The Thief and the Noble by Dana LeCheminant

 

A Robin Hood Regency

“Remember who you’re fighting for.”

As the daughter of a marquess, Lady Marian Russell is poised to impress in her first London Season. She is young, beautiful, and wealthy—but catching an eligible husband is the last thing on her mind. Marian is disillusioned with how the upper class lives while the poor of London suffer, and she is determined to right this imbalance. When she comes face-to-face with a mysterious man who steals from arrogant aristocrats and redistributes the spoils to the poor, Marian recognizes a motivation that mirrors her own. She is determined to discover the true identity of the unscrupulous hero and offer her assistance.

When she unmasks the bandit Robin, he begrudgingly agrees to train the lovely Marian in the art of thievery in exchange for her silence, quickly realizing that his heart may be stolen next. But when they discover a copycat thief operating in London, they are faced with a foe whose purpose is far from noble. Amid distracting suitors, becoming a champion of the poor, and a growing attraction Marian can’t ignore, can she and Robin expose the renegade pilferer without risking themselves.

If I'm being honest, sometimes I have a hard time with re-tellings and I can't really say why.  But not this time.  I lovey loved this book and it's characters.

Marian and Robin are two interesting and fun characters with such personality!  It was oozing right out of the pages and into my heart and head.  This story created a fantastic movie in my head and I love when that happens.  There was danger, adventure, mystery and growing tension throughout the book.  It led to quite the exciting ending!  

This book releases on February 7th!

Content:  mild peril, mild violence.  Kissing.
