I liked that this was set in 1700s London (and not Regency). It was a nice change. Someone is killing prostitutes in St Giles. The first one killed (or at least the first one that had someone to "care" for them) happened to be the mistress of Lazarus, Lord Caire. He decides he needs to find out who ...
Well this had a little of everything didn't it? I was so entertained through this whole book. I loved the premise and the little bit of danger and suspense-it really matched the characters. Characters? Big fan of all of them as well. Writing? Great. Where has this been all my life? This review is to...

Working my way through Elizabeth Hoyt's Maiden Lane series, I thought it would make sense to get to the first book, Wicked Intentions. I'd heard that the series picked up speed and heat-level, but I really enjoyed book #1. The story starts in St. Giles at the Foundling Home, run by Temperance and ...
The book that started it all. "I rarely feel anything. But like the legless man, I'm unaccountably fascinated by those who can dance." Our hero Lazarus started off the darkly mysterious, darkly intriguing, and darkly sexy man often found in romance. What distances him and makes him better than a...
4 helms Please follow me on my blog :) Review originally posted on Vellum Voyages What sort of crazy, adventurous ride did I just fall off?! This was one heck of a book for my first read by Elizabeth Hoyt (I WILL get to her Princes Trilogy! Honest!). Let the Maiden Lane series begin! Temperan...
Wicked Intentions got off to a bit of a rocky start. Elizabeth Hoyt has a unique (to me, at least) writing voice and it really threw me off at first. It has an old-fashioned feel that actually really fit the story quite well once I got used to the flow.Temperance was a little confusing at first. I w...

When he takes it upon himself to locate his mistress’s murderer, he uses any means necessary to get Temperance’s help. This book wasn’t ...
