The Rake Patrol

review 1: This is a story of Edwina Hargrove who as a young child her, and her brother would write in code to each other. She loved deciphering his letter of his adventures when he would write to her. Edwina was bored with her life, Edwina and her friends had formed a group called “The Rake Patrol”. It’s main reason was to inform young maidens that rakes take advantage of them and take their innocence, and if they become pregnant they send them to America so no one knows their reputations are ruined. Edwina is reading the paper and she sees an ad asking for a young woman to meet a man. Her and her friends decide to save the young woman. This is how Edwina meets the renowned rake Ashton Trewelyn. It tells of there adventures with the guardians and how they wind up working toge... morether and how her feeling for him become different.I enjoyed this book very much, as I do all Donna MacMeans books. I liked the characters and the way they work together. It is a book that was worth reading and I can’t wait for the “Rake Patrol” to continue.
review 2: I received a copy of this book from the Goodreads First Reads Program.I'm not a huge fan of romance books but I enjoyed this book regardless of that, Edwina's skill in cryptography was an interesting plot point (I'm quite interested in cryptography myself but sadly I lack Edwina's talent for it!).I liked that Edwina was not a typical romance heroine, her insistence on being a modern woman was refreshing given that women in romance books are notoriously subservient. Ashton was also an interesting character and not the cardboard cut-out I expected!The quality of writing was high, the plot was compelling and there was plenty of character development. Overall this was a solid book and I would recommend it to any fans of the genre (and possibly a few people who aren't!) less
