These guys are terrific. They grew up together in the same area, played together when young and formed lasting friendships. Van Vandeimen,Hawk Hawkinville,and Con Sommerford. They are the three Georges. Because of confussion they changed their names from George and got tatoo's, A Devil, A Hawk and a Dragon. Only one of the Georges,(Con) is a Rogue but through him they are all part of the same group. We also find out what the tatoo's mean and why they have them. They were all hurt and scared by the war where they lost many friends and comrades. The stories are about three men and the three women in their lives and how they help bring their men back from the brink of, hurt, financial disaster, and even death. Interwoven throughout are the Rogues and how they help and how the Georges even come in to save the day. There is wonderful character developement, funny and heartwarming dialogue and at the end we find out what happened to Dare and Maria Theress, Nicholas Delaney's nemesis. You have to Read An Arranged Marriage and an Unwilling Bride before you can truly understand and appreciate the last book of the Heroes called the Devils Heiress and see that it is the culmination of many Rogue intrigues. Yes it is long but it is two entire novels and a novella. You will smile and say thank heaven, but you WILL enjoy it. But read the other books first so that you can understand and appreciate everything that takes place. This book helps to set up what happens in Hazard. Another company of Rogues book. All are Wonderful Reads.

This was a good anthology of the stories surrounding friends of Ms. Beverley's Company of Rogues, and of one of its members. The conceit of having them all have the same first name was clever, and the novella called Devil's Heiress provides important information about other Rogues whose stories are told separately. I enjoyed the pace and characterizations very much.
