary, and more dangerously attractive than ever, the lovely widow is torn between determination and desire. As a deep mystery and dangerous smugglers threaten much more than their passionate reckoning, Meredith discovers that she must trust everything to a wager her heart placed long ago.

Not the best Tessa Dare

I have read/listened to all of Ms. Dare's books but this one was slow going. The very few steamy scenes were alright but not as good as they normally are in her books. Storyline wasn't bad but didn't keep my interest at all times.

A little tired of Rosalyn

I know she is wonderful but I’m a bit tired of her. All the heroes sound exactly the same. it was funny to read Tessa Dare and have it sound more like Julie Quinn or Mary Balogh. Story pretty good. Worth a listen. I think I will read the third one. not quite connected enough to the first one and the mystery wasn’t exciting.

Not A Chore At All..

Pleasant book to listen to but obviously a second in the trilogy. Narration was fine and easy to listen to. I hope the third book is available soon!

A good solid listen...steamy & centered on the H&H

I see after reading the second book in the series...the books are very centered on the relationship between the H & H. I personally like that. Dare does a good job building the relationship. There isn't much more of a side story...there is one....but it doesn't overpower the relationship side of the story. But I will say...there was quite a twist near the end.

I liked this book. It was good...not earth shattering...but good. The sex scenes are pretty steamy.

Meredith is a great character. Dare seems to be pretty good at writing her female characters.

Much, much better!

I enjoyed this story more than the first. I believe it was because there were times when it was really intense. The women were strong and the men were handsome rogues. As usual, I wish the ending took the reader farther into the future. I like to know the fate of the characters a year or two later. But that’s just me! The trilogy is worth your time,
