About this audiobook
""I am in awe of her talent.""— Julia Quinn
In USA Today bestselling author Julie Anne Long’s thrilling new romance in the Palace of Rogues series, an infamous privateer’s limits are put to the test when he’s trapped during a raging tempest with a prickly female at the Grand Palace on the Thames.
He clawed his way up from the gutters of St. Giles to the top of a shadowy empire. Feared and fearsome, battered and brilliant, nothing shocks Lorcan St. Leger—not even the discovery of an aristocratic woman escaping out a window near the London docks on the eve of the storm of the decade. They find shelter at a boarding house called the Grand Palace on the Thames—only to find greater dangers await inside.
Desperate, destitute, and jilted, Lady Daphne Worth knows the clock is ticking on her last chance to save herself and her family: an offer of a loveless marriage. But while the storm rages and roads flood, she and the rogue who rescued her must pose as husband and wife in order to share the only available suite.
Crackling enmity gives way to incendiary desire—and certain heartbreak: Lorcan is everything she never dreamed she’d wanted, but he can never be what she needs. But risk is child’s play to St. Leger. And if the stakes are a lifetime of loving and being loved by Daphne, he’ll move any mountain, confront any old nemesis, to turn “never” into forever.

7 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A very sweet and sentimental slow burn romance with well fleshed out interpersonal relationships not just between the hero and heroine but the side characters as well. Would recommend to anyone looking for a comfort listen/read on a rainy day.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Privateer Lorcan encounters Lady Daphne as she's escaping a dangerous situation. Caught in a storm, they seek shelter at the Grand Palace on the Thames. Posing as a married couple, their initial distrust quickly turns to an irresistible attraction. Can these two people from different worlds find a future together?
This is an entertaining, deeply emotional novel. It's largely character-driven, yet the plot is well-paced and engaging. It's a steamy, slow-burn story. While the book can be read as a standalone, it's best enjoyed if you read the series in order. All the books in the series are brilliant, with a consistent tone.
Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.
