Book Review: The Rogue's Return
Summary: 5 Stars
Jancy lost her family and currently resides with her Uncle Trewitt. Simon is Trewitt's good friend and when he is in York he lives with him as well. Jancy is a solitary young woman and when her living arrangements with Trewitt are questioned by a man named McArthur, Simon defends her honor and a duel is set between the men. Just before the duel commences, Jancy arrives to tell Simon that Uncle Trewitt is dying. They rush to his side where he begs them to marry. With some hesitance they agree and are married on the spot.
Simon is aware that McArthur has been embezzling money and gifts that are supposed to go to the Indians and he is attempting to stop him. Jancy is hiding a huge secret and now that she is married to Simon, the one man she has always wanted, she is terrified of what will happen when he finds out who she really is. Another duel is set and afterwards they realize that someone is after the documents that Simon has obtained that damn McArthur.
As Simon and Jancy's relationship grows closer, her secrets are gnawing at her. She longs to tell Simon the truth. With Simon's life in danger again, they leave York for England. There, they hope Simon will be out of danger and he can bring the documents to the proper authorities.
They travel to England by boat where they are given plenty of opportunities for their relationship to grow. Which is does. Simon and Jancy become very close. But when the truth is revealed will Simon still accept Jancey; the woman he has come to love, or will he turn her away?
The Rogue's Return is largely based on the relationship between Jancy and Simon. I really enjoyed watching their relationship grow. Jancy and Simon are so loving with each other. Their mutual desire is both tender and passionate. I was anxious, but then relieved to see the events unfold as they did. Ms. Beverly is very descriptive with some of the characters' injuries and illnesses, which had me grimacing often. Definitely not a deterrent, but graphic none the less! The Rogue's Return is a beautiful story about love withstanding all obstacles and I enjoyed it very much.
