Let Sleeping Dukes Lie

Rules of the Rogue Series, Book 2

De: Emily Windsor

Narrado por: Justine Eyre

"Strait-laced. Ruthless. Arrogant."

Alexander Westhide, the Duke of Rakecombe, has no quarrel with such faint praise as he has forever shunned marriage, women, and anything remotely resembling love. Indeed, the damning words merely serve to enhance his haughty façade. But beneath the controlled demeanor lies a duke beset by tragedy, a man turbulent and restless.

"Forthright. Impudent... Capricious saucebox."

Miss Aideen Quinlan can't quite explain why she feels the need to taunt, tease, and generally annoy the Duke of Rakecombe. Maybe it was for the heart-racing spar of words that always ensued, or maybe it was to see the duke's broad fist clench on his ebony cane, green eyes glittering.

Or maybe it was because she was unable to erase the memory of his vehement kiss....

An unlikely couple.

Torn between his world of espionage and this unquenchable passion, the duke still refuses to lower his fierce defenses. If Aideen is to capture her resistant duke's troubled heart, it is she who must follow the Rules of the Rogue.

Resistance is futile....

Enjoyable

I started reading expecting nothing and found the books strangely relaxing and enjoyable. I love the narration of Justine Eyre and am looking forward ro read more.

Very Good!

I love the Irish accent of this heroine! The story was good & female lead a fun character. Duke a little over the top on stuffiness, but appropriate for story. The ending drug out too much for me & a little too gushy at times, could have done without that, but overall I enjoyed the storyline.

The end was so good

It was a quick listen. I throughly enjoyed their chemistry and the ending was so satisfying!
The Marques’ story is next and I’m looking forward to his story as well, he is definitely a great character. The mom was also fun. Somebody needs to take her to Egypt cause she done asked the whole damn Ton at this point but I digress. Definitely worth the listen. But listen to the first story in the series cause it is a prelude into this story that is very much needed.

Protecting one’s heart

Great story line. The reason for marriage and protecting one’s love. Two view points. Need to talk,

Good listen

I liked this book as well as the others in the series. The narrator was very good at differentiating between the many different characters throughout. It’s definitely worth the listen

Another great 1

Another good 1 within the series It was nice to see the duke brought to his knees by his Irish lass
Love Justine narration of the entire book

Great story

I didn’t read book 1 in the series but definitely be going back to do so. It s not necessary as this is a standalone story but Emily Windsor’s writing is fabulous. Definitely 5star.

Whilst I liked Justine Eyre for all female characters in the various ascents, I struggled a little to connect with her take on the male characters. The story more than made up for it though

Lovely

My new favorite author. She is so good. Intrigue, love, humor, the entire package!!! Very good

Truly, truly, truly enjoyed this!

Exquisite writing! Absolutely delightful characters! I highly recommend this book! Really looking forward to the next one in the series!

Well written and well read!

This book was based around the time period of when Napoleon escaped from the Isle of Elba.
Although a little of the plot was focused the war with France. A lot was deliciously Regency.
Aidine's Irish accent was a sweet touch to the story.
I really loved it. Aidine was a stubborn hot headed woman and her Duke cold and pig headed man.
I laughed a lot!
