DARING THE DUKE (APB) Anne Mallory When we last saw Stephen Chalmers he was recovering from the attempt on his life by a ring of royal traitors. Since then he's successfully inherited a title, but he's yet to discover the identity of the mysterious rescuer responsible for saving his life. He's also yet to discover the secret identity of the criminal he's been hunting for years: an infamous thief who disappeared from the London scene years ago, only to return recently and act more brazenly than ever. And though he doesn't have the thief in his clutches yet, he's closer than ever. Orphaned and responsible for her younger sister, Audrey Kendrick had no choice but to turn to a life of crime in order to survive. It wasn't long before the clever, beautiful young woman became England's most notorious thief. Her true identity had never been discovered, not even by Stephen Chalmers, the disarming young Duke who had followed her for years.

3.5 stars. I loved Audrey and I liked Stephen but I didn’t really believe the romance? The story was alright - it had potential but I think there were just too many things happening here. I wish we had more time with Audrey - I kept wanting to know more about her.

addendum: ahh, I've been thinking about this more today . . . did the romance work better than I thought at first? Stephen never gave up on Audrey when she wouldn't trust him and I dunno that IS romantic! She thought she was able to get ahead of him and, actually, it was he that was always two steps ahead but like not in a jerky way . . . in a "I understand this person and why they are doing these things" way. Anyway, I think the book was a little too plotty for me when I really wanted more romance because the glimpses of romance were. so. good. ( )
