This was such a fun read! It’s pretty silly but I really enjoyed it. I didn’t realize it was part of a series and now I want to go back and read all of the books!

The Wynchesters are my favorite historical romance family. The books in this series are just straight-up romps. I love the diversity, the humor, and everything else about them. I can't wait to read more about this fabulous family.

Erica Ridley continues to delight in the latest installment of the Wild Wynchesters series! Marjorie has always been one of the more enigmatic siblings for me, so I enjoyed her having some time in the spotlight and learning more about her character. Lord Adrian Webb is Marjorie’s perfect foil and their romance is a pure delight.

This started well enough. Getting to know Marjorie, who is the wallflower in the Wynchester family, & Adrian, who hasn’t been in England for seven years. Marjorie is deaf in one ear & has something to prove. Adrian is a master forger & also has something to prove. I liked their banter at first, but it quickly became more about kissing, which seemed to come out of nowhere. I didn’t feel a connection to their relationship. It just suddenly started with no build up. Plus, the pep talks became tedious and repetitive. This really didn’t seem much of a heist, because the villain was supposed be this great mastermind, but instead was basically a clown….him & his crew. I could have got by those guys! Some parts were good—love the family dynamics, but I felt no connection to the actual love story and found quite a bit repetitive.

A Fab Addition to the Series.
Marjorie Wynchester is a gifted artist and an adept forger. However she only forges to help her siblings right wrongs and is horrified to hear of a counterfeiter whose false coin is defrauding poor widows. Such is her anger that rather than stay in the background of one of her family capers, she insists on taking the lead. Once undercover she begins to feel that maybe the forger is not as black as he was painted!
I was gifted a copy of this title by the publisher and NetGalley and have voluntarily read/reviewed it. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Amusing, charming and so sweet! Loved it! But then again I love regency romance and fun storylines that are entertaining and filled with loveable characters.

This one was a big improvement to me. I love that the Wynchesters are all so different and interesting, but that does mean that occasionally I simply do not like one of their stories. Marjorie is brave and interesting and very capable, all of which I love. I'm glad she finally got to be the heroine in her story.

My Rogue to Ruin is book number four in The Wild Wynchesters series. This was my first read in the series and I think it worked perfectly fine as a standalone. I'm a sucker for enemies to lovers and this one was well done. I loved the love-hate vibes of Marjorie and Adrian and the progression of their relationship. I really found myself rooting for them both by the end.
Thank you to NetGalley and Forever for providing me a digital reviewer copy in exchange for my honest thoughts.

I love the Wynchesters so much, I want to give them all a hug for real. Each book is so cozy, even when the stakes are high and I'm kind of stressed??? I love how relatable Marjorie was (and I truly think after each book that they're the most relatable one). Erica Ridley just has a way of making me attached to all her characters.
One thing to note though, is that Tommy started the novel using she/they pronouns, however the "they" was just dropped off after the first chapter never to be seen again? Was that a mistake?

I just need to accept that none of the winchesters will be as good as the first one. This was campy and felt over done. I don’t love the repeated heist angle and the weirdness of the Winchester gang grows weary some,

The Wild Wynchesters is a comfort series of mine. Erica Ridley has written a found family that makes me so happy. I love that we finally got Marjorie’s story in MY ROGUE TO RUIN because she has always intrigued me in previous books. My favorite thing about the Wild Wynchesters series is that the books can be read as standalone or enjoyed as a series; I prefer reading them as a series because the family antics enhance the stories!
Marjorie, a character I deeply admire, is partially Deaf due to smallpox. What I find truly heartwarming is how the family, without any hesitation, adapts to her needs. They don’t expect her to conform to their ways. They communicate with her in a way that suits her, using sign language and speaking so she can hear. It’s a testament to the family’s inclusivity and understanding.
Each Wynchester novel has a wonderful case that the family is solving, with the sibling on the cover being the lead. Marjorie’s case involves exposing a forger, which is something she excels at. The slow-burn antics she gets into with Lord Adrian Webb while trying to solve the case gave me another Wild Wynchesters novel to adore!
Thanks, Forever and Netgalley, for the arc!

Thank you Forever and NetGalley for the eARC and gifted copy of My Rogue to Ruin! All opinions in this review are my own.
I absolutely love the Wynchester series and My Rogue to Ruin lived up to the hype!
I liked seeing Marjorie as a main character since she is one of the quieter siblings in the other books. I also liked that she went into the scheme thinking Adrian was such a terrible person but ends up falling for him in the end. As much as I love Marjorie and Adrian, I think my favorite character had to be Tickletums, the homing hedgehog! Every mention of him just made me laugh.
I already pre-ordered the fifth book in the series, Hot Earl Summer, which will be Elizabeth's story due out in August!

Adore this world and these characters. I am a huge reader of historical romance and Erica Ridley is one of my top authors. I just will read anything she writes and this one is definitely one of the best. Everyone who enjoys good stories and true love should read this book.

Thank you net galley for the advance reader copy of this novel. This is regen era that I typically read but couldn't get into this one.

This was my first time reading a 'The Wild Wynchesters' book and I must now read more of them! This book was just so much fun and the characters have personality to the brim. They're all chaotic with so much banter and the action never stops.
Adrian and Marjorie have really great chemistry. They both initially start of 'shy girl' and 'rake' and evolve so naturally and beautifully over the book. Adrian tries to channel playboy, but he's like Flynn Rider, a babygirl. <3
I love how the two went from strangers, to skeptic comrades to absolutely shameless lovers. If you asked me to tell you what the plot was, I couldn't tell you tbh. I found this story to be more character-driven with the exploration of diverse family types, vulnerability in relationships, and disability. I need to read the other installments and find out more about Marjorie's ragtag group of siblings and their equally as chaotic mystery-solving partners.
[3.75 stars]

This was such a blast to read and Marjorie has a great growth arc through the book, really coming into her own and finding confidence in what she brings to the table. The romance was sexy and fun, with plenty of danger along the way

This was a cute, contemporary regency era story! While it's part of a series, it can be read as a stand-alone with no problem. There's a disability rep since the FMC is partially deaf and she has the best found family. This book contains elements of humor, drama, and action that hold the reader's attention but don't feel too intense. This one is a nice, easy read and you should go into it as such! Thak you NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for the eARC in exchange for my honest review!

Thank you to Netgally, the publishers, and Erica Ridley
When I requested this book I was unaware that it was apart of a series, one that requires you to read the previous books for this one to make sense. I am unable to read all the previous books along with this one before the publish date. Therefore, I will rate this a fair 3/5 stars and will adjust the rating and review when I am able to read all the books in the series along with this one.

I tried so many times to read this book but I just could not get into it. I know you don't technically have to read companion novels in order but I think it might have been helpful if I had read the others in this series.

i love Erica's work she always adds a bit of whimsey and fun to her stories. These lovers wont come easy to the completion of their story, Lots of romance and sweetness. A great addition to the series.
