This couple - Marcus and Quinn - did not even know each other. And it always amazes me how in merry old England of years gone by so many women could be compromised for doing hardly anything. And this is what happened to Quinn and Marcus - but Quinn's father took advantage of this little misstep and announced Marcus and Quinn to be betrothed. They marry almost immidiately and what follows is really a very nice love story. I thought one of the more interesting aspects was that Quinn felt Marcus was very stodgey and reserved - which he certainly was not. This couple did not fight each other - but allowed a real love to develope while they were both fighting the inequities of the poor in different ways. I enjoyed this book very much!

A Rebellious Bride Brenda Hiatt 9780380817795 Books Reviews

In 1816 England, American visitor Quinn Peverill misses the freedom of her native Baltimore. Bored with societal rules and not knowing most of them, Quinn goes about London unescorted while her father conducts business. At about the same time, Lord Marcus Northrup takes on the Robin Hood mantle of the Saint of the Seven Dials from his recently married friend when he observes Quinn disguised as a lad trying to help a young pickpocket.

Not expecting to see one another ever again, Marcus and Quinn are caught in a situation that requires they marry. Neither one wants to wed a stranger, but society dictates they must to avoid a scandal. Thus the couple get hitched. As they become acquainted with one another they argue and fight until love enters the relationship.

Brenda Hiatt is highly regarded by Regency romance readers for her energizing tales starring warm characters. Her latest novel, THE REBELLIOUS BRIDE, is a fun sequel to ROGUE'S HONOR. Though the bickering between the lead protagonists is amusing it also slows down the action. Still, readers will find the independent fiery Quinn a charmer and Marcus a hero while simply enjoying the latest Saint tale and vowing they want more such stories.

Harriet Klausner
Lord Marcus Northrup inspired by his friend Luke the former Saint of Seven Dials decides to give meaning to his hedonistic existence by stealing from the rich to give to the poor. His first charitable attempt which has gone awry leads him to a betrothal with an American shipping heiress, Quinn Peverill. Quinn is indomitable and fiercely independent, refusing to submit to the watchful eyes of the ton in London - and much less to being manacled to a mercenary marriage to the stodgy Lord Marcus. Her reputation is threatened by gossipmongers that saw both of them together - unchaperoned. Lord Marcus finds his anonymity as the brigand conflicts with his marriage to the charming Quinn. Quinn takes in his pretense as a social pedigree and hides her philanthropic efforts to build a school for the poor and orphaned. Only one thing though - she needs the help of the Saint....
A Rebellious Bride sparks no surprise - nor disappointment. It is a conventional plot that bridges two mismatched lovers together and twists it with double identity and gives a twist of love and humour. Although the plot is relatively slowed down by the clashing of the oddball couple, it is kept alive through wicked banters and hilarious ironies. Ms. Hiatt manages to steer the story with energized characters and humour.
This is the second installment to the Saint of Seven Dials series that began with a Rougs Honor.
Quinn an American shipping heiress is in London with her father to establish an office for their shipping business and to visit with estranged family. Quinn does not like the restraints the are imposed on her in London so in order to escape and have some time to herself she dressess in her borrowed brothers cloths and heads out on a mission to help a young maid. One thing leads to another and the next thing she knows she in in Lord Marcus house. It only takes a minute for Marcus to know that she is not a street urchin but a young lady. Once he realizes his mistake he tries to get her out of his house without any scandal but who should be outside the front door but London's biggest gossip.
The next night both Marcus and Quinn end up at a ball together and are surprised to be seeing each other. Both pretend that they have never met each other and this is working until the Gossip sees both of them together. With her loud mouth things start to fall apart and the next thing they know they are betrothed to each other.
The story is fast paced and entertaining but there seemed to be a lack of something important. I think it may have been how long it took for these two strong willed people really took so long in communicating to each other how they felt.
Still it was an entertaining read even if it seemed slow going at times.
This is the second book in the Saint of Seven Dials series. I read this book after enjoying the first book (Rogue's Honor) as a free kindle download. It continues with the same "Robin Hood" theme. However, it is not necessary to have read the first book. A familiar character of the first book is featured here - Lord Marcus Northrup. Miss Quinn Peverill finds herself engaged to him after being caught in an innocent compromising position. Quinn, who is from Virginia and unfamiliar with the rules of the ton, is in London with her Captain father to be presented to society. Her now deceased mother left London for America after a "scandal" 25 years ago and is no longer living. The American captain hopes to find a suitable husband for his daughter. The couple find they have a common compassion for those less fortunate (although not known to each other), after several daring escapades. It is an easy, entertaining read.
I order the series after someone gave me the first book. I really enjoyed reading the series, it was quite entertaining.
