This was a very short story. Only took me about two hours to read. But what a fun two hours! Neither one of these main characters are gorgeous. He is not above taking his fists to someone who owes him money. He smacks some guy on the chin and calls it even for the debt. She is rather plain and very intelligent. Not even a garnet, much less a diamond, on the marriage mart.But there's something about them both, something that draws them together.Ariadne notices that pull, but she needs him to GO AWAY. She's trying to take down a dandy who tends to take advantage of women. And Ingram just keeps rescuing her just as the net is drawn close! Dang it!I loved her.This is certainly a case where the heart decides who is attractive to whom. As they get to know each other, they each find the other to be rather alluring.For a short story, this has a wonderful beginning, an interesting middle, and an enjoyable end.Yes, this book made me want to search out more by this author. Well done, Ms. Simpson!I rated this one FOUR bookmarks and I know I'll be picking it up again for another read.*Thank you, NetGalley and Beyond The Page Publishing, for the opportunity to read A Rogue's Rescue.
