Redeeming the Rakes is Gemma Blackwood’s first series, published between 2017 and 2019. The five books each pair a disreputable hero with a heroine who has no patience for his nonsense. The Duke Suggests a Scandal kicks things off, followed by Taming the Wild Captain, Let the Lady Decide, Make Me a Marchioness, and Duelling for a Wife.
As Blackwood’s debut, this series established her Regency romance style: quick-witted heroines, flawed but likable heroes, and plots that involve enough social scandal to keep things interesting. The books are connected but each romance stands on its own.
