Have you never wondered about the pasts of her rakes, rattles, and gentlemen rogues? Surely, there's more than one side to their stories.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a universal truth: we are captivated by smoldering looks, daring charms ... a happy-go-lucky, cool confidence. All the while, our loyal confidants are shouting on deaf ears: \"He is a cad--a brute--all wrong. \" But is that not how tender hearts are broken...by loving the undeserving? How did they become the men Jane Austen created? In this romance anthology, eleven Austenesque authors expose the histories of Austen's anti-heroes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eDangerous to Know: Jane Austen's Rakes \u0026amp; Gentlemen Rogues\u003c\/em\u003e is a titillating collection of Georgian era short stories- a backstory or parallel tale off-stage of canon- whilst remaining steadfast to the characters we recognize in Austen's great works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat say you?
