HISTORICAL ROMANCE LOVERS you probably already know about this complete series, but in case you’re looking for something new (or new-to-me) and haven’t read this, it comes highly recommended!!! 😀
bev: Duke of Sin by Elizabeth Hoyt …her Maiden Lane series. I’ve been reading them recently totally out of order, just by what story catches my interest. In this the hero has been the villain in past books. He is a bit deranged and very fun. I guess she based him a big off of Loki. These are fun HR books. I like that not all her characters are aristocratic like in a lot of HR. The hero is a duke but the h is a housekeeper.
Jan: I’m also reading the Maiden Lane series (Elizabeth Hoyt). …the final novel in Elizabeth Hoyt’s Maiden Lane sexy Georgian HR series is out. Called Duke Of Desire. Oh yeahhhhhhh……. Lots of us have been waiting for that one 😉
Lucky: Did you know am in Africa but I get my TBR from you… Anyway I just wanted to recommend a historical series to you though am not sure if your a fan but I promise you will love this: It’s Maiden Lane by Elizabeth Hoyt. Promise you will love her.
About book #1:
A MAN CONTROLLED BY HIS DESIRES . . .
Infamous for his wild, sensual needs, Lazarus Huntington, Lord Caire, is searching for a savage killer in St. Giles, London’s most notorious slum. Widowed Temperance Dews knows St. Giles like the back of her hand-she’s spent a lifetime caring for its inhabitants at the foundling home her family established. Now that home is at risk . . .
A WOMAN HAUNTED BY HER PAST . . .
Caire makes a simple offer-in return for Temperance’s help navigating the perilous alleys of St. Giles, he will introduce her to London’s high society so that she can find a benefactor for the home. But Temperance may not be the innocent she seems, and what begins as cold calculation soon falls prey to a passion that neither can control-one that may well destroy them both.

Oh yeah, I did read and like this whole series. As with any series, some books weren’t quite as good as others, but they kept my interest enough overall to want to read the whole lot. You kinda step into another world and run into familiar characters from other books. And it’s great when a minor character from one book that you liked gets their own book and HEA.
If you want to try out some HR, this series could be a good place to start. BTW, they are rather *saucy*. Just sayin’ 😉
