review 1: This series is amazing, which everyone perusing the reviews must know by now. I am glad I waited (unintentionally!) to start the series until there were so many to enjoy. I'm having the wonderful Christmas of reading a new Maiden Lane book every night after the kids are put to be...

review 1: I found this one a little disappointing, but then, I wasn't too wild about Wicked Intentions either. Hoyt is a good writer and she knows how to tell a story. Still, I found this one to be a bit too routinely written and somewhat uninspired. I really liked Lady Hero when she appea...

review 1: Another disappointment, I'm afraid. It pains me to be negative, as the author seems quite lovely here a and at Facebook. Yet, this was, overall, a disappointing read. It had enjoyable moments, but much of it was skimable filler, particularly in the first half (too much repetit...

review 1: I'm seriously on a Elizabeth Hoyt obsession right now. This woman can write no wrongs! This book was amazing! The last few chapters had me on the edge of my seat! It's 1am and I could not put this book down until I finished it! Mickey is in my top 5 favorite heros. I loved how we...

review 1: I picked up this novel since I wanted another Georgian historical romance series to read after reading Eloisa James' books. I LOVE Eloisa James' books, they're delightful! But what I loved about her books, the extravagant clothes, the coiffures, the details of the era, was lackin...

review 1: Ahummm, I'm finding I like this mini short stories inside this novels. So now it's about Queen Ravenhair. The question stands, why must the elegant people or world apart people marry someone low or frankly, the rich to a poor? Really, it's so cliche but not to worry cause Griffin...

review 1: I loved this book! I was so glad to read about two kindred spirits who have suffered loss and found love again. Not to mention that I felt this version of the Ghost of St. Giles was more apt than the previous. He had a plausible reason for devoting his life to the cause of helpin...
