About this audiobook
Laurent is a consummate rake, but even he is captivated by the beautiful Honoria. Laurent cares almost nothing for his own life, but he was always close to the royal family and the little princess was like a sister to him. He will risk everything to save her from a life of imprisonment and possible execution. His plan is risky and surely doomed, but if he can convince Honoria and the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel to help him, it just might succeed. The only question is how far he's willing to go and whether he's willing to risk the life of the only woman he's ever loved to save a doomed princess.
Contains mature themes.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Galen's series are hit or miss with me. The Survivors is strong, Jewels of the Ton, and Covent Garden Cubs are good, this series is starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel, and Regency Spies was pretty awful.
This book is okayish, 2.5 stars rounded up. It didn't feel very 'buyable' to me, so there was some emotional disconnect. The characters felt a little generic, I didn't dislike them, but I didn't care very much about them either. Kinda 'meh'.
