To Catch A Rogue (London Steampunk: The Blue Blood Conspiracy Book 4)

I have been dying to get my hands on To Catch a Rogue since I finished reading You Only Love Twice! One of the Rogues had been captured by a very dangerous character and it had seemed that all was lost because the character had been taken to the Crimson Court. A court where there was no mercy and the Blue Bloods did as they pleased. There is no place more dangerous and it would be a foolish mistake to try and retrieve their comrade but that did not stop The Company of Rogues! You can see why I would be so very excited to read this book, it promised 1) search & rescue, 2) danger, boatloads of danger, and 3) second chances.There was so much to love in To Catch a Rogue! The company really pulled together in order to search for their friend and that led them into many dangerous and unexpected situations. Not only that, it seemed like their foe was always one step ahead of them spoiling their best laid plans. What an exciting read! Not only was the story entertaining, it also delved into Lark’s past and all her secrets were laid bare! Wow, Lark had much to hide and I had no idea that she had such a history in Russia. There were many surprising twists and turns in this story and the pages just flew by.I loved that in this story Charlie and Lark were back together working as a team. They were quite the dynamic duo when they were kids running around the rookeries but now things were very different as they had both grown up and their awareness of each other had taken on a new aspect. The attraction that was simmering between Charlie and Lark was very cute and I think was written just right for them. Overall, To Catch a Rogue was a great addition to this amazing series and I cannot wait for the next book!

Charlie and Lark were best friends before life and feelings got in the way. Almost three years later, they reconnect when Charlie seeks out Lark to ask for her assistance rescuing the Duke of Malloryn from somewhere in Russia. Due to her past, Lark isn’t thrilled, but neither will she willing let Charlie blindly brave a den of danger without watching his back.I loved Charlie and Lark! They both had some hard knocks from life, but each maintained an air of innocence with each other that gave their romance a sweetness I found adorable. Don’t get me wrong. These two had chemistry galore, yet I liked how McMasters tempered the sizzle with the sweet. She exposed emotions when least expected, thus drawing attention to what made Charlie and Lark mesh so well together and why they trusted one another so deeply.Aside from a wonderful couple, this book was action packed from the start to finish! Swords, knives, fists, duels, pistols (I love a good action sequence and there are plenty here!), then there are the secrets, rescues, betrayals, and one annoyingly cunning villain I hope gets his comeuppance like you wouldn’t believe...Book five is up next concerning the Duke of Malloryn and his wife. After everything that was revealed in To Catch a Rogue, I cannot wait to see how all the events through this series tie together! I’m sure it will be a doozie!If you haven’t tried steampunk, start with Bec McMaster! She is hands down my absolute favorite steampunk author-Phenomenal world building, great characters, and fantastic romance-what’s not to love?!

I enjoyed this book, but definitely not as much as I’ve enjoyed the ones previous to it. While I’ve always loved Charlie, I just felt like the first half of the book was too chaotic in its perspectives. Too many different POVs were happening throughout the book for me to really enjoy Lark and Charlie.As always, running thoughts:Yes yes yes yes yes. These are one of the few series that I could just read over and over againOh that’s right, I had forgotten that she died.Bum bum bum. I love Malloryn the most, I think. Probably because he’s all cold and untouchable and who doesn’t want to break a man like that.I’m not going to be super stoked if Charlie and Lark share this book with Obsidian. And Malloryn. And Gemma.I thought Lark was a baby when Tin Man went to Blade? At least a toddler. How can she have these memories?Of course Ava is kidnapped and pregnant. Girl has no luck.The story isn’t as controlled as it normally is. There are so many POVs going on, thats it’s not just Lark and Charlie. Which I can understand, the series is coming to a head, but it’s a little...chaotic.Wait, where are they right now? Because Gemma and Obsidian are still nearby, right?Ohhh. Ok. Still weird. I hope Gemma looks over the edge of the bridge.Herbert McHerbert. Oh my god, I’m dying.

This is a story about trust and family, and family can come in many forms. As the Company of Rogues organise a rescue mission to save the Duke of Malloryn, Charlie and Lark embark on a rescue mission of their own - Each Other!!!Lark's dreadful and tragic past has kept this beautiful young woman encased in thick walls, and handsome, honourable and heroic Charlie's lonely and painful past has wanted him to find someone to love.... and he has, he has loved Lark for many years.This is a fabulously dark story, full of plots, death, treachery, humour, passion, love and Russia.Bec McMaster brings the COR to life with humour, intrigue and empathy. She is a wonderful wordsmith and this fast paced adventure keeps you turning the pages.It is a voyage of discovery and awakenings, not only for the adorable Charlie and Lark, but also for the Duke of Malloryn, as he realises he is not alone. I absolutely loved it!!

Loved this book! Finally we have Lark’s and Charlie’s story although some chapters are dedicated to Obsidian and Gemma since their storyline evolves in this book.The Company of Rogues travels to St. Petersburg to rescue poor Malloryn from Balfour’s clutches. A net of lies, betrayals, and revelations starts while Larka and Charlie fall in love.There are some gruesome scenes about Malloryn being tortured by Dido and Jelena. I’m not a fan of torture scenes. Can’t stand them, but at least there wasn’t any too detailed description.Can’t wait to read the next book.

I really enjoyed this one! I've been waiting for Charlie & Lark to finally become a couple! Those two were made for each other! I love that we find out who Obsidian really is as well. This book was action packed and brought a lot of secrets out into the open. I can't wait for Malloryn's book!

Been anxiously awaiting this release and as always, Bec doesn’t disappoint! The London Steampunk world takes a twist as the Rogues head for Russia and the Blood Court. More than one family skeleton leaps out of the closet in this page turner

Loved this book well to be honest love anything Bec McMaster writes cannot wait for the next one.

Love the stories lines in these books excellent reads

Fabulous, like the rest of her books

I bought this book since it's a Rita finalist this year, and I'm so glad I did! Great characters, great plot, and now I have to get the ones I missed.

What a wonderful read. Thoroughly enjoyed Lark and Charlie. Loved Lark’s secret. It was pretty cool. Loved having The Devil of White Chapel in the book. Highly recommended.
