I liked this much better than the 2nd book in the series. The first book in this Regency Romance series, Thief is definitely the steamiest but this one just had a good story. Although Linus and Rob, share just about everything including on occasion a bed and have been best friends and more since childhood, Linus just can't wrap his brain around the idea that Rob has finally realized that he wants him and only him. The struggle Linus has and the awkward way Rob goes about trying to convince his friend that he really does want to be with him rings true. I could easily see both their points of view and to watch the inner struggles of both of them was a unique twist. Of course the sex was hot and steamy and the men both gorgeous so that doesn't hurt the plot either.Product details

BROOK STREET ROGUES by Ava March.
The backstory
Robert and Linus have had occasional sex with each other for years - since they were teens. They also have frequent sex with others Linus with men, Robert with women. Robert is never with the same woman for more than a week or so.
The current story
Robert wants an exclusive relationship with Linus - both of them to stop seeing others. Linus wants the same thing but believes Robert is incapable of a long-term relationship. So Linus says no and avoids Robert a lot. That's the whole story. There is a happy romantic ending.
For most of the book I didn't understand why Linus rejected Robert's request. His reason(s) were not good. I think the author has a good writing style. She just needs something better to write about. There were four detailed sex scenes which were ok, but I didn't feel the passion or intense desire that I like to feel in sex scenes.
DISCLOSURE
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher Carina Press. Thank you.

If you have been following my reviews you already know that I love the Brook Street Trilogy. It's my favorite new series of the year and I highly recommend them. Rogue is the final book in the series and I'm a little depressed by that. I'm not ready to say goodbye yet.
Rogue is the story of Linus and Rob. They have been best friends for 18 years and have been lovers for a decade. They don't have the sweet, romantic relationship the other couples in this series had. Linus and Rob are friends and buddies more than anything, their sexual relationship has always been a sporadic and minor part of that friendship.
I liked that this book showed a very different relationship from the previous books. Rob is what I consider a tough guy. He is strong and proud, he knows what he wants and he goes after it. He has always preferred women, Linus is the only exception to that. Rob is surprised when he realizes that it's the pursuit of women that's the real thrill for him, once he has them he gets bored quickly. The only satisfying sexual relationship he has had in his adult life has been with Linus. Rob decides that Linus is exactly what he wants and he is going to get him.
Linus accepted many years ago that he preferred men. He has also accepted that Rob doesn't feel the same way. Linus has learned to be satisfied with what Rob can give him. Linus has centered his life around the friendship with Rob and absolutely will not put their friendship in jeopardy.
The couple and their story drew me in and I couldn't put this book down. I read it from start to finish in one evening. When I finished it I realized that even though I really liked the book I was still a bit disappointed. I think my disappointment came down to two things.
1. The book is very short. I never got to know the characters well and had to draw on my knowledge of them from previous books to fill in the details. The length of the book made me feel like I was getting a glimpse into their story rather than the entire thing. Plain and simple, I wanted more.
2. This is the story of two people that already have an established relationship and are considering taking it to the next level. That type of story is never a favorite for me. It's interesting but it's missing my favorite part of a romance book, the sexual tension and romantic build up.
The Brook Street Trilogy is an amazing journey through Regency-era London. The romances are deep and emotional. Give this series a try, you won't regret it. I'm going to miss these books I'm sad to see the series come to an end.
I loved this last installment in Ava March's trilogy, for the same reasons these first two reviewers did. My favorite was Thief, but I enjoyed them all.
This is my favorite of the trilogy but every book is great. I loved Linus and Rob together and felt the novella was the perfect length. The sex was hot, their friendship was deep and endearing. I really enjoyed it!
This was a nice addition to the Brook Street series. I didn't feel as enamoured with the MC's in this story as I did with previous characters from the series, but their story was vividly portrayed & enjoyable to read none-the-less. If you have enjoyed the preceding books, you'll find this one essential reading too.
