This review is from: The Rogue and the Hellion (Mass Market Paperback)

Gabriel, Marquis of Bathurst, was robbed by the same pair of highwaymen, TWICE! He was determined to track them down and see them hang. He never expected to fall in love with one of them though.

Olivia Fairfax stole only from those who could more than afford it. If she and her partner did not steal, her family members would starve and her brother (who had NO idea what she was up to) would be thrown out of school. Not to mention their home was in dire need of repairs. But thanks to her deceased father, there was no money for anything. In addition to all these worries, she had a few more. Olivia was considered firmly on the shelf, yet Lord Palmerson was determined they would wed before her upcoming twenty-fifth birthday. Olivia was just as determined she would never marry the awful man!

***** Author Connie Mason pleases readers again with this, her latest master piece! Clearly Palmerson was the villain, however, the plot thickens when he gets an assistant to help him. Be sure to begin reading only when you are sure you will have plenty of time to devote to your reading habit., because you will not want to stop for a long time. This plot is down-right addictive! *****

4.0 out of 5 stars exciting Regency romance, June 10, 2002

This review is from: The Rogue and the Hellion (Mass Market Paperback)

In 1817 two highwaymen rob the Marquis of Bathurst, a Rogue of London. An angry Gabriel notices the one who accosts him wears a mask, but has green eyes, read hair, and a slim built. However, any thoughts of a counterattack end when the villain provides Gabriel the choice of giving up his deceased brother's ring or his family jewels. Gabriel plans to find this Ollie and Pete to see they hang.

Olivia Fairfax and her servant Peterson hate being highwaymen, but since her deceased father left them impoverished while destroying the family name with his fatal duel over a prostitute, she has no choice if she is to keep her brother at Oxford. However, she never expected to meet Gabriel at the Duchess Stanhope ball that she attends in order to rob jewels. She also never expected his pursuit of her. When the odious Palmerson abducts Olivia, Gabriel goes after them like a banshee. He will never allow anyone to harm the woman he loves even if her green eyes look so familiar to him.

THE ROGUE AND THE HELLION is an exciting Regency romance starring a brave heroine and a strong male champion. The story line is fast-paced and filled with action even on the dance floor. Though the villain is made to have no redeeming value and readers will wonder how Olivia's brother could be so naive about finances, fans will enjoy Connie Mason's latest tale because of the beguiling lead protagonists while eagerly awaiting the sequels starring the other Rogues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very sensual, great heroes!, May 11, 2006

This review is from: The Rogue and the Hellion (Mass Market Paperback)

The Rogue and the Hellion is a wonderful book. The plot is very interesting. Imagine a high society lady of London, disguised as a highway man! Picture a handsome marquis as her victim not only once but twice. The story is fascinating, full of romance, intrigue, and well written as only Connie Mason can do it.

Before you start reading this book, be sure you send your family aeay. Feed the pets and turn on your answering machine because you will not want to be disturbed.

In every part of the book, there was some mystery to be unsolved. The chemistry between Olivia and Gabriel was huge.

Feel free to read, entertaining, light and fabuluous!
