A Rogue at Stonecliffe by Candace Camp: Review

I’ve read many Candace Camp stories now and they always seem to leave an impression on me. I love that each one of them is different and unique.

A fresh story is to be released soon which is part of a standalone series. Check out my thoughts on this upcoming book below.

OVERVIEW:
When the love of her life left without any explanation, Annabeth Winfield moved on despairingly, knowing she’d never have a love as thrilling as her first ever again. Sloane Rutherford was roguish and daring, but as Annabeth grew up, she realized that their reckless romance was just a passing adventure, never meant for stability. Twelve years later, Annabeth is engaged to someone new, ready to start her life with a dependable man.

That’s when Sloane returns. And he brings with him a serious warning: Annabeth is in trouble.

After spending the past dozen years working as a spy, Sloane thought he’d left espionage behind him. But now a dangerous blackmailer is after Annabeth. Sloane offers to hide his former lover at Stonecliffe, the Rutherford estate, but stubborn Annabeth demands to be part of the investigation. As the two embark on a dangerous and exciting journey, memories of their past romance resurface. Sloane and Annabeth aren’t the wide-eyed children they used to be, but knowing they’re wrong for each other makes a nostalgic affair seem very right…

A Rogue at Stonecliffe by Candace Camp Review

I have to say, I really enjoyed this particular story because it was more of a spy and mystery story with that romance flowing throughout. Camp really reels us in with this one, offering layers of undertone that she builds into this book.

We get things like espionage and spying, double agents, moles, and traitors. We also get longlasting love, deep connections, slow-burn build-up, and some steamy romance. It really has it all.

Rich writing and wonderful characters make this book come alive. Annabeth was a force to be reckoned with and many times she frustrated me with her stubborn, unwavering resistance to anything. Got a bit crazy for a minute, but then Camp saved this one with a wonderful ending that leaves you smiling.

I did not read book one, but A Rogue at Stonecliffe is a standalone that you can escape into easily!
