Rogue Spy by Joanna Bourne Review

For years he’d lived a lie. It was time to tell the truth . . . even if it cost him the woman he loved. Ten years ago he was a boy, given the name Thomas Paxton and sent by Revolutionary France to infiltrate the British Intelligence Service. Now his sense of honor brings him back to London, alone and unarmed, to confess. But instead of facing the gallows, he’s given one last impossible assignment to prove his loyalty. Lovely, lying, former French spy Camille Leyland is dragged from her safe rural obscurity by threats and blackmail. Dusting off her spy skills, she sets out to track down a ruthless French fanatic and rescue the innocent victim he’s holding only to find an old colleague already on the case. Pax. Old friendship turns to new love, and as Pax and Camille’s dark secrets loom up from the past, Pax is left with a choice go rogue from the Service or lose Camille forever

My Review:
I really liked this cover. I immediately thought of The Pimpernel, and London. Like most stories there is a romance, and the characters do not realize how much is at stake. However this story is different. The couple knew each other as friends, and they are both now involved in government. Camille is a spy and Pax is a "soldier". The two are like oil and water, however these characters want to follow their hearts and be together. Towards the end of the book we realize what is really important to them. There are other characters at work trying to destroy Pax and Camille, and their love. I have read other books by this author and I will in the future. I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review from Night Owl Reviews, however all opinions are my own.
