I thought Artemis was such a kick-ass heroine. She does what she can for her brother and later Maximus. I thought Maximus started out just okay. It took most of the book for him to get his head out of his ass. Did get answers about Maximus's parents murder that he blames himself for. [spoiler] He w...

I'm finished, but I'm still kind of thinking about how to rate this. The heroine, she gets all the stars. And as Melody said, the nickname annoyed me. The hero...him, I don't know what to give him. He's obsessed, but with his own legacy. He's uncompromising on that. He's also upfront about that, an...

Whoa. This book could possibly be my favorite Maiden Lane story. I'd been waiting to read the Duke of Wakefield's story and it absolutely lived up to my expectations. Artemis Greaves is a lady's companion to her cousin Penelope when a family scandal leaves her with no other options. Her beloved tw...

I think that next to Charming Mickey and Silence's story, this is my favorite. I loved watching the Duke of Wakefield squirm and lose his precious control and order. He is a formidable man and Artemis is the perfect woman to help him lose that control. She is strong, she has to be to earn his not...

I ended up giving this one three stars even though most of the story was at a 4-star level at least. The last 25 pages though - not good. A jumble of murders, abductions, deliberately-set fires, madmen, almost-drowning of the heroine, and the revelation of the villain who murdered the hero's pa...

This historical romance started out strong, slowed a bit then action picked up with good finish. I liked the heroine's straight forward attitude for the most part but didn't care for the hero especially in the second half. Lady companion Artemis is saved from thieves by Ghost of St Giles who she d...

3 starsSetting: London, England., 1740.What changed? In case you didn't notice, I've had an on-and-off relationship with this book since its released. It was in DNF box for half of the year! However, I decided to un-DNF it and picked it and promised myself I would read and finish it no matter what a...

Duke of Midnight by Elizabeth Hoyt made me remember how much I loved her "Prince" series. After the rather uneven offerings in her "Four Soldiers" series and a few "meh" ones in her Maiden Lane series, I was ready to throw in the towel. Though one outstanding book in a rather lengthy list of disappo...
