A fierce heroine with an independent spirit is what lured me. Rogue in Red Velvet is a love story steeped in a troubled history but undying devotion between the two main characters. Connie is has the intelligence, tenacity and heart of a tigress and the pride of a queen. Betrayal and hardship will not slow her down. Alex is just the right match for this woman with strong opinions and will of heart. He is her protector, lover and friend even in the face of death. Lynne Connolly has created a world filled with strong characters that reek of temptation, trouble and heart. My rating 3.5 stars.
