Eleanor, the eldest daughter of the Earl of Acton, is drawn, despite her better judgment, to the rakish Lee Campbell, the illegitimate son of an aristocratic family, a fascination that could destroy her reputation. Original.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Shocked to discover that the inebriated rake who kissed her and then mentioned blackmail is none other than Leander Campbell, her best friend's adored bastard stepbrother, Lady Eleanor Acton sets out to foil his nefarious schemes and ends up in love with him instead. This well-crafted, compelling story of two people caught in an apparently unsolvable dilemma offers charming dialog, a good sense of the period, an intelligent heroine, a hero whose sense of honor almost does him in, and a tricky mystery. Ewing has hit her stride with this one. She has written two earlier Regencies featuring Wellington's intelligence officers as heroes (the first, Scandal's Reward, Zebra, 1994, won the Colorado Romance Writers 1995 Award of Excellence for Best Regency). Ewing lives in Montrose, Colorado.

This Regency novel is a one-of-a-kind work of art.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Rogue's Reward (Zebra Regency Romance) (Paperback)
I have read other romance novels, but they simply do not match the elegantly-woven story Ewing creates. Eleanor is the kind of person I can relate to, especially in her love for Lee. However, she seems to be the kind of person who relies on her own convictions when she feels an injustice is being done. I once read that a "reader" should not identify himself(herself) with any of the characters in a book or novel. Nonetheless, in my perusal of this novel, I couldn't help but compare myself to Eleanor, who reminds me of myself. Reading the story definitely left me with a feeling of deja vu. It was incredible! Rogue's Reward deserves to be read a thousand times over! I highly recommend it to any lover of romance novels, especially Regency romances. What an extraordinary love story. Lee Campbell will forever be my favorite rogue.
