Scoundrels, thieves, and rebels inhabit the rookeries--where dangerous men fall in love with fierce women. WHEN AN UNDERWORLD PRINCESS... Beautiful, innocent Mina Mason has led a sheltered life as the sister to the most notorious crime lord in England. Her family's wealth and expectations keep her in a gilded cage, never able to act on her true desires. Like kissing--and engaging in far more scandalous behavior with--Charlie Thatcher, her childhood best friend. As a member of a rival gang, Charlie is distinctly off-limits. FALLS FOR THE WRONG MAN... Charlie Thatcher has known since he was a boy where his loyalties should lie: with the Chapman Street Thieves, who saved him from a brutal death in the dark alleys of the Ratcliffe rookery. As a bartender for the Three Boars public house, he protects his fellow brothers with his mind and his fists. But when one of those members threatens Mina's safety, Charlie's primal, protective instincts are triggered--and his defense of her puts them both in danger. PASSION MAY BE THEIR DOWNFALL. -------- Note: Stealing the Rogue's Heart is a dark, gritty, and steamy (on-page sex scenes) romantic suspense set in pre-Victorian England. West Side Story meets working-class London. While it is the conclusion to the Rookery Rogues series, it can be read as a stand-alone historical romance.
