5.0 out of 5 stars
Another wonderful Avon True Romance.,
This review is from: Victoria and the Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)
Victoria Arbuthnot was just four years old when her parents died while the family was visiting India. Since then, she has been raised in India by her uncles, but now that she is sixteen, she has been sent back to England to find a husband. On the long sea journey from India to London, Victoria meets Hugo Rothschild, the ninth early of Malfrey, who proposes to her shortly before the journey's end. Victoria is thrilled with the proposal. But why is Jacob Carstairs, who was also a passenger on the ship, trying to get her to end her engagement? Now that they are in London, why won't he just leave Victoria alone? And why is she even attracted to such an infuriating man as Jacob? And is Hugo hiding a terrible secret? I enjoyed this book even more than Meg Cabot's first Avon True Romance. It had a really good romance and also a good mystery subplot.

A WELL READ ROGUISH ROMANCE,
This review is from: Victoria and the Rogue (Audio CD)
British actress Serena Gordon becomes the voice of Victoria, she's perfect. Gordon is appropriately regal and reads this romance for teens and tweens with relish. Lady Victoria Arbutnot is a wealthy sixteen year old who knows her own mind, and thinks she knows everyone else's, too. She's a privileged miss having grown up in India where she's been pampered and given her own way. That comes to an abrupt halt when she's sent off to London to find a husband. Victoria doesn't waste a minute as she's barely aboard ship before she sets her eyes on and her cap for good looking Hugo Rothschild (he's the rogue of the title, although she doesn't know that yet). He doesn't put up too much of a battle and their romance is off to a fine start. Ooops - there's unexpected interference from the captain of the ship, Jacob Carstairs. He's also young and handsome, and a self-appointed guardian of Victoria's heart and future. Listen to find just what that future may hold. - Gail Cooke

By Aleisha (Lake Mary, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Victoria and the Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)
Meet 16 year old wealthy young heiress Lady Victoria Arbuthnot. Since her parents died when she was 4, she has been living with and was raised by her 3 army officer uncles. That is until recently, when her uncles send her off to England to find a hushand! And find a husband Vicky does! During her journey to England on the ship the Harmony she meets Hugo Rothschild, the ninth earl of Malfrey, and Victoria thinks he is absolutely perfect for her. And Hugo seems to agree since he asks Vicky to marry him. Victoria is absolutely thrilled with her life now, well she would be if Jacob Carstairs, who is far too handsome for her state of mind, would just leave her alone! Is Hugo really a rogue like Jacob says? Is he hiding some secret? And why is Jacob so determined to get involved?This was another great book by Meg Cabot. I liked it even better than her first Avon True Romance!
