Scandalous Desires

I WAIT for Elizabeth Hoyts books and they have never failed to meet expectations. They are so well written without constant repetition of thought just to fill pages and paint such beautiful mind pictures that you have no problem stepping into the world she has created. The characters are carefully crafted so that you are interested in what happens to them as they find their ways toward the end of the story. I especially like the fairy tale thats told on the first page of each chapter. The only problem I have with Ms. Hoyts books is that I have to wait for the next one. Bravo and thank you for hours of entertainment.

Charming Micky wasnt as appealing as most Maiden Lane heroes. Maybe to be expected from a prate? Then again, the heroine was a bit under par as well. Having bumped into this couple in some other later entries to the series, at least now Ive read their back story.
