Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake (Love by Numbers Book 1)

Reviews

Bobbie

It is a good story to dive into and i finished it in a sitting. Not wanting to experience the same pain his father felt, he chooses to live the life of a rake. It might be annoying for some though especially since the book was so expensive.

However it was a minor flaw so i am not that fussed. In fact, he swore off love altogether the day his mother left the family and broke his father’s heart. Gabriel St. John, the marquess, never planned to fall in love with Callie.

I like the book. Their late night adventures, dances, fencing matches, and horseback rides are swoon worthy and only grow more intimate as the novel progresses.

But the more time he spends with Callie, the more he learns what love really is and how badly he wants to give up his lifestyle for her. He sees Callie’s beauty and is set on helping her see it too. I thoroughly enjoyed reading from Callie’s perspective because I could see so much of myself in her.

She believes that those qualities are the reason why she has been a spinster for so long. At the beginning of the novel, she views herself as too plain, too ordinary, and too curvy in comparison to the women around her. Her newfound carefreeness paired with her natural kind and loving nature ends up ensnaring the Marquess of Ralston.
