Good story and good premise, but I felt that some editing was needed. I loved the overall passion and love these characters all felt for each other, but I think that the author extended things a bit too long. Some of the dialogue Thea had with herself was a little redundant and Will was drawn to her from almost the start and should have recognized his feelings sooner. The subplot about the charter almost seemed like an afterthought. And the title was a little misleading as Will didn’t seem to be a rogue at all!

I think we have already established that I really like Janna MacGregor, she creates such charming stories and I truly look forward to each of them! A wonderful author indeed.

Rogue Most Wanted is a lovely story, and I definitely enjoyed reading it, I also cried, and had some palpitations...which show me that I was deeply absorbed by the reading.
However, what I didn't particularly enjoyed is, primarily the constant interference of Aunt Stella; it was cute and funny at the beginning, but at times I just wanted to tell her to please shut up. Secondly, although I understand that Theodora's loneliness might have led to get quickly attached to strangers who show kindness and support (the stranger being Will), I thought it a bit unauthentic that she would pour out all her most personal feelings and open up so much to someone she barely knows, regardless of the instant bond they might have felt. And his reactions were also a bit over the top at times.

That said, I really want to recognise and highlight the author's style and, also if this is not one of my favourite among the one she created, it still managed to catch all my attention and to emotionally captivate me!

I didn't like the hero, I gave him an opportunity to prove me wrong anyway but since the very beginning I found that the way he talked about womens (not related to him) was problematic. He had a relationship with a woman 10 years ago and she broke his heart and he was so resentful towards her. Yes, a woman broke your heart but to think "I'll never fall in love again" because of it and say that you're not interested in women's (you can't have a woman friend?) , the subtext is that he thinks "all women are evil" because 1! broke his heart, that's extremely misogynist.

And I didn't like the relationship that he had with the heroine. He was kind and nice to her but it was instalove for me, in like 20 pages he went from "I'm not going to marry her" to "I can't stop thinking about her, I want to help her, maybe marriage is a good idea".

And "The EVIL ex girlfriend" is a trope that I hate so I didn't enjoy to say the least.

To sum up, the heroine was ok but I disliked the hero, and I'm not a fan of the evil ex girlfriend. At least I liked the secondary character's, Will's aunt was amazing.

Lord William Cavensham is anti-marriage after being jilted by a childhood friend, having had no idea she was already committed to someone else.
Lady Theodora Worth cared for her grandfather, who had dementia for seven long years. Upon his death, her cousin decided that what he inherited was not enough, and came after her inheritance with a vengeance.
Thea went to a close neighbor, Lady Stella Payne for help and Lady Stella along with Lady Edith came up with a plan. Their plan involve a recalcitrant nephew, William Cavensham.
Traveling to London to make her case, she became close to his family and adored them all...and it was mutual. He wanted to find her a husband...but didn't want her to be with anyone else. She adored him, but didn't want to trap him...even though the pair had become steamily intimate.
Her time in London is lively and they eventually overcome great odds in her quest for her estate.
Ms. MacGregor writes a lovely tale, with a bit of mystery, the missing document, a difficult relationship, and the interaction of a close loving family. Add a villainous character, the cousin, and it's hard to put down.
I received a NetGalley ARC to peruse to my delight and recommend this tale if you love historicals.

I have grabbed every one of the books in this series. Janna MacGregor has yet to disappoint me! I have loved Will from the get go and so happy to read his love story. The world and character building that this author has created has made me fall in love with them all. Every single one. Such amazing love stories. If you are a romance reader then these are good ones! I will happily await the next one!

Thank you Netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was a decent historical romance by this author. I was invited to review an Advance copy. Thea is forced to find a husband after a relative challenges her title. A friend introduced her to Will who fights his great aunts plans to marry him off. He meets her and is charmed by her innocent and bubbly personality. She in turn is charmed by his generous and kind persona. The story picks up later in the story and both join forces to help Thea keep her tittle.. Enjoyed it.

It was clear from the beginning of this book that the two characters were in love. The only problem was that the characters were refusing to admit it to themselves. Then once they finally do, there's a twist. I liked how parts of what kept them apart wasn't just their stubbornness. I also really liked how Thea is a Countess by her own right, no husband required. I also loved how they allowed their friendship to grow for a while.

Thea and William’s story is interesting as she is fighting to retain her Scottish title and lands through a female allowed succession. I was a bit confused at the beginning because it seemed like everyone had the same last name but as I progressed into the story, things became clear. Thea was an isolated child-raised by her grandfather. When he became senile, she protected him from people finding out. And then,after his death, she continued to run his estate very successfully. But she has never been part of a family or had friends. Enter William, the second son, whose great aunt wants to set him up with Thea. He has locked off his heart to love after being jilted at the age of 19. Theirs is a sweet love story as they fight to retain her lands. Enjoyable read.

LOVED this book! It drew me in from the very first page and kept me hooked until the very last page - I was actually sorry when it ended. This is one of those books that you can't wait to see what happens next, but don't want it to end. I am not a big historical romance fan, but this author's books are on a short list of exceptions. She writes well crafted characters that seem to come alive on the page. Then she puts them in an untenable situation, further restricted by the unwritten rules governing the ton.

Thea finds herself alone on her late grandfather's estate. She spent years caring for him and fulfilling his obligations, however, once he passes, a long lost relative stages a challenge to take her title and estate. She finds herself at the mercy of men and English law governing the inheritance of title, in direct conflict with Scottish law allowing women to inherit. One thing that could help her is to be married, so her elderly neighbor contrives to set her up with her great nephew, Will. Neither Will or Thea have any interest in marrying, but circumstances keep throwing them together, even while the challenger to her title amps up his nastiness.

This is a wonderful book that any romance fan will love. While it is part of a series, this is a stand alone novel, however, the series is so good that you really owe to yourself to read them all. The author is on my must read authors' list.

This novel was an enjoyable read, with a strong and determined female lead. Lady Theodora Worth is fighting for her beloved home of Ladykyrk and her title as Countess. The new duke of Ferr-Colby is fighting her claim. Thea needs to find the charter that proves she is Lady Eanruig and protect the tenants. She needs help though and who better to help than Lord William Cavensham. Will believed he fell is love with a woman who ended up marrying someone else. This left him heartbroken and he hardened his heart to protect himself. However, good old Aunt Stella has other ideas for Will, which means putting him in Thea’s path. Neither Thea nor Will want marriage, but agree to to friendship and to help each other. Will is a good man, intelligent, helpful, and loves his family. Will begins to grow jealous of Thea spending time with other men, realizing he wants to be the man for her. Thea falls in love with Will, but she needs to put her tenants first. With those out to destroy their reputations and Thea's claim, their love will be tested greatly and sacrifices will be made to protect the ones they love.

Lady Theodora is in a quandary.
She was brought up by her grandfather in Scotland.
When there is a challenge to her title and inheritance she devises a plan.
But is William the one to help her?
Recommend.

I received an Advanced readers copy in exchange for an honest review.

Just fizz, no sizzle. It was hard to ge through.

This was one of the best books I have read in a while, really enjoyed it I mean I laughed,and yes I cried . The plot was good and so was the ending. Of late the ending in most books have been to quick this one was better you could enjoy it and yes I thoroughly recommend it.

By far the best book I've read in a long time! The main characters were so likable, the story engaging, and the writing superb. I had to finish the story in one sitting. I absolutely loved it! The whole cast of secondary characters just added so much depth to the story. It was everything I love in a Regency romance. If you have to choose one book this year, make it this one! You won't regret it!
