New York Times best-selling author Sarah MacLean returns with the much-anticipated final book in her Bareknuckle Bastards series, featuring a scoundrel duke and the powerful woman who brings him to his knees.

Grace Condry has spent a lifetime running from her past. Betrayed as a child by her only love and raised on the streets, she now hides in plain sight as queen of London’s darkest corners. Grace has a sharp mind and a powerful right hook and has never met an enemy she could not best...until the man she once loved returns.

Single-minded and ruthless, Ewan, Duke of Marwick, has spent a decade searching for the woman he never stopped loving. A long-ago gamble may have lost her forever, but Ewan will go to any lengths to win Grace back...and make her his duchess.

Reconciliation is the last thing Grace desires. Unable to forgive the past, she vows to take her revenge. But revenge requires keeping Ewan close, and soon her enemy seems to be something else altogether - something she can’t resist, even as he threatens the world she's built, the life she's claimed...and the heart she swore he'd never steal again.

This series "The Bareknuckle Bastards" was really good. Ms. MacLean kept the same narrator, Justine Eyre for all 3 of the audiobooks. She of course was wonderful to listen too.
I do wish Sarah MacLean's audiobooks were in the new catalog or Escape. Her books are pricey but well worth it. I definitely recommend this series. Enjoy!😄

Great series!

I love this author and the narrator. Because Justine Eyre read all three books, I was able to lock myself away and enjoy. The character voices are the same so you do not need to learn a different voice. Sarah gave us an ending that is not predictable like some other author would do. Bravo ladies on this great work

excellent conclusion

So good

This series was fun look at life on the fringes of the aristocracy. The reader does a horrible American voice, but it’s not a huge part of the series, so it just makes me laugh. Nothing that impacts the great job she does on all of the others. Men, women, children, etc. Well done!

Enjoyable series

Over all Loved the feelings conveyed between Grace and The Duke lol In the first few chapters Ewan realizes Grace is alive and boy do these characters go through some changes, while still haunted by the past. The chemistry is nicely done. You can really tell the main characters were yearning deeply for each other. I did for a moment get annoyed at Gracey tryna deny them what they needed to move on and commit. At the same time I get why she was hurt.. Ewan was very patient, he did a great job at showing his love.
steamy moments ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

I will always come for you Graceeee

A very nice ending for the series. It was great to see the final explanations of everything and the transformation of Ewan. Also I do love that all three of the Garden Bareknuckle Bastards are featured, to some degree, in all three stories.

My only complaint is that Sarah Maclean can get a bit wordy. I don't think you need to repeat the same plot points so often within the same book. I understand the repeating from book to book, however, it isn't necessary from chapter to chapter.

Lots of inner thoughts between dialogue can make the conversation hard to follow.

Over all a good series and I do recommend.

Good ending
